Show 4064 H. Zahn- D 2085 difference would it make, if he doesn't know what broke it? I don't think you better go on that line any longer. BY MR. BLACKMAR: Q When you returned in 1915, in what condition did you find your camp? A The buildings were completely buried, just the roof sticking out, that is all. Q What kind of material covered it up? A Sediment, sand. MR. BLACKMAR: That is all, Mr. Zahn. CROSS EXAMINATION BY MR. FARNSWORTH: Q Does the sand blow down in that country? A Yes, not so much right at the mines as it does on the way into the mines. Q It blows at the mine, though, doesn't it? A To a certain extent, yes. Q Did you ever have any other experience with buildings constructed in some stretch of sand where there are occasional winds? A I don't recall. Q Now, during what month was it that this man got away and you went down to get him and drove down the river bed? A As near as I remember, it was in August. 1902. |
