From the Lyon County town of Thompson: THOMPSON / MERCANTILE / CO. / PATRICK & CO. S.F. // GOOD FOR / 5c / IN TRADE; Br. rd., 21 mm. Following the development of copper mines west of Yerington, the Mason Valley Mines Company began construction on a large smelting complex at the north end of the valley. The first smelter, which was served by the newly completed Nevada Copper Belt Railroad (of which Thompson was the northern terminus), went to work in 1912. A small two-block townsite, known as Thompson, was created to house workers. In 1913 or 14, a second furnace was added to the smelter and the Thompson townsite grew to nearly 350, with several residential blocks, stores, saloons, and an auto repair shop.
