Case involving the Great St. George mine, [St.Agnes and Perranzabuloe Parishes) covering three columns of exact testimony. As the case is intricate, and involves land boundaries & payment for ore, only a list of witnesses is included. [Actually, the case was printed in the next two issues of the paper; it was very involved, and one main point was that the land had to be worked nine months out of the year, or ownership reverted to the lessor. A very, very profitable vein of ore had been found, and was making the current owners very wealthy.]
