White, president of the company, outlining the work on the company's property near Nome, Alaska, during the last season. The dredge began working June 27 and operated 64 days, cleaning up 1582 ounces of gold, valued approximately at $28,500. During the last 45 days of the work the dredge handled an average of 1500 yards a day at a value of 35 cents a yard.
