Will of A N Towne Disclosed In Private Box
Clinton BE, Warden of San Francisco and Towne's son in law, examined the late railway manager's private box and found a 1894 will leaving all property to his wife Carolina Amelia who is named executrix. The estate includes about a half million dollars in lands and city real estate and life policies totaling $25,000. No railroad bonds or stock were found. The Times reports gold in Mason valley yielding bullion around $20 per ton, prompting Spragg & Martin to move a quartz mill from Mount Grant to the Wakker river to crush ore from their mine.
