A little more fall to distribute between the two points than was needful, and yet it was. well enough, as it permitted the water to be hurried outof the cold canon and into the warm valley as though fired out of a gun. The two sides of the almost perpendicular granite walls throw out projections, ° or a spur frem each side at that point, that narrow the channel to a few feet. Some Titan of old hurled down a chunk of granite as big as a house from the cliff above on the south side and closed up the defile, creating a stretch ef quiet water below. In other werds the dam was ready built. All that was needed to complete it was a little planking, and calking of the chinks to stop the leaks, This very work I helped do, and so speak from personal knowledge of the completeness of this natural dam. . A -tunnel cut through the projecting ledge from the south side would tap the quiet pool— just what was done; and all the flumes being below the fall and tunneled ledge it would be above the reach of floods. I have heard of its being damaged only once in all the years since it was built, and it must have been a tremendous rush of water through the gorge. This superb site, in truth the only feasible one for taking out the water through the gap, had been found and claim made to it by D. A. Rich. The rival company, known to us as the “English Company’ —but—why. the name Ido not know unless for the reason that they expected to sel] out to some English company—made a location for their canal in the gap, and built a fine log house there, and made a few rods—perhaps a dozen—ofcanal-inthe only. soft spot~of ground there was, and puta man there to see that nobody stole it. They -seem-not-to-have lit upon this -natural dam until too late to do much but d—m those who got ahead of them. But their bit of canal in the gap compelled the South Yuba Company folks to “‘shove over” a little to the north, and so close to the bare granite ledge that the solitary sentinel had the satisfaction of seeing them pounding] rock to get throvigh at the grade they wished, where otherwise they would have had soft digging, and avoided quite a bend in the flume, At a guess as td the most convenient lo cation for the work in hand above the gap, about as far up the Yuba as we could get ‘any way, we built a snug one-room cabin of cedar logs—as good so far as the wood material was concerned as King David’s royal house of ‘‘cedar trees” on Mille. The site is through the thick forest beyond. the gap, on the south bank of the Yuba, between a censiderable rapids and the foot of a granite ‘cliff 300 feet high, the upper half of nearly perpendicular bare rock; just above where _ @ bridge now crosses the river, the road leading up Jordan canon toward Bewman’s .Ranch, and ‘‘Grouse Heaven.” One day shortly_after we moved in-I-eut with my pocket-knife a green stick an inch and a half in diameter and five or six feet long;,planted it on the bare rock tep of that cliff by piling recks about the base of it; fastened my handkerchief to it along one edge and then yelled dowam to those in the cabin to come out and salute my improvised flag; which they did and heartily with cheers and clapping of hands. It flopped in the wind till the last thread was gone, and that was not till after the canal was completed. As much as ten years after my father wrote me that my flagstaff: was “still there.” On November 7, 1887, more than thirty-two years thereafter, I climbed Again to the top of that cliff, and the man with whiskers streaked with gray found the weather-beaten base of that flagstaff planted by the beardiess boy, and which I new have in a locked drawer as a cherished keepsake . Into this cabin we moved, and with the roar of the Yuba continually in our ears, “abeve which Reasoner had great difficulty in making his violin heard, we awaited the opening of spring and the coming of the surveyors. With the coming of spring and the birds and the surveyors, came also something else we were not looking for, at least in the way it came, Charles Marsh, Daniel A. Rich and Dr. W. J. Knox were also in the valley, and because of the extra’ company to provide for I was at the cabin by the Yuba getting a supply of ‘‘grub” cooked in readiness for their return at night, and for the breakfast and lunch for next day.The appetites .developed by out-door life.in that mountain atmespbere were something marvelous. The difference between Bear Valley and Nevada City in that respect is even noticeable, although only about twice the elevation above the sea. I have heard Charlie Marsh say, after riding on horseback the twenty-six miles from Nevada City to the valley, as he eat with evident rélish a good slice of fried bacon, that he could not “think of eating” it at bome. Perhaps the ride through the pure mountain air with franents with overpowering force they could ima Rasa Powder to warraut tte superior ® Is Sutihihens fur the office of C ity Marshal at dispossess them of this point of vantage. At any rate this was just what was at— tempted. The gap was not the key to the situation, fer another canal could get through it, or several for that matter.
