Then the people commenced rushing up from San Francisco and other parts of California, in May, 1848. . . From this time on I got only too many neighbors, and some very bad ones among them. What a great misfortune was this sudden gold discovery for me! It has just broken up and ruined my hard, restless, and industrious labors, connected with many dangers of life, as I had many narrow escapes before I became properly established.

From my mill buildings I reaped no benefit whatever, the mill stones even have been stolen and sold.

—John A. Sutter, Hutchings’ California Magazine, November 1857
