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. 0). FORMER RECTOR HER E BUILDS CHURCH AT L. A. 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 former rector of Trinity Church, Nevada City, where he has many friends. It is largely through his efforts that the Los Angeles Church was built. 0 Vv DR. RECTOR TO WED NEW YORK CITY GIRL 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 Bennetts, Dick Tuttle. From Sixth to Seventh. Miss Noyes, Teacher.

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.

I told him many times, we in Sacramento would never have had the hardfthood to attempt the job had it not been with his connivance and steady, unselfish distribution and counsel. . . : You are doing a brave thing in 4 deciding to carry on as publisher of The Nugget and I know that the Dr. John Rector will wed Miss Con cetta Bonomo in New oYrk City on June 23rd at the home of Mrs. Frederic Isham on Fifth Avenue.

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.
