Improving Your Memory
I Wonder as we wend our way
305 Broad Street, Nevada City—Telephone
And mark a shrine now here now there
In memory of our pioneers,
If we in fancy sometimes see
Their campfires gleaming as of old,
And hear through murmurous sonds of night,
The echoing cry of “gold, gold, gold!”’
