- Princeton (#612): Gold plays a large role in the history of Princeton, once known as Vermillion Forks. Bill Barlee recalls stories of gold at the end of Main Street, and in the basement of the local hospital.
I never get bored watching these old videos! By the way Colin my father had a collection of magazines by mr. Barlee and after my dads passing they disappeared, are there any re copies of his magazines ? And where could I obtain them ? I believe the original price of one was $2.95 +.5cents tax! This is going back to the 70’s I believe! Thanks Colin keep those shows coming 👍
stories, and this guy tells em like no other!
"I have the best bank in the whole world. A gravel bank and I draw gold from it when ever I wish." Said when men and women were golden.
"Ill just keep it" hahahahahaha, backfire lol
