San Francisco Call, 2 February 1900
Miner’s Lucky Strike.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
SAN ANDREAS, Feb. 1. – Dal and Mahlon Langford, two old farmers near Jenny Lind, this county, have made, a rich strike in gravel. They are working in virgin soil and are cleaning up $1000 a week. A few days, ago, they took out one piece that netted $700. The discovery has caused a great sensation in the lower foothills of the county.
(After a few weeks of Trump, we need some good cheer!)
