Art Bayley drank himself to death in a few years, and many a man's on the scrap heap now, who struck it rich and lived like a lord for a few months. (K. S. Prichard, ‘The Roaring Nineties’, ch. 71) — Арт Бейли пил, пил и через несколько лет такой жизни помер, а другим старателям - многие из них роются сейчас на мусорных кучах - когда-то повезло, и они жили два-три месяца как короли.
