8 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Field work was done by the senior author (W. A. Johnston) in Barker- ville district and in other parts of Cariboo during about two months in 1921 and during the field seasons of 1922 and 1923. A few weeks were also spent in Cariboo in the autumn of 1924. He was ably assisted in 1921 by Clive Miller, in 1922 by J. A. Maguire, and in 1923 by G. C. Lipsey and H. V. Warren. Field work was done by the junior author (W. L. Uglow) during three and one-half months in 1922. He was ably and loyally assisted by C. O. Swanson—who, during the latter part of the season, had charge of the areal mapping—and by G. C. Lipsey. The authors are greatly indebted to mining men and prospectors in the district for assistance and information. Acknowledgments are especi- ally due to John Hopp, J. G. McLaren, C. A. Banks, W. E. Thorne, L. A. Bonner, C. W. Moore, and G. A. Dunlop for information regarding the results of drilling in the district; to Laurent Muller, Joseph Wendle, F. J. Tregillus, L. A. Dodd, former Gold Commissioner, and to many other mining men in the district for information regarding the results of placer minirg; and to C. J. Seymour Baker, A. Armstrong, A. W. Sanders, and E. Moore, for information regarding the lode deposits. Acknowledg- ments to other mining men are given in the body of this report under the heading “Description of the Creeks.” BIBLIOGRAPHY Atkin, A. J.
