The Excelsior Mine produced most of the gold in the Meadow Lake Mining District and is thought to be the only profitable mine in the district. Certificate # 517 for 5 shares to J. B. Carder and signed by President, Martin White and Secretary W. Endian. Inc. 4-28-1864, Dated 5-25-67. 2000 ft, in Union No. 1 and 2000 ft. in Union No. 2 Vignette of Eagle center. Capitalized at $400,000; 4000 shares at $100 per. 25 cent Power of Attorney IR stamp. In 1863 some quartz ledges were noticed here, and the Excelsior Mining Company was incorporated. The town's heyday occurred during the period of 1865 to 1868 with the economy built on the prospect of finding substantial gold ore. In 1866, Meadow Lake was founded as the county's ninth township. This would have been around the time that Orion Clemens (Mark Twain's brother) was practicing law here. State: California City: Meadow Lake HWAC#: 41359 Date: 1867
