What I know of California Indians
Manuscripts
Brief memoir by Mrs. F.A. Tracy of her impressions of California Indians (what she calls "Digger" Indians) from the time of her arrival in California in 1852. Includes anecdotes about her interactions with local Indians, her observations of their customs (including an account of funeral customs), and the negative influence of "the renegade white man." Appears to have been delivered as a speech to a women's club.
