This thesis studies the rise of violence in SLO, its causation, and effects. The vigilance committee of 1858 represents the culmination of the violence that came from sweeping changes in the region, stemming from its earliest conquest by the Spanish. The mounting violence built upon itself as extensive changes took place. These changes include the conquest of California, from the Spanish mission period, Mexican and Alvarado revolutions, Mexican-American War, and the Gold Rush. The history of the county is explored until 1863 to garner an understanding of the borderlands violence therein. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………... 1 PART I - CAUSATION…………………………………………………… 12 HISTORIOGRAPHY……………………………………………........ 12 BEFORE CONQUEST………………………………………..…….. 21 WAR……………………………………………………………..……. 36 GOLD RUSH……………………………………………………..….. 42 LACK OF LAW…………………………………………………….…. 45 RACIAL DISTRUST………………………………………………..... 50 OUTSIDE INFLUENCE………………………………………………58 LOCAL CRIME………………………………………………………..67 CONCLUSION……………………………………………………….

LOS ANGELES: YARNELL, CAYSTILE & MATHES, PRINTERS. 1881. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1881, by HORACE BELL, In the office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington, D.C. TO THE FEW Reminiscences of a ranger; or, Early times in southern California. By Major Horace Bell http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.103 SURVIVING MEMBERS OF THE LOS ANGELES RANGERS, AND TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO HAVE ANSWERED TO THE LAST ROLL-CALL, THIS HUMBLE TRIBUTE IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED BY THE AUTHOR. PREFACE. No country or section during the first decade following the conquest of California, has been more prolific of adventure than our own bright and beautiful land; and to rescue from threatened oblivion the incidents herein related, and either occurring under the personal observation of the author, or related to him on the ground by the actors therein, and to give place on the page of history to the names of brave and worthy men who figured in the stirring events of the times referred to, as well as to portray pioneer life as it then existed, not only among the American pioneers, but also the California Spaniards, the author sends forth his book of Reminiscences, trusting that its many imperfections may be charitably scrutinized by a criticising public, and that the honesty of purpose with which it is written will be duly appreciated.

[1, 2] 1850 [Feb] San Luis Obispo County is formed by legislative act and becomes one of the original 27 California Counties. El Camino Real soon develops the reputation as "The most lawless trail in the West." [1] 1850 [April] Prominent S.L.O. county rancher Henry J. Dalley is elected as San Luis Obispo County’s first Sheriff. He receives $20. a month and establishes offices in Mission San Luis Obispo.

  • Confirmation of Occurrence of the American Redstart in Coastal Santa
    408 THE CONDOR Vol. 62 and titmice and chickadees may alternate in their occupancy of the same breeding territory in succes- sive years (Dixon, lot. cit.). It appears that, as in the early 1950’s, the chickadees avoid areas occu- pied by the titmice, and that space is not shared by the two species to an appreciable degree during the breeding season. I am indebted to Paul D. Hurd, Jr., and Jack Powers for determination of the stomach contents reported here.-KmTH L. DIXON, Hastings Natural History Reservation, University of California, Carmel Valley, California, December 30, 1959. (Present address: Department of Zoology, Utah State University, Logan, Utah.) Notes on Winter and Early Spring Bird Activity on the Farallon Islands, California. -Of the numerous published accounts of the birds of the Farallon Islands, few are based on obser- vations made in the winter. Through the courtesy of the United States Coast Guard I spent several days, January 12 to 16 and March 17 to 23, 1960, on the Southeast Farallon Islands which are situ- ated about 28 miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California. The primary purpose of my visit was to determine the winter activity of Cassin Auklets (Ptychoramphus aleutica). Each evening Cassin Auklets were noted coming in from the sea in large numbers about an hour and a half after sundown. In January no eggs were found, but the birds were active cleaning out old bur- rows. In some instances new burrows were begun in the soft soil, and many birds were engaged in mating activity.
