Info Title:
Mr. Carl Johnson
CARL JOHNSON

Among the men who have leased in the district and made money is Carl Johnson. Unlike many, he took his proceeds and purchased property and developed, believing in the future of the camp.

Mr. Johnson, after several had failed in finding ore in the famous old Half Moon, encountered ore and mined close to a half a million dollars' worth of it.

His strike, which occurred in the fall of 1897, caused intense excitement in the city and stimulated development on Gold hill.

After his lease expired on the Half Moon Mr. Johnson purchased the Nada and Ouray claims, just below the Half Moon. When he had opened a good body of ore on the claims, the late W. S. Stratton commenced buying Gold hill acreage, and made Mr. Johnson such a good offer that he sold.

Mr. Johnson is now operating, under lease, the Kittie M. claim of the Anaconda, adjoining the Half Moon, and has recently opened the extension of the great ore body that he operated in the latter property.

Mr. Johnson is strong in his belief that the future of the Cripple Creek district is beyond the dreams of the most sanguine. He is a solid and substantial citizen of Cripple Creek, and is always ready to further the best interests of the camp.
