David Shaw Shrode letters to William L. Shrode
Manuscripts
Two letters sent by David Shaw Shrode to his brother William, written shortly after David's arrival in California. The first letter was sent from Milquatay, California, and is dated December 27, 1870. David writes of the "long and tiresome and dangerous" trip to California, of leaving his cattle and various supplies in Arizona, describes the land in the area ("a very good Stock country but no farming Country"), writes of the "wickedness and ignorance" of Arizona and New Mexico, writes disparagingly of the Pima and Maricopa Indians, and notes the state of the cattle business. The second letter was sent from El Monte, California, and is dated April 23-24, 1871. David and his wife Mariah write of their general happiness in California despite drought conditions, describe the climate and agricultural prospects, and note the prices of land. In a postscript David writes of the lack of timber and of his plans to move "to a new colony 25 or 30 miles from here, [where I] can get land...for 13 dollars per acre."
