Ferris Haggarty Mine.
Update - 2009: Black & white print showing the interior of a large wooden structure with wooden vertical slat type walls (daylight is seen through space between the boards). The ceiling area has dark heavy looking support beams exposed. The center of the planked floor has a cut out area with a wooden structure built of different angles at different sections with similar pitched sides. The area above these wooden wide "V" areas are support timbers. At side left of this device is a black pipe above which is a thin cylindrical pulley wheel to which are buckets, all able to be tracked into the area. An ore bucket with the number 100 marked in white on side is seen in the tracking groove side left with a standing workman resting his extended left arm on the support bracket. His right hand is resting on his waist at his side right. Ore bucket number 102 is barely visible at side right. There appear to be holes in the floor around the wooden structure.
