Davis as President and (illegible) as Treasurer. No vignette. Ornate orange border and safety print. U/C. Printer - John A. Lowell Bank Note Co., Boston, No. 5 Measures 12" x 8". No reference to this company was found in our library. A Chaparral MC leased the Jessie mine from 1909-1916, but eventually ran out of money. A placer gold claim called the Chaparral lode in the Big Bug district of Yavapai was also present. This company was placed in Yavapai because of the presence of the Chaparral mining camp [Barnes, Arizona Place Names, 1988].
