18 JANUARY 27 & 29, 1866 NEVADA GAZETTE
crossing of the Yuba, which are being repaired as rapidly as possible. As soon as they are completed, the
trips of the six-horse stage will be resumed.
DANCING SCHOOL.—Messrs. Sullivan and Becket purpose organizing a dancing school in
Nevada, and a meeting for that purpose will be held at Temperance Hall next Tuesday evening, when a
class will be formed. Parties desirous of attending are invited to be present.
STAGING RESUMED.—Messrs. Philip & Gregory are now making their regular daily trip by
stage, between this place and Moore’s Flat, which was hauled off for a short time in consequence of the
slide which occurred on the Yuba grade during the late storm. They find it rather heavy staging, but the
travel between the Flats and Nevada is too great to be accommodated by a saddle train, and therefore the
stage must go through.
MONDAY, JANUARY 29, 1866
[List of unclaimed letters in Nevada City Post Office as of January 29, 1866.]
MARRIED. At Grass Valley, January 28th, by Rev. Father Griffin, ARTHUR BARTON and Miss
JANE JOSEPHINE SULLIVAN—both of Nevada.
At Grace Church, Sacramento, January 22d. by Rev. Wm H. Hill, G. L. PRENTICE and EMMA M.
RICHARDSON.
BORN. In this city, on the 27th instant, to the wife of A. H. Hanson—a daughter.
MEETING OF MERCHANTS.—The Grass Valley Union understands that a meeting of the
merchants of that place will shortly be held, for the purpose of devising means for bringing their freight
over more expeditiously and at less cost than at present. A gentleman who pays annual taxes on one
hundred thousand dollars worth of teams has made the following very advantageous propositions: He
says that if he is guaranteed two hundred tons of freight per month, he will haul from Marysville to Grass
Valley during Winter at seventy cents per hundred, and during Summer at fifty cents; or sixty-two and a
half cents all the year round. He further agrees to haul at the same rates from Nicolaus to that place, when
the water is too low to admit of the boats taking freight to Marysville.
TURKEY SHOOTING.—A party of sharpshooters, from Nevada, attended the shooting match at
the Anthony House on Saturday last, and succeeded in bringing away over thirty turkeys. We heard a
gentleman—who is sometimes disposed to be a little sarcastic in his remarks—suggest that probably the
Nevada boys had bought all the turkeys that were killed.
WOUNDED.—We are informed that an Indian was accidentally wounded at a shooting match, near
the Anthony House, on Saturday. He was standing not far from the target, and a bullet having struck
a rock, glanced and took effect in the muscles of his arm, tearing the flesh severely. The bullet was
extracted.
REMOVED.—Charles Groves has removed his meat market to the place on Broad street recently
occupied by Jackson, as a fruit stand. He was induced to remove by a desire to get into a more populous
part of the town.
