Colour view of the sign for Lowe's Fraction. The sign reads: A pie shaped piece of ground 78 feet at the widest side, left over from when Bonanza Creek was surveyed by William Ogilvie in 1897, was staked by Dick Lowe, his chainman, who reluctantly sunk a shaft finding $500,000 in gold. The richest single piece of ground in the Klondike.
