Notes: OREGON-BASED CLAIMANT filing in California. 50 cfs (not miner's inches) — a different measurement system suggesting engineering/corporate sophistication. Pine Creek power development at T48N R15E — same Pine Creek as Gibbins/Mulkey non-consumptive claims in Book 1. Two ditches to power house. Recorded at request of H.A. Fleming, Jan 30, 1906.
