There Is quite 4 difference between
staging IN the early days Of the state and
now, said William Miller, the owner Of
the stage line running from Cazadero to
Ukiah.
when I came here from Boston in
1854, I drifted about a bit and finally
went into the service Of Charles McLaugh-
In, the man who was afterward killed by
Jerome Cox. He was the owner Of the
hngesr stage line IN California at that
time. Ir ran with relays from san Jose
TO Los Angeles.

standing by the side Of the road. He
