The Great Eastern Main Shaft is now down to 96 feet from the top set of timber at 104 feet from the brace. This is very satisfactory Indeed and I trust that we shall reach the zas feet by end of Marb, when we shall go for the reefs. At present the ground shoots splendidly and I hops that our calculations will not be upset by barder ground.
