Abstract

"The Desloge Mines, the subject of the present thesis, are situated in Township 37 North and Range 4 East, St. Francois Co. Mo. and are directly north of the St. Joe mines. They are 10 miles distant, in a north-easterly direction, from Cadet, a station on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Rail-Road 57 miles from St. Louis. hough Cadet is insignificant in point of population, still as a shipping point, it ranks high among those in South East Missouri; since it is the depôt and entrepôt for the Desloge, St. Joe and Old Mines" – p.
