LINCOLN DAVIS & COMPANY BROKERS P.O. Box 334 GOLDFIELD, NEV. MEMBERS: GOLDFIELD STOCK AND EXCHANGE BOARD CHICAGO MINING AND STOCK EXCHANGE - 2 - I will give you a list of the Company's I have stock in or have held stock in. $2,000 shares Rochester Goldfield 1,500 " Mohawk Ledge Mining Co. 500 Atlees 1,000 " Parker Goldfield 1,000 " Muncie Goldfield, Company busted up, worthless now 25 " Condon Mining Co. $1.00 a share 1,000 " C.O.D. M & L sold 1,000 " Midnight Pawnee sold 1,000 " Bismark Mining & Leasing. Sold. I sold this in time for the company is worthless now. There is a chance for a man with ready cash to make lots of money now for the stocks are lower than they have ever been before and they are bound to come up again. Everybody here though is tied up with all their money and that is what has caused the panic. Why didn't you sell your wheat when it was near $1.00. That is just the way it goes in the stock market. You always try to wait and get the highest and finally get the lowest. Well I will wait until the afternoon before I finish this and may add a little more. Well it has been raining, thundering & hailing all afternoon and evening. Was up to Chapter tonight. Am feeling good. Hope you are all the same. Earle
