Alvarado from whom Sutter obtained his grant wa an enemy of his successor and hence Rutter had to make peace with the new governor No sooner wa this accomplished than the policy of the United States In California began to create problems Gold Doomed Rutter In a remarkably understanding manner Dana sets forth the step In the making of California history: The coming of the map maker Fremont the declaration of war with Mexico tha war over and California in the hands of the United State Even with all this Rutter might have survived had it rot been for the gold-seekers of 49 Ironically enough Sutter was responsible for the event which was to do him untold harm On August 27 1847 the journal of Rutter's Fort records that ha made a contract with James Wilson Marshal for a sawmill to be erected on the American Fork The site was not on Rutter's land On January 24 1948 Marshall made his famous discovery of shining specks in the new mill race The news was slow In finding credence but when It did the deluge began coming first from drifters then from the outside world Sutter's empire was doomed Rutter was robbed by the rugged Individualists of the '49 migration cheated by his agents and finally throwing much of what was left of his fortune Into litigation was crowded out Ha spent his last Stand and parchment a a cs Complete In this sale at thla special low price: Covered In rust or green tap entry Keally marvelous values at our Anniversary Sale price!
