What was happening to his mines to the "Mollie K.," which was being worked on a lease; to the "Mascot," which was the subject of a legal dispute; to the "Lingering Lode," where they had been on the point of striking it very rich when he left; and to his "Garfield" claim, which Fibby Winks had jumped?
Vajon mi történt azóta a bányáiban a „Mollie K”-ban, amelyet bérbe adott; mi van a „Mascot”-tal, amely körül pörösködés folyik; mi újság a „Lassú ér”-ben, amelyben ép akkor bukkantak új, gazdag erekre, amikor ő elhagyta Topázt? És mi történt a „Garfield”-del, amelyhez való jogait Fibby Winks vitássá akarta tenni?
