How the Bia-Trces Of California
Were Discovered.


One afternoon in the year 1871, Gen
eral John Bidwell. then a Young lad
and member of band of pioneers
who had crossed the Rockies and were
descending the western slope o. the
Sierra Neyadas Of California, in what
is now Calayaras County. left his com
pauious and went on hunting eXpe-
dition.
His success ia securing game is not
recorded, but his hunt will be forever
memorable as probably the first occa-
sion on which the giant sequoia or
"big-tree" was seen by white man.
The dusk of early evening causeG him
to hasten back to camp without paus-
ing to examine these belore-unheard-
OF kings ~ The forest, and the urgency
of u arsing onward to the coast pre-
vented him from returning to them.

to 60 to Calaveras County for the eX-
press purpose Of learning more about
the trees Of which he had seen only
enough to arouse his enthusiasm, but
the war and the conquest of California
and later. the excitement which fol-
lowed the discovery OF gold, caused
him for the time to abandon the
scheme.
Eleven years passed, and the big
tree, although it had been discovered,
was still practically unknown. Then,
in the spring OF 1862, writes Mr.. Shinn,

carriage and the engineer mounted
his engine and on they went for a con-
siderable distance. Indeed, the young
engineer began to suspect that the
