Excerpt from Central Route to the Pacific: From the Valley of the Mississippi to California; Journal of the Expedition Beale, Superintendent of Indian Affairs in California, and Gwinn Harris Heap, Missouri to California, in Missouri, 1854 The President having given his approval to this plan, Mr. Beale was instructed to proceed forthwith, by the shortest route, to his superintendency, and to select lands most suitable for Indian reservations. He was also directed, in connection with this plan, to examine the Territories of New Mexico and Utah, where their frontiers and those Of California lie contiguous, and to ascertain whether lands existed there to which the California Indians might, with advantage, be removed. Mt. Beale having, in a few days, collected a small party, and my duties calling me at this time to California, I gladly availed myself Of his invitation to join the expedition, which promised to be replete with interest, not only because he proposed tra versing a large tract Of unexplored country, but also from its being one of the routes in contemplation for a railway from the Valley Of the Mississippi to our Pacific possessions.
