Then their troubles began.
For some few months a man named Collier Robbins had resided in Silver City ; he was agent for a syndicate of New York capitalists who had invested considerable money in the camp. He had made a previous visit to Owyhee, and collected a number of rich specimens from different mines, which he took to New York, representing them as coming from mines in which he held large interests. The Civil War was nearly at an end, and paper money was at a discount in New York, so Robb...ins had no difficulty in securing sufficient funds to put 670 CHAMBERS'S JOURNAL.
a splendid quartz-mill on Jordan Creek ; and as it was ready for work when the ' Poorman ' was dis- covered, Robbius was on the alert to secure a good mine. He was not popular with the miners, as he had been detected in one or two very shady attempts to dispossess men of their claims by setting up some bogus title on behalf of fellows who were merely hired tools, and therefore his overtures to the ' Poormen ' for a lease or sale of their mine were rejected with scorn by these embryo millionaires.
