OLD GOLD MILL
MAY HIDE MINE
PHOENIX, Ar.s. (UP)-An old Span
ish gold mill, presumably used by the
Spanish conqutstadores when they
ranged the southwest In. search-of
gold, haa been discovered on a lonely
ridge north of here.
The errastra, as it was termed by
the Spaniards, apparently was work
ed by forced Indian laborers, who
trudged wearily around a circle, pull-'l
lng a heavy beam which, in turn,
dropped heavy boulders over the gold
ore placed in a trough beneath them.
The old mill was found by a pros
pector. Robert Dnpuy. The arrastra.
he Said, was at the top of a pass
known to have been used by the
Spanish adventurers 400 years ago.
Dupuy said he believed the Span
iards had a mine in the immediate
vicinity of the arrastra. possibly
pointed out to them by the Indiana
they later enslaved.
However, no truces of the mine
were found, he said. He aaidlt was
possible the Spaniards had abandon
ed it end concealed evidence of Its
presence, or that the Indians, en
raged at their treatment, had killed
the white men and then concealed
the mine to prevent Its attracting
other adventurers.
