1906rif. 76852Tonopah: N.p. 1906-06. Two legal Agreements and other ephemera detailing the proposed sale of the Keane Wonder Mine in Death Valley owned by John Keane and Domingo Etcherran to E. H. Wedekind for $150000 in 1905. The 1905 Agreement is 6 pp. printed on rectoss only and details a payment plan fofr Wedekind It is signed by John Keane and Domingo Etcherran and their attorney Thomas Keane attorney signed for all parties as it is likely that John Keane and Domingo Etcherann were Illiterate. The seond official Agreement is only two pages long and it is attorney-signed for the J. Keaned and D. Etcheran and this one was signed by E. H. Wedekind. It just seems to add a proviso that the two men couldd continue theri mining until January 20th of 1906. The original Agreement was never signed by Wedekind and obviously fell through. Homer Wilson and John Campbell were the final purchasers again in 1906 of the twenty claims that comprised theKeane Wonder Mine. Keane Wonder Mine. Agreement 1905. E. H. Wedekind to purchase the Keane Wonder Mine from John Keane and Domingo Etcherran for $150000 with $10000 down. The 1905 contract was drawn up in Tonopah NV and it is not signed by by E. H. Wedekin Five yellow legal pages unsigned with pencil notes concerning deferred payments stock payments payment timing an option memo to John Keane and bond information. Similar terms had been offered to Captain J. R. Delamar in 1904; he was given one year to pay but failed to do so whereupon the mine reverted to Keane and Etcharran and Wedekind was sought as a new purchaser. Wedekind was a prominent California mining engineer incorporator of the Falls City Belt Line Railroad fiscal agent for the Elgin Quicksilver Mines until finally striking it rich in Ryholite. The yellow legal pages bear a “Sunset” watermark listed in the 1910 directory as belonging to H. S. Crocker of San Francisco. 2011-114 N.p. unknown

Fernald. Both sheets printed in red and black. Very good condition with no flaws worth mentioning. According to RBH the last such certificate was auctioned in 2007.The narrow gauge Death Valley Railroad was built in 1914 as a branch line of the Pacific Coast Borax Company to service its new mines at Ryan. The narrow gauge railroad hauled Borax from the mines in the vicinity of Ryan to the Tonopah & Tidewater Railroad 20 miles away at Death Valley Junction. The upper part of the line required extensive grading and many high trestles. The railroad scheduled a single daily-except-monday mixed train which traveled across the desert at 15 miles per hour. The railroad ceased regular operation in 1928 after the opening of the large Borax mine near Boron California. An attempt was made to operate the line as a tourist railroad but without success Pacific Coast Borax Company unknown

1734In 8, pp. (2b) + 46 + (2). Stemma xilogr. al fr. Ex libris al verso della sguardia. Legatura coeva in p. pg. Statuti della Confraternita delle anime del Purgatorio di Roma il cui scopo principale - come dichiarato nel primo capitolo - e' 'l'esercizio di opere di Pieta', e di devozione con profitto spirituale de' Fratelli'. Tra gli uffici della Confraternita c'e' anche quello di assistere i condannati a morte: quando e' dichiarata la condanna a morte di un prigioniero, si stabiliscono un numero di messe 'ad postulandam gratiam bene moriendi'. Il giorno antecedente l'esecuzione si recitano continue orazioni 'da applicarsi in sollievo dei delinquenti, e nel giorno della morte dopo l'ore 20, per suffragio de' medemi, invigilera' che da Fratelli si reciti nella nostra Chiesa l'Officio intero di requie'. Il giorno successivo alla morte viene fatta celebrare una messa cantata con l'assistenza di 33 'povere vedove preventivamente invitate' alle quali viene distribuito in segno di ricompensa un giulio ciascuna 'per suffragio di quell'anima'. Il denaro raccolto dalle cassette delle elemosine dovra' essere impiegato per la celebrazione di altre messe. A tal fine sara' redatto un libro nel quale compare da un lato il nome del giustiziato e dall'altro il denaro raccolto durante le messe celebrate per lui. Si allega un foglio sciolto (cm 20 x 27,5) con stemma della Confraternita xilogr. in testa. Si tratta del foglietto che veniva distribuito alle 'carissime sorelle' per invitarle a presenziare alle oblazioni delle messe.
