1. Modoc Sawmills - Part #4 [1]
It was four years later when Walter Cambridge purchased Patterson Mill, located in the mountains sixteen miles from Eagleville. Patterson Mill had been built by a man named Patterson and his sons. It was later sold to Walter Johnstone, and he in turn sold it to Walter and Meager Miller in 1922. There was no road that a car could navigate on the Eagleville side. >From Swarnger Flat to the mill was only a wagon road. By the first of June a car could come in through Likely and Jess Valley as far as East C

4. Bio [1]
JAMES FEE. Few of the men now prominent in the agricultural development of Modoc county have been identified with its history for a longer period than has Mr. Fee, who is a pioneer of 1867. During the spring of that year he came to Surprise valley and bought a claim near Fort Bidwell, also pre-empted a claim adjacent hereto. As the years passed he added to his possessions from time to time until now he is the owner of about sixteen hundred acres of land, all in Surprise valley. The land was totally dest

8. GERIG, WILLIAM [1]
WILLIAM GERIG - Among the self-made men of Lassen county, no name stood higher in the estimation of the people that that of the late William Gerig, who began his career in life at the foot of the ladder of success, without other resources than his own indomitable will and sturdy industry.

11. First shipload of Gold Seekers [1]
Having read over 300 messages which appeared in my mailbox since midnight yesterday morning (Saturday), and noting that no one presented this, I will quote the following: From the RENO GAZETTE-JOURNAL, Saturday, February 28, 1998, Section 1, pg. 2: "TODAY IN HISTORY "In 1849, the ship California arrived at San Francisco, carrying the first of the gold-seekers."

12. Louis Remme's Ride [1]
Louis Remme felt just great! Things had worked out mighty well, after all. The cattle had sold good; all told, he deposited $12,500 with Adams and Company. He patted the pocket of his coat where the receipt was riding, reassured by the slight bulkiness that it made. Its touch gave him a feeling of security, knowing that his future was now secure. A man could do a lot with that kind of money! Louis Remme felt inside his coat pocket and pulled out a long-nine. Carefully he nibbled at the end of the c

25. Mail List [1]
Hi All, You may remember that I asked for someone to take over the list after I had it set up. So far, nobody has volunteered to do that. If we can't get a permanent owner to take on the list, we will as least need someone to do the administrative work in case I must leave the area for a while. (I do take vacations on occasion). The administration of a small list usually takes very little time, but there must be someone available to help anyone who wants to sub or unsub and is having a problem. The ad
