Ihe San rrrrcIsra Ylriianfs-

Continued lawlessness. unchecked by
the usual processes Of criminal Law, made
llte ana property in San Francisco in
secure. Criminals Of every grade. from
the penal colonies Of New South Wales
and Australia. the Sandwich Islands. and
other Pacific ports. had fiocked to san
Francisco, allured by the prospect Of
plumber and robbery in a community
then living In a state OF almost Arcadian
simplicity and security. In a twelve
month, murder. arson, burglary. and
other crimes against person ard proper
~ were exceedingly common. The police
were inefficient, and, like the courts.
were suspected OF collision with the
law-breakers. The jails were insecure.
juries were bribed. end the whole course
Of justice clogged.
Finally. one Burdue, caught red-handed
In murderOus assault on a Mr. Jansen,
a reputable merchant, was taken to

William T. Coleman, drawn thither
10y mild curiosity, saw that the common
thought and object Of the assembiage
was the speedy punishment of the GRIM

more intense, he broke silence and be-
sought them not TO proceed to violence,
but 10 organize a court and try the man
then and there IL Burdue was innocent,

he should be hanged before the sun went

by a strange miscarriage OF justice, the
woud-be murderer escaped the Nigi-
lance Committee Of 1851 was born. Later
in that summer, May and June, 1S5l, two
great aad destructive fires, undoubtedly
set by pillaeers, swept the city with the
bosom OF ruin. Millions Of dollars worth
Of property and one hundred lives were
lost I'm these fires. The incendiaries were
indicted. Under hair-spItu1g technical
titles -hey evaded punishment.
This was the occasion of the formal
organization OF the San Francisco Vigi-
lance Committee, which had previously
had an inchoate existence, with William
Il. Coleman as one OF its active men,

substantial business men were enrolled
on it's books of membership, and these
citizens pledged themselves Ito watch.

The first offender caught was one Jenk-
ms. taken in the act Of carrying off a
safe from a store. He was tried, con-

Vigilance Committee four men were
