The Silver King - From Discovery to Community

 

 

TRANSCRIPT

I had better try to give you a plan of the settlement. First, one arrived at the boarding house, then the store. Here on the lower side of the road was the lower tunnel and tramway terminus. Then the road swept in a semi-circle up the hill. Here was another tunnel, a sawmill, blacksmith shop, mine buildings, offices and a few single dwellings, among them the superintendent's residence. Between the lower and upper part of the road were the other homes and school.
