They described the Place inhabited by Native Americans as having “spreading meadows, where there is sufficient irrigable house for two good settlements. […] Over and above these finest of advantages, it has profusion of firewood and timber in the next sierra which surrounds it—many sheltered spots, waters, and pasturages, for raising cattle and sheep and horses.”
