Then the hotels and bar rooms were the rendezvous, and life in the camp seemed to begin. These were the surroundings of the daughter of the innkeeper when Jim Fair, one of the miners,courted and won her. They were married at Angel's and lived there for some time. Then they went to Nevada, where luck followed them, and everything they touched for years after turned to goid.
