FRENCH CORRAL,
Camptonviile Mining .
gravel, Harrison came here about a
June 21, year ago from Gold Run and is well
(Special to The Nugget) The long. pleased with the mining possibilities
year, but we sincerely hope, it may not be the !
hottest, for after. two days of ex.
cessive heat we feel rather unabie
to cope with the third and longest
day. Well, as in this none can be
choosers we must take what is sent .
and make the best of it. After the
plenteous rain of a week ago, we
are still exclaiming, “Strange weather for June’. No particular damage
was done in this, section, however.
We begin this week’s items with
feelings of both joy and sorrow. AS
est day of the:
we are wont to put sorrow away,
we will write of the joyous’ past
first. It gave us, great pleasure to
read in Tuesday’s Union = that the
spirt of patriotic enthusiasm had
been thoroughly aroused, and Grass
Valley would give their almost
traditional . observance of 4th of
July, and have a celebration.
The San Juan Ridg: is always
proud of our “Twin (ilies’’, and it.
would) seem almost a calamity if
that beautiful custom of much over
half a century .met with _ failure.
Would that we of this section could
take an active part in it. Why could
“we not put ona float? Our Hi
School Bus might play its part in
this, was suggested by_one of our
young ladies. After five years of
steady association the ‘‘Old Bus’’ has
become endeared almost as the
school room, Get busy girls and boys,
and the the Ridge be represented!
Boost the Ridge, be represented!
Boost our own Nevada county!
Friday evening brought friends
from Sacramento. Mr. Clarence Hoffman and son, Milton, to whom
French Corral is always ‘‘Home’”.
They pitched their tent beneath the
pines, and it was lucky they had a
tent for use the morning the rainstorm was on. They returned to
Sacramento Sunday afternoon, but
Say, they can even enjoy a rainstorm in Freneh Corral.
, Bill Walsh of Smartville passed
through Friday morning with a
drove of cattle.
The S. J. R. W. A. dance that
was to be given at San Juan the
night of the 15th had to te post_ poned on account of the storm. It
seems the weather plays a hoodoo
on the Association dances with
snows and rain.
