The Chicago Boston Mining Company led by president D A Callahan purchased the Keystone and Laims and an undivided half interest in the Tincupy claim from Dennis Wake and Hattie A Blake widow of True Hake for 25000 dollars. The deal, evidenced by a revenue stamp attached to the deed filed Monday, marks a notable addition to the Callahan controlled Chicago Boston holdings which already include ten Kill buck claims and five additional adjoining claims.
