Show 5590 Hite- RX 3597 40 Q Then your objective was Richardson, was it? A No; Moab. Richardson was only part of the trip. Q Well, what I am trying to get at, Mr. Hite, is whether you were making a general study of the river between those points, or whether you had some definite place that you wanted to go and look at and inspect? A I was going down to inspect placer bars or claims that belonged to some people in Salt Lake and Greenriver who sent me down there to examine these claims, to see whether or not they were profitable. Q that is what I am trying to get at. Then you were on your way to see certain specific claims and make a report on them? A Yes, sir. Q Now, where were those claims located with respect to Cisco? A Well, I think the first one was about 30 miles below Richardson post office. Q I see. Now, did you get saddle horses on the trip? A No, we did not. |
