FROM A FRIEND
Inthe passing of Arthur. Willoughby Nevada City and Nevada
County has lost its most enthusiastic
booster. Particularly is this true in
the field_of mining, which he rightfully recognized as this region's most
prolific support andd he has always
done all in his power to strengthen
and advertise to the world the opportunities that are here for the mining industry.
Even while confined: at home degperately ill, hsi active mind was still
planning for the future of his paper
‘and making suggestions for the coming celebration, perhaps little realizing that fate had decided he would
nat be here to participate in it.
Arthur Willoughby was a “go
getter” in the most active sense of
the word. Of course he made some
as is most natural, but
whatever viewpoint he took it was
always for what he believed to be to
the best interests of the community,
of which he was a part.
He loved Nevada City and _ his
greatest ambition was to stay here
and to build up a newspaper in keeping with his spirit.And to you Mrs.
Willoughby goes out our most sincere sympathy and the belief and
hope that you will be able to “carry
on” the good work begun by your
husband. :
The following letter was received
from J. E. Merriam, Mt. Kisco,
New York:
New York, June 9, 1930.
Mrs. A. A. Willoughby,
Nevada City, Calif.
Dear Mrs. Willoughby:
I was so saddened, upon learning
of the passing of Mr. Willoughby.
While it was not my privilege to be
well acquainted with him, my contacts with him, either in person or
by correspondence, have been such
that he won ‘not alone my respect,
but I was beginning to be very fond
of him. There was something taking
about his personality. I love enthusiasm. It was present in such a
large measure in his personality that
it was singularly stimulating to me.
I have read the editorial about his
being “supremely happy in those surroundings, and always called it ‘God’s
sorry that I cannot be of assistance
in some way.
Very truly yours,
R. L. KIMMEL.
From Slye & Condon, attorneys of
San Francisco:
San Francisco,
June 10, 1930.
Nevada City Nugget, :
Nevada City.
Dear Mrs. Willoughby:
Will you permit us to say that we
feel in the loss of your husband that
not only you -have suffered. but the
whole mining industry of Northern
California has cause for sorrow in
the passing of a fearless champion
with his heart in the cause of mining.
We understand that you are carrying on and have assumed what he
‘has left undone. May we wish that
his courage, his steadfastness, his
love for the work has been left to
you, also, as your heritage.
Cordially yours,
SLYE and CONDON.
The following is from James D.
Stewart, consulting mining eningeer,
Auburn, calif.
Auburn, Cal.,
June 10,1930.
Mrs. Elsie P. Willoughby,
Nevada City, Calif.
Dear Mrs. Willoughby: ~
Mr. Willoughby’s untimely death
was a shock to all his friends, and a
distince loss to the mining interests
and fraternity of Placer and Sierra
as well as in Nevada county. Arthur
had a «way of hunting out mining
news that was a gift.
Sincerely,
JAMES D, STEWART.

Cards have been received by local
people inviting them to attend the
dedication of Trinity Church, .Los
Angeles, of which Rev. Hubert V.
Harris is the rector. Nevada Citians
will remember Rev. Harris as a

Nevada City, where he has many
friends. It is largely through his efforts that the Los Angeles Church
was built.

Country.’’’ I can understand just
how he felt about. I feel the same
way myself. Somehow or other when
I go out there, I take a new lease on
life. All the romance of my boyhood
days is revived and restored. I do
not want to be a traitor to this community and locality which has been
in a measure kind to me, and where
I have undertaken my life’s work,
but you see, I am a product of the
old New Hampshire hills, and how
often have I heard my father preach
on the topie “I shall lift up my eyes
to the hills from whence cometh my
strength.’”’ I believe that no man of
good birth, breeding and fair upbringing can live long in those northern counties. of California, such as
Sierra, Nevada or Siskiyou, and not
feel the uplift of the hills and those
mighty mountains. I find myself
yearning daily to go back there, at
lease for a sojourn ,if not permanently.
In addition to Mr. Willoughby’s
enthusiasm, I think his outstanding
traits were loyalty to his community

and to his profession, and a dogged
fearlessness which is most unusual
in these times. Somehow or other I
felt he would never compromise for
expediency. I believe he would always have stood and fought for the
right, no matter how disastrous the
result might be to his own personal
fortunes. This type is passing, and I
glory in the thought that I knew him,
and was inspired by these splendid
traits in him.
I wish I might say some-little word
to comfort you, but wou will plunge
into the wrk of “carrying on,” and
do that which would have made him
happy had he lived, by thus perfecting the good work which he so nobly
. inaugurated.
Yours very sincerely,

the pit by driving. Most of the gravel
was removed through 'the old Golconda tunnel by Chinese ledsers, who
breasted the ground for a width of
from 200 to 300 feet. On account of
the richness of the gravel they worked the channel somewhat beyond
their. property lines.
A letter, written in Chinese, now
in possession of the company, states
that much of this: ground paid as
high as $16 per car, and the stockholders are naturally very anxious to
get started on production.
