Miss Minnie Brand spoke of greatest tragedies of this section. Nov.
1856, Sheriff W. W. Wright and two
deputies went to Gold Flat jail to
spend the night watching some prisoners. Unbeknown to the officials
several citizens were. watching the
jail. A slight disturbance in the
night and two officers were killed,
one the _ sheriff. Steve Bernard
proved a hero when on May 15th
1856, when three highwaymen held

the fire bell rang for a big fire. Ed
Baker drove a wagon across Pine

One thousand dollars was raised
for fire protection for the city in
early times by the women of the
town. Later in 1860 the firemen
raised $1,000 and formed the Nevada Hose Co. Later another company formed being the Pennsylvania.
Charles Marsh offered his water
system to the city of Nevada on a
20 year contract.. It was accepted
and proved: the’ best system up to
that time.

In 1860 several sidewalks and
city streets were planked. Plans were
to plank a road to Marysville which
fell through.

STATE SCHOOL BUILDING
PROGRAM CURTAILED
SACRAMENTO, Mar” t9==(UP)==
California school districts will build
very few new schools this year, according to a survey of the state department of education.
In view of economic conditions
drastic reductions in budgeted
amounts for capital outlay have been
made by scool districts throughout
the state in an attempt to meet lowered revenues.
It has been estimated by the department that elementary, high
school and junior college districts
have reduced their budgets this year
by approximately $48,767,573. Of
