Wrecks and Fires Stir Oregon Mining District Notes
From the diary of a February 1845 journey the report covers lumberyard loss totaling about 20,000 feet and railroad trestle damage, a great festival opening, weather impacts on crops, and a long mining district survey near Granite Creek with details on the Buffalo quartz mine, Monumental native site, and several veins like Kingeton, Silver King, and Pride of Pendleton. It mentions forest fires in Michigan, a jewelry heist in New York, and troop disturbances at Cour d Alene.
