City of Angels Visit From Lawrence Bankers and Kansas People
An 1885 letter from Los Angeles describes a weeklong journey from Lawrence to California. The writer notes a pleasant trip, a growing city of about 35,000 in a broad valley near the sea, and claims it as a center of commerce for Southern California. He lists several Lawrence natives now in the area, including Daniel Innes, James Crawford, Dr. Lawrence, Rev. J. M. Cockins, and others, visiting San Monico and San Diego while meeting more Kansas and Lawrence figures. The tone is upbeat about climate, health, and prospects, with plans to write back.
