George Wilson (1887-1957) was a pioneer rancher in the Oracle Arizona area. In 1955 Mr. Wilson's memoirs were recorded and later printed in 1964-65, by the Arizona Cattlegrowers Association (ACGA) magazine “Arizona Cattlelog.”
William Neal of Oracle, Az was a pioneer wagon-master and freighter in the area. This story is about how two gold bars being transported by Mr. Neal from Mammoth to Tucson was lost in a flash flood in Tucson wash between Oracle and Mammoth. The story begins at paragraph three of the attachment.
If George Wilson's account of the size of the gold bars is correct, they would total about 405 Troy ounces of gold with a current value of about $972,000.
