NEVADA COUNTY GOLD
MAKES POSSIBLE GIFT
TO IRISH FREE STATE
Recently a princely-and romantic
gift was given to the people of Ireland by ‘William Bowers Bourne,
known here as Billy Bourne . The
San Mateo man, formerly of, Nevada
City and Grass Valley, purchased
the storied. and beautiful Killarney
Lakes and turned them over, with
their grotesque crags and emerald
shores, to the Irish Free State. {It
was a gift to make the Commentators of the world say kindly things
of a California. ~
Bourne made the gift in the name
of Maude Chase Bourne Vincent, deceased daughter of the Bournes and
wife of Arthur Vincent, who is now
a Senator in the Irish Free State
and who, with his wife,, spent numerous vacations at the lakes.
Bourne’s family moved to this region when in 1869 his father, William H. Bourne Sr., arrived from the
East to operate some of the gold
mines here. At different times he
owned or controlled the Empire, N.
Star, Pittsburg and other properties. When he died in 1878 his financial affairs were found to bevin
a rather chaotic state.
It was William Bowers Bourne,
the son, who left Oxford University
to come to this district to salvage
the estate. He found the old heads
among the experienced miners of
the opinion that the Empire was
worked out, but he disregarded
their advice. Under his ownership
and leadership, another great production period came and it continued to establish his fortune and mining reputation.
In as much as William Bowers
