Excerpt from A History of California and an Extended History of Los Angeles and Environs, Vol. 2: Biographical These two brothers went at once to the mines, and for several years followed the wash ing of gold with varying but rather indifferent success. Here, through the exercise of that thrift and frugality which had been instilled into them in a home where principle and char acter and common sense constituted the ani mating spirit rather than more idle catchwords of daily life, they managed to save a few thou sand dollars, which they first invested in a small mountain farm supplying produce to the mines.

The indefatigable Salva-Tierra was now stooping beneath a weight of years and disorders; the stone, with which he had been long afflicted, became more violent; but his zeal would not allow him to remit his useful labours, except when he was not able to stand, and even then he took care to direct every particular with the greatest cars and attention. It was however too soon conspicuous, that his labours drew near their period. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A History of California and an Extended History of Its Southern Coast Counties, Vol. 2 of 2 Mr. Bard was made a Mason in Ventura and is now a member of Oxnard Lodge, F. A. M., and of Oxnard Chapter, R. A. M., and of the Ventura Commandery, K. T. He is a member and liberal supporter of the Presby terian Church, and a man of superior integrity and rectitude. There is a pronounced yet un explainable influence felt in the presence of some people that can be accounted for in no other way than that it is caused by the in ward thoughts and high motives of the per son to whom thev are ascribed. \vhen in the presence of such a man one feels, instinctive lv. That he has lived a pure and upright life and is one who can be trusted implicitly with out fear that any confidence imposed in him will be betrayed. There is no necessity to eulogize a man of the well known reputation and eminence of Senator Bard, yet it will not be out of place to mention that he possesses to a remarkable degree this personal magnet ism, as it is popularly called. While naturally endowed with the qualities which win the love and esteem of his fellow men, there is a strength of purpose in all his actions without which it would be impossible for him to live the blameless life he has with a career so filled with public and private duties as have fallen to his share.

Excerpt from The History of California With California history, on the other hand, back of 1821, the date of the establishment of Mexico's independence from Spain, the whole story is one of European history, of European govern mental plans and policies, and not until that date did its history become in any sense American. The result is that a history of events on these western shores before that date needs a complete knowledge of concordant European history to furnish the key. Take, for instance, the splendid work of the navigators: unless we have the informing knowledge of what went on behind the scenes. In Europe at a corresponding period, our history of the struggle of those interesting centuries, no matter how heroic.

Excerpt from The Missions and Missionaries of California, Vol. 2 The field covered by this work has proved so vast that it was found necessary to treat what is of general interest separately from that which is of but local concern in order to avoid confusion and endless repetitions. The result is the division into General and Local History. The General Ac count fills this and the next two volumes. The Local History with the biographical notes on all the missionaries will require two more volumes. Although great pains have been taken to insure accuracy, it is quite possible that errors have crept into the narrative. We are but human.
