GRAVES My seventy years in California, 1857-1927, by J.A. Graves http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.095 LOVINGLY DEDICATED TO MY WIFE ALICE H. GRAVES PREFACE Time flies so swiftly, that I can hardly realize so many years have elapsed since I, a child five years of age, passed through the Golden Gate, to become a resident of California. I have always enjoyed reading of the experiences of California pioneers, who came here either before or after I did. The thought came to me, that possibly other people would enjoy an account of the experiences of my seventy years in the State, during which I participated in the occurrences of a very interesting period of the State's development. As, during all of my life, to think has been to act, this is the only excuse or apology I can offer for this book. J. A. GRAVES. ix CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE I FAMILY HISTORY. MARYSVILLE IN 1857. COL.

Graves http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.095 THE SORROWS OF MY LIFE 451 LVII GENERAL COMMENTS ON PROGRESS OF LOS ANGELES 467 INDEX 471 xiii INTRODUCTION One of the strongest impressions left upon me, after reading the following pages, is the realization that it is a most notable contribution to the history of California. History claims a place second to none in the roll of interesting subjects of study. The desire to know how we come to be what we are, and how the world comes to be what it is, is inborn in us all. Biography has ever furnished the best material for the historian. Between the lines of this story of the life of J. A. Graves, can be read every phase of the development of California, from the days of the decline of the mining industry to the present moment. After the waning of the mining era the people of California turned to the agricultural possibilities of the state. This included civic development, because as the agricultural resources were increased and widened, towns and cities grew. First, the grains and cereals were grown, and then deciduous fruits, and later on the grape, to be followed by the citrus fruits as a merchantable product. Incidental to this tillage of the land, and growth of cities, the titles to the land were directly involved. The base of civic, and particularly agricultural, development is the title to the land. No progress can be made except that ownership in the land is such that it insures to the owner unclouded ownership. All new countries, in their evolution to social stability, pass through this stage. Collateral to the ownership in the land, our state was peculiar in that ownership in the water that irrigated the land was of equal importance. Because of our climatic conditions, xiv with no rainfall during one-half of the year, artificial irrigation is the means by which plant life is sustained. Hence the vital necessity of ownership in the running streams and other sources of supply. There resulted, therefore, a vast amount of litigation over land titles and water rights. Mr. Graves participated to a large extent in this litigation and had a large part in bringing them to the point of stability they have now attained. My seventy years in California, 1857-1927, by J.A. Graves http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.095 Not only in the litigation against the squatters on the San Fernando Ranch, so graphically described in Chapter XVIII, not only as attorney in the Anaheim Union Water Company, but in hundreds of other instances in the current practice of the law, as attorney for abstract and title companies, his work as a lawyer was steadily directed to the settling and forever terminating doubts and questions about the titles to real property. Keeping in mind that the history of our state and city are based on the countless every-day, minor incidents as they occur, and keeping in mind that no professions exceed the influence of the lawyer and banker in the shaping, moulding and fashioning of these incidents, and that Mr. Graves was both lawyer and banker, it is deducible that his life had much to do with our local history, and that the account of his life furnishes an historical document of greatest value. As to the book itself, it is a perfect exemplification of the saying, “ Le Style c'est l'homme.” It is like the man himself, straightforward, and no mistaking his meaning. Whether in the lighter vein of anecdote or the deeper strains of the hours of suffering, there is ever present the note of genuineness and earnestness. His every sentence is vibrant with his energy, and every sentiment is expressed with that honesty which has pervaded his life. Biography can be, and many of them are, a kind of xv drum and trumpet affair, or they may be dry as dust, chronicles of uninteresting events; but this biography is studded through and through with apt, humorous and pungent anecdotes.

The discovery of gold made California a turbulent and volatile state during the first decades of statehood. The presence of the precious ore transformed an essentially pastoral society into an active commercial and industrial society. Drawn to what was once a relatively tranquil Mexican province was a disparate population from all sections of the United States and from many foreign nations. Helping to create order from veritable chaos was the California Supreme Court.

    2003 Hassert Blvd., Naperville, IL 60564 ▪ 630.922.0081 ▪ www.hscc.us • Follow us on FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER May 2, 2021 We pray for those who are sick. May God restore them to good health. We also pray for those who have died especially Nancy Goetter, mother of Jennifer Gutke, Ronald Kisiel, husband of Mabel Kisiel, and Ann Leahey, mother of Linda Roberts. May they be blessed with eternal life. May Crowning at all Masses on May 15/16 What is a May Crowning? May Crowning is a traditional ritual held during the month of May. It is a procession to the Blessed Mother statue and crowned with a wreath of flowers honoring Mary as “the Queen of May.” Why a Crowning? The queen symbol was attributed to Mary because she was a perfect follower of Christ, who is the absolute “crown” of creation. She is the Mother of the Son of God, who is the messianic King. Mary is the Mother of Christ. How to celebrate Mary at home? Create a Mary Garden which is a small outdoor sacred garden enclosing a statue of the Virgin Mary. Make a May Altar by placing a statue of Mary, a candle, and fresh or paper flowers on a table. Pray the Rosary during the month of May. HOLIEST FLOWER VINES, BRANCHES, AND FRUIT Mary is the lily in God’s garden. Few activities are as disappointing as cultivating garden plants, watering them, and ensuring that they receive —St. Bridget of Sweden sunlight and nutrients, only to receive one or two vegetables or flowers to show for all the effort.

  • Historic-Era Domestic Refuse Deposits Are a Commonly Encountered Resource Type but Do Not Always Yield Important Information Through Archaeological Data Alone
    DOMESTIC LIFE IN TURN-OF-THE-CENTURY LOS ANGELES: CONTEXTUALIZING A HISTORIC-PERIOD ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE MADELEINE T. BRAY AND MONICA STRAUSS ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE ASSOCIATES, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Historic-era domestic refuse deposits are a commonly encountered resource type but do not always yield important information through archaeological data alone. Historical records can enhance and complement archaeological data. In 2013-2014, 25 historic-period refuse deposit features were documented during construction monitoring in downtown Los Angeles. The features were associated with a brief period of residential development between the 1880s and 1920s. Review of historical materials helped to identify and interpret the nature and duration of occupation and the demography, socioeconomic status, and cultural background of the people associated with the features. Domestic refuse deposits are a frequently encountered type of historic-era archaeological feature, particularly in an environment such as downtown Los Angeles, which has been occupied by Euro- Americans since the late eighteenth century. In particular, such features are common in areas inhabited prior to the advent of municipal garbage collection in the late nineteenth century, when residents would often dispose of garbage in pits or as sheet refuse on their properties. In 2013-2014, 25 refuse deposit features were recorded during the course of construction monitoring in downtown Los Angeles in advance of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) La Kretz Innovation Campus project. The archaeological features were recorded as a single site under the trinomial CA-LAN-4460H. The site is located within the Arts District of Downtown Los Angeles and encompasses a 3.16-acre city block, surrounded by Palmetto Street on the south, Colyton Street on the west, Fifth Street on the north, and Hewitt Street (historically Carolina Street) on the east (Figure 1).
