The Maple Ridge News dedicated their Looking Back column of Wednesday February 22, 2012 on Don Waite's talk, tomorrow, Thursday. For those not getting The News here is a cut-up version of the article. Unfortunately the story did not make it to their Web site. Click on the image to enlarge!
Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
In 1891,in New Westminster BC, an elderly Native man was hanged for murder. Today, legends of epic proportions link him with rich gold findings in the mountains around Pitt Lake and multiple killings. What do we really know about this man and where did the legends come from?

Memorable quotations
A gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar on top.
Gold makes a fool of us all the time. Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
Gold is where you find it.
