Just think what owning half the property in the busy, thriving town of Trail would mean to-day. It was fourteen years later that Mr. Trethewey, while prospecting, discovered the famous properties in Cobalt. which made him a millionaire. or, the Conagas” but who now pur- sues the quiet life of a gentleman farmer on-his model farm at Weston, ‘Untu has probably cleaned up more cold cash out of Canada’s‘unrivalled silver area than any other man who ever planted foot in the camp. Some may remark that he has been ex- ceptionally lucky, but Mr. Trethewey, like most other people, has had his fl/ll quota of ups and downs. He learned the trade of a steam-fitter, but has played every part in the mining game from a grub-staker to a squatter. Nearly twenty years ago he was dangerously near the million- ;aire class several times but did not «new it. He lacked the nerve. . In 1090 he was offered a half inter-’ est for $300 in the famous Le Roi gold . mine in lsi'itish Columbia. The prow perty had just been discovered. and was not regarded as very promising. Later it sold for nearly thrw’million dollars. That same year Mr. Trethe- wey had another gilt-edged opportun- i ity.
