Many years ago a meteorite tell on the Wilson farm not far from Cornwall. Prince Edward Island. The strange fireball was aighwd by the Mwcormick sisters, Mary and Margaret. The obiect appeared in the sky about 10 p.m. The sisters watched it coming from the direc- tion of Charlottetown, its path could be traced to a point above the East Wlltshlre Road where it exploded with '-' able noise, and then fell directly across the

. road onto the Wilson farm.

The next morning the sisters went to lnvmtigatc and lo and behold they found the object of their search buried some two feet in the earth. It was the size of a musk- melon and looked like a burned out piece of coal, the sisters said. Meteorites are difficult things to pin down, yet scientists must admit that meteors do exist, and some actually fall to earth - like the one seen by the Maccormick sisters many years ago.

What strange power enabled Eilley Bowers to divine the rich- est sliver mine in history - or was it Just a hunch?

Back in 1358. in a shack in the mining town of Johnstowri, Utah Territory, Eilley Bowers gave the following cue to 9. bewhiskered prospector by the name of Peter O'R.iley: "There's a valuable de- posit up on the hill near the ravine. It's yours for the trapping. It will be the richest mine ever discover- ed."

.1... .....w--- . a

rather than get tangled up in a lawsuit O'R.iiey took him into the deal and the famous lode was given his name. Eilley also became a partner in the fabulous mine.

She and her husband built the Bowers mansion at a cost of 3:00,- 000 and furnished it with trim- mings and what have you to the tune of another 9100.000. And why not? The property was paying all at the rate of 390,000 a month. The couple had more money than they knew what to do with. 'But ten years later, the fates decreed that Eilley would end up on skid row. Her hulnnd died and so did most of his speculations. Finally Eilley was forced to sell stock in the mine and lost the controlling intuest. From that time on it was swift descent to the valley of poverty;

The woman whose hunch had brought aefortune to several per- sons. now had to turn her mansion into a tourist resort. The venture didn't pay off, however, and two years later she was minus a home.

She went to Virginia City and lived with a friend for a time. Finally she drifted to California where she entered it home for the aged. The date waa 1000. Three years later at the age of '11 she died. 'roday she sleeps on the hill behind the mansion, and hard by the worked out lode. ,

Her former home has changed hands several times in the years that stand between, but in 1946 the Reno Women's Civic Club bought the mansion to be used as a memorial to the men and women of Nevada who gave their lives in World War II.

In the spacious entry hall may be seen a piece of scarlet brocade hanging on a rack. There are a few pictures of the rich-poor woman to be seen in the great library room - the only existing links be-
