Historically interesting original document illustrating legal negotiations regarding early coal mining in Nicola Valley B.C. By the late 1890s Nicola Valley housed one of the northwest's largest and most extensive coal fields. The exceptional quality of deposits along the Coldwater River attracted significant attention sparking a surge in coal mining activity. The coal boom continued until the 1930s when depleted coal seams eventually took their toll on the local mining industry. The agreement was made between James Corbett Joseph Castillon George Murray of Nicola Lake B.C. the first party and Soren Andrew Hartman of Tacoma Washington the second party on 19 December 1903. The document authorized the transfer of licenses for six coal locations along Coldwater River from the first party to the second. It also enabled the formation of a new coal production company for these prospects with a capital stock of 2000000 shares each priced at ten cents. The agreement was signed by the members of the parties and a witness “Jas.” S. Andrew Hartman 1851-1910 of the second party was a retired wholesale merchant and the vice-president of Western Coal & Iron Co. of Portland Oregon. In May 1904 a few months after this legal deed Hartman established the Nicola Coal & Coke Company with a capitalization of $2000000. By 1905 an extensive advertisement in the Boston Globe sought investments boasting the company's possession of 3840 acres of coal lands and a treasury balance of $1000000. The company lasted relatively successfully until the early-1910s when it was dissolved after Hartman's death. Overall historically interesting legal agreement from the early days of the Nicola Valley B.C. coal mining industry. Excerpts from the document: “Agreement made and entered into this nineteenth day of December 1903 by and between James Corbett Joseph Castillon and George Murray of Nicola Lake B.C. of the first part and S.
