      General notes:
      Plat Map is boring, there are no signs to any of the street patterns that would have been part of the Cripple Creek town plan on the western part - to early I presume. Nor is there any sign of any of Midland Terminal trackage, which crosses the claims western part. Map is too early to show the Short Line grades crossing it also. In fact, lot of the Short Line grades has been on this claim, including the junction where the Low Line split from the High Line/Short Line grade up Gold Hill. Also part of the connection from Short Line to the Midland Terminal is on this claims ground according to a 1902 map I have.
      graphic for visual presentation of text The Discovery Shaft is marked very near the west end of the claim, which would make it just below the roadbed of the later to come Short Line grade in its balloon/loop down this small hill into its yard area in Cripple Creek... There is a Tunnel marked further S.E., which would be very close to the Short Line roadbed making the balloon loop back to its yard/MT connection. Other then that, there are some pieces of land left up around the Midget claim, but a Red Ink Note also talks about how the map has by metes and bounds shown the portion of the conflict between the Allegany and the Midget, included in the net area of the Allegany lode in accordance with the Judgment of the District Court of El Paso County, Colorado. This note is dated June 11th, 1896.
