STRANGE DOINGS on LAKE TAHOE -- The Placerville 'Courier' of Dec. 1st records the following strange sight on the great lake of the mountains: About 2 months since, during the month of Sept., a singular and curious phenomenon occurred on Lake Tahoe, nearly abreast of A.H. SAXTON's sawmill. The lake at the time was calm and quiet, when suddenly the water boiled and bubbled up without any apparent cause. The water arose in a conical form some 5 or 6 feet in height, and in a circle of some 8 or 10 feet, then subsiding formed a whirlpool, drawing everything within its vortex. On the succeeding day the same singular occurrence took place, and was witnessed by a number of persons employed about the mill. After the commotion had subsided on the 2nd day, one of the men employed on the lake shore took a small boat and rowed out to the spot that had been in such a ferment, who, upon placing his hands in the water, found that it was very warm. At the place where this occurred there is a! deep hole which has been sounded to a depth of 75 or 80 feet; outside of this indentation of the bottom of the lake the depth of water is only 30 or 40 feet. 2 years and more ago, this hole was noted as an excellent fishing place, but for the past 2 years no fish have been taken there. Those familiar with this portion of the lake think it is the crater of an extinct volcano. >>TUESDAY, 11 DEC 1866>WEDNESDAY, 12 DEC 1866FRIDAY, 14 DEC 1866>SATURDAY, 15 DEC 1866
