George P. Becker letter to William S. Becker
Manuscripts
In this letter to his brother William, George Becker gives a description of San Francisco and of his experiences since arriving. Of the city, he writes, "I do not like the place; never did, in preference to any other, and hope one of these days to be able to leave it." He calls California a place of "madness", saying that "it seems there are more cases of lunacy in this state than any two large states of the atlantic seaboard."
