sold for $10,800.
Oats & Delson nugget, found at Donnelly
gold field in 1880, at the roots of a tree, weighed
189 pounds, and sold for $50,000.
In addition to the above were the Heron
nugget, worth $20,000, and the Empress nug-
get, worth $27,661.
Gold in the drift deposits has been found
in larger masses in Australia than in any other
country. Many large nuggets were found in
California during the era of placer mining, but
we have no record of any to compare with those
we have described in Australia.

A Killing At Hanover
The Principal Gives Bonds And Goes Free. Two
Innocent Witnesses in Jail β -A Queer Law
A vaguely indefinite account of the report-
ed killing at Hanover, has reached us. A re-
porter of this paper has tried unsuccessfully to
gather some authentic account of the tragedy,
but in vain. We present what purport to be the
facts in the case, and leave comment for those
more fully informed.
