Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The County of Peterborough: Directory for 1870-71
Peterborough is a county of great natural wealth, and all it needs to take its place as one of the greatest counties in the pro vince is a thorough development of its great natural resources; and here it may not be out of place to add that the great mineral wealth of the back pait of the county has induced men of capital to form several companies for its development amongst which I may mention the Galway Lead Mining Company, which, owing to the energy displayed by its man 1ging director, Mr. H. C. Rogers, of Peterborough, bids fair to favourably compare with any lead mining company on the continent.
