Working on the skeleton. Core is being bored as we speak. Having some trouble getting core to stand on its own. Please send instruction booklet on core stands. "Harry arrived in Northern Ontario with $2.65 in his pocket. (Harry sounds like he arrived rich compared to me. When I arrived in the North I did not even have pockets.) When he left for the Bahamas he had amassed a fortune of over $200 million." On January 18, 1912, in partnership with the four Tough brothers, Harry staked the claims that became the first operating mine in the area, the Tough-Oakes Mine. One of its headframes still stands at the eastern edge of town near Northern College. We know it today as the Toburn. (I have photos of that mine) Harry later staked claims along the shores of Kirkland Lake. He sold his shares in the Tough-Oakes mine to partially finance what became known as the Lake Shore Mines, which became one of the richest gold mines in the world. **********************************
