F. L. b. asks: Why were the people
who crossed the plains in lS49 to seek
gold in California called American
Argonauts,' as well as "Forty-niners"?
Answer-The name was applied to
them by Bret Harte in his ballads of
the "Forty-niners." The similarity of
their conditions suggested the quest of
the Argonauts of Greek antiquity. The
original Argonauts are reputed to have
undertaken a long journey into I'M
known seas. The expedition was I'M
der. the command of Jason and its pur-
ported object was to fetch from Colchis
the golden fleece of a ram which was
suspended on an oak and guarded by
a sleepless dragon. The adventurous
spirit of the "Forty-niners' may be
compared to that of the early Argo-
nauts, hence the application of the
name.-Ed.
