A Letter from the President of the Company 



OFFICE OF THE 



LEAD TPUST MINE 



' 1412 WILLIAMSON BUILDING 



THE FLORAL PUBLISHING COMPANY, Springfield, Ohio. 



Dear Sir— In accordance with our recent letter, I hereby offer you 50,000 shares of 

 stock of the Lead Trust Mine, the same to be delivered to you in certificates of not less than 

 five shares each. In my opinion the subscribers of Home and Flowers will be getting a 

 thoroughly good thing in this stock. They will begin to receive dividends within eighteen 

 months, and within two years at longest the stock will sell on the market at |1.00 per share. 



The company owns two mining claims (soon to be increased to six) in Northeastern 

 Washington, convenient to two smelters, both of which are anxious to secure all the lead 

 ore possible to mix with other ores for fluxing. The product is also in good demand for 

 commercial purposes. 



Sufficient development work has been dong upon the property to determine the fact 

 that it contains enormous quantities of very rich ore. Assays taken from a depth of only 

 thirty feet gave a value of $65.48 per ton, and a car load taken from the surface gave a yield 

 of $53.40 per ton. The ore is so rich that no milling is necessary. It will be sent direct from 

 the mine to the smelter. This makes a great saving in expense as a milling plant and the 

 expense of operating is costly. 



It is capitalized at $1,000,000, with 1,000,000 shares having a par value of $1.00 each, 

 fully paid up and non-assessable. The management of the Company is in the hands of 

 careful, conservative business men who will see to it that every stockholder is thoroughly 

 protected. 



If your subscribers receive the five shares under the offer you propose to make they 

 will always thank you for giving them this opportunity. 



Sincerely yours, 



M. 0. TIBBITS, 



President Lead Trust Mine. 



MORE EXPERT TESTIMONY, 



Mr. George A. Pounder, M. E., President of the Ethel Consolidated Mines, located in

 ment of the value of mining property is considered in Washington to be second to that of 

 no other man in the business. Mr. Pounder thoroughly examined the property and re- 

 ported that the ore which is practically inexhaustible can be mined and marketed at an 

 unusually low cost per ton. He expressed the opinion that the mines cannot fail to yield 

 large dividends for years to come.
