The air on the 2,350-ft. level passes through the main drift,while the air from the fan on the 2,250-ft. level passes into across-cut and a drift east of the main drift, returns, and joinsthe air passing through the main drift towards the Ophir winze.The high temperatures, noted previously, were taken in thisdrift before the connection was made.
