MARYVILLE INDEX May 15, 1878
Wednesday, May 15, 1878



The Newport Reporter is told by truthful men that Mr. Thomas Huff, who lives

on the head-waters of Wolf Creek, Cocke County, has without any dispute

discovered a vein of gold on his land, which cannot be surpassed by those of

the noted gold regions. Mr. Huff has sent specimens to mining companies, and

after being weighed, it was found to be worth 96 per cent. It is said that

other parties have made similar discoveries nearby, and the small brooks seem

to be sparkling with gold dust, which has been the only means of its

discovery. It is said that Mr. Huff will go to working it this fall.



The many friends of Rev. Ed. Elmore and wife will be pleased to learn that a

little boy has come to brighten up their life. We congratulate them on this

addition to their family.
