Looking for confirmation that the legendary “Jackson" took a ship to San Francisco? He could easily have taken the train at Hammond and would have arrived earlier in San Francisco than by steamer. Shotwell and his unnamed friend did just that according to Charles Miller. They boarded the train at Ruskin.
Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
In 1891,in New Westminster BC, an elderly Native man was hanged for murder. Today, legends of epic proportions link him with rich gold findings in the mountains around Pitt Lake and multiple killings. What do we really know about this man and where did the legends come from?

Memorable quotations
A gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar on top.
Gold makes a fool of us all the time. Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
Gold is where you find it.
