tiste Truvido, the last of the pioneers

mining. When the news arrived at
San Francisco in January, 1S47, that

party organized by Captain Sutter.
Truvido and his companions reached
the Truckee lake February 10 and
found 10 of the Donner party dead at
the nearest camp.
Truvido went to Donner's camp.
They found the last survivor lying on
the floor smoking his pipe. His camp
kettle was over the fire and in it his
meal of human flesh. Truvido was one
of those who threatened to hang the
survivor, believing he had killed Mrs.
Donner. He later aided other rescuers
in carrying on his back children who
had been saved from another camp.
