These choices were complex and varied from clan to clan and village to village. Americans arrived and permanently settled in San Diego, California in 1846 during the Mexican War. By 1850 California had become a part of the United States. In 1848, gold was discovered in northern California and American Easterners received word of free, rich lands to the west. Luiseño, Iipay, Diegueño and Cupeño Indians adhered to their wisest choices in survival strategies according to the abrupt and immense changes that were overcoming them such as the organization of American law that affected them profoundly, American thievery of Indian land and resources, forced removals of villages and the establishment of reservations. Indian lives would never be the same. As Americans continued to flood onto Indian lands, Indians came under more and more pressure. During this time period, Indians vii responded with many strategies for survival from diplomacy to revolt, always choosing what was best for their families and the coherence of their socio-cultural foundations. These strategies carried and reflected the thread of ancient Indian culture, as the Luiseño, Diegueño, Iipay and Cupeño used their traditional cultural manners, traditions, oral law and customs to balance and correct the traumatic experiences raining down on them as they adapted to loss of land and resources. Luiseño, Diegueño, Iipay and Cupeño succeeded in their survival and are still alive and thriving today in the mountains of northern San Diego County. Some of their socio-cultural structure is not being utilized today, at the turn of the twenty-first century, as they have adapted to the American wave of colonization. However, they have succeeded in living wisely in two worlds and still keep Indian identity intact. viii Table of Contents Chapter 1 – The Arrival of America: Transitioning Once Again ………………………1 Chapter 2 – Strange Ways: Transitions with Oral Sovereignty and Written Law………42 Chapter 3 – Diplomatic Leadership: The Treaties of Temecula and Santa Ysabel…….120 Chapter 4 – People in Motion: Removals and the Reservation System………………..159 Chapter 5 – Whispers in the Wind: Celebrating Survival and Preserving the Past…….205 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………...249 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………251 ix Chapter 1: The Arrival of America: Transitioning Once Again By 1846, when the war between the United States and Mexico reached Indian populations in the mountains and valleys of northern San Diego County, Indians had already experienced two major transitions. The first was the arrival of the Spanish padres and soldiers in 1769. The second included both the transition that Indians and Californios brought to California after Mexico’s independence from Spain in 1821 and the secularization of the missions that followed around 1834. All of these situations required specialized survival strategies. The next and most injurious transition was the arrival of the Americans, which has still not seen its end. Indians today are still in survival mode. In 1846 Indians in the valleys of Warner Springs, Santa Ysabel, and San Pasqual became involved in historic events that occurred in and around their villages from December 3 to December 6. These indelible events include the entry of American troops into California and the Battle of San Pascual.1 Many changes came to Indians that lived in the mountains of northern San Diego County after the Americans arrived. The Garra Revolt would also become an event that separated allegiances between Indians as well as Indians and Californios, and Indians and Americans. These challenges forced varied survival strategy decisions throughout the area. Indians found themselves in decision-making positions concerning strategies to deal with these new invading Americans and to keep balance within Indian communities. 1 In order to gain control of California at the commencement of the Mexican- American war, the United States sent Colonel Stephen Watts Kearny with Kit Carson and Companies C and K of the First Dragoons on the trail from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to California. Their orders were to assist in overthrowing the Californios under the leadership of the Mexican government and to take control of California. The heavily traveled trail, which the American troops took into California, was until an old route between the pueblo of Los Angeles and Sonora.2 The trail led through Cupeño territory near the Indian village of Cupa, presently in north eastern San Diego County. This portion of the territory, once known as Agua Caliente because of its hot springs, was renamed Warner Springs in 1844 after John Warner, the American owner, was granted Mexican citizenship. He had received the land from Governor Pio Pico. At the Cupeño village site of Cupa, at the headwaters of the San Luis Rey River, Warner’s land included the hot springs where locals from San Diego city and southern California came for health cures. Warner had also added a trading post. The Cupeño, whose village site had been there from c.500 - 1000 CE, became laborers and cowboys for Warner.3 According to the diary of Dr. John S. Griffin, the surgeon traveling with Kearny: 1 Lt. Col. W.H. Emory, Notes of a Military Reconnaissance, From Fort Leavenworth, in Missouri, to San Diego, in California,

  • The Notion of Song, Identities, Discourses, and Power
    The Notion of Song, Identities, Discourses, and Power: Bridging Songs with Literary Texts to Enhance Students’ Interpretative Skills Elroy Alister Esdaille Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Elroy Alister Esdaille All Rights Reserved Abstract Sometimes students struggle to interpret literary texts because some of these texts do not lend themselves to the deduction of the interpretative processes with which they are familiar, but the same is not true when students pull interpretations from songs. Is it possible that students’ familiarity with songs might enable them to connect a song with a book and aid interpretation that way? This study attempted to explore the possibility of bridging songs to literary texts in my Community College English classroom, to ascertain if or how the use of song can support or extend students’ interpretive strategies across different types of texts. I investigated how songs might work as a bridge to other texts, like novels, and, if the students use songs as texts, to what extent do the students develop and hone their interpretative skills? Because of this, how might including songs as texts in English writing or English Literature curriculum contribute to the enhancement of students’ writing? The students’ responses disclosed that the songs appealed to their cognition and memories and helped them to interpret and write about the novels they read. Moreover, the students’ responses revealed that pairing or matching songs with novels strengthened interpretation of the book in a plethora of ways, such as meta-message deduction, applying contexts, applying comparisons, and examining thematic correlations.

(San Diego) Color: Uncolored Condition: VG Size: 70 x 62 inches Price: SOLD Description: Harnessing the Mountain Waters of San Diego, County -- Creating What Was Then California's Second Largest Artificial Lake Colossal topographical map of Warner's Ranch, San Diego County, California, prepared in 1916, prepared in connection with the project to dam the San Luis Rey River and create Lake Henshaw. While the scale of the map is impressive, its purpose is well-hidden at the lower left, where the words "Warner Dam" appears at the narrowing of the valley, where the San Luis Rey River begins a northwesterly course through the mountains toward the Pacific Ocean. The map was prepared by Volcan Water & Land Company, as part of an attempt by William Griffith Henshaw and Colonel Edward Fletcher to impound the waters flowing through the ranch into the San Luis Rey River, a plan that was first hatched by Henry Huntington. At the time of the map's creation, the project to build a dam to create Lake Henshaw and harness a reliable water source to develop coastal the lands of North San Diego, which had begun in 1911 had stalled during World War I (1914-1918). The present map was prepared during the period shortly after Henshaw and Fletcher had contracted with John Eastwood to design what would become the Lake Henshaw dam in 1914.

A grandson of the gallant Truxtun, Beale was bom in the Navy and his early life was passed at sea. However, he fought with the army at San Pasqual and when night fell upon that indecisive battlefield, with Kit Carson and an anonymous Indian, by a daring journey through a hostile country, he brought to Commodore Stockton in San Diego, the news of General Kearny's desperate situation. Beale brought the first gold East, and was truly, in those stirring days, what his friend and fellow- traveller Bayard Taylor called him, "a pioneer in the path of empire." Resigning from the Navy, Beale explored the desert trails and the moimtain passes which led overland to the Pacific, and later he surveyed the routes and built the wagon roads over which the mighty migration passed to people the new world beyond the Rockies.
