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 MODERN GLASSES Throat DR.
