The sudden death of Philip Moynier, pioneer of French Corral,
came as a shock to area residents, He was a native of France, born
there in 1840; and came to the Eastern United States as a young lad.
He crossed the plains later with a group of California-bound land
seekers and went to Forest in Sierra County first. After a few years
there, he settled in French Corral and peddled farm produce over a
wide area. His wife, the former Miss Victoria Fournier of Forest,

was taken into custody after it was demonstrated that the spectacles found near the body of young Bobby Franks had been sold to

horrible crime and implicated his ‘‘best friend” Richard Leob. The

He was worth his wight in gold to we poor confused tourists. When my aunt and I went any
place alone we always got fouled up. I don’t
know how he managed to programme 39 of us as
he did. He wore a huge hat with bright blue
feathers around it so we could always find him
when we needed him. When it came time to get
~ home he took care of the pineapples and anthirums ete. that everyone wanted to bring
home. He just gave us our baggage checks for
them and we picked them up in L.A, He went
with us on most of our tours and if our drivers
missed a story he filled it in for them, Hawaiian
tour drivers are fun. They tell stories (legends)
and history or sing or just talk about what you
came to see throughout your trip. They are so
courteous and happy. I never saw such happy
people. They seem to want you to enjoy their
beautiful islands.

Hawaiian you always (yes ALWAYS)
pronounce @as ah, e as a, 1 as e, 0 as 0, and u as
ooo. There is a more graphic way to put it but
you will get the meaning. Accents threw me.
Every syllable must have a vowel. It usually has
~ ‘one consonant. In a four letter word the accent is
usually on the first syllable. If there are
numerous syllables it is usually on the next to
the last one. That covers it but just when you
think you have it licked you find a word like
Haleakala which 18 pronounced with the accent
