Description

"The Weekly Herald" [New York], 31 August 1850. The issue, which contains local and national news of all kinds, is notable for an article, reprinted from the San Francisco "Alta California" of 17 July, about banditry, crime, and vigilantism in the California gold mines near Sonora. There is also a separate article on mining operations in the region. With browning, some foxing, edge tears, creases, pin holes, and folds, the overall condition is fair.
