A 600 by 1500 foot quartz-bearing claim named Revelation and Justice was filed today in the county clerk’s office within the city limits. Located between Gaylord street and Ohio avenue and Jefferson and Mercury streets, it sits among adjacent claims Solid Muldoon Ottaco and May and Maud, and covers part of the Emery placer recently patented to Tong, Emery and others after a long dispute.
