You undoubtedly have reference to a

of the fourth of July, 1S47, at dinner
given by Major Stephen Cooper and
George Yount in Napa valley at a
point about a mile from the present
site of Yountville. The dinner was
prepared by Mrs. Cooper and Mrs.
Reed, who was one of the Donner
party. The flag was made by the
daughter of Major Cooper who after

with red ribbon. 1t had but one star
in the blue to represent California.
On the face of the flag was written,
