Excerpt from California and Alaska, and Over the Canadian Pacific Railway The unavoidable delay caused by the illness of my daughter, already referred to, found the season so far advanced when the time came to start that we were obliged to omit our visit to the city of Mexico. We decided, however, that immediately after leaving Omaha we would travel to the southward and eventually reach the warm climate of Southern California. A journey like this, interesting under ordi nary conditions, would seem to be especially noteworthy for the manner in which it was performed, and, on that account, worthy of being chronicled. Hence it is that I have seen fit to give an unpretentious and, I trust, not entirely uninteresting story of our travels, supplemented by illustrations which will be found helpful as interpreters of the text.
