Immediately the ledge yielded rich gold specimens near the surface, as do all good Northern Mines, ‘‘picture gold’’, the miners called it. — Hearst perfected the legal title _ to the mine, formed a company, and began work on his first quartz mine. Now he knew he would be a millionaire. Hearst worked the Merrimac mine superficially in order to retain it under the quartz laws of the county. He knew it was a good mine, but it would cost more money to develop it than at that time he could command. Later he sold his interest to Joseph Woodworth, Thomas Findley, Henry Scadden, A. E.
