4. The log was later destroyed, but a copy is in the possession of a member of the family.
5. Charles P. Kimball, comp.. The San Francisco Directory, September i, 18^0, on p. 37 places Dougal & Graves at the corner of Kearny and Bush Streets, and on p. 53 (after Graves' name) at Kearny and Pine.
6. Charles Hotchkiss is mentioned in "The California Letters of Edward Hotchkiss" in this Quarterly, XII (June 1933), p. 94. A George Hotchkiss was a clerk for Scranton & Smith (op. cit., p. 92), and a Leonard Hotchkiss is mentioned on pp. 93, 94, 100 and 104.
7. Cooke, Baker & Co., commission merchants, on California Street between Mont- gomery and Sansome. Kimball, op. cit., p. 28.
8. See Note 6.
9. "Sanchez Ranch" was the adobe home of the family of Jose Sanchez, grantee under Mexico of Rancho Buri Buri. The building stood near the barns of the present Millbrac Dairy.
10. The "Mission of Saint Mathews" was a large adobe building on San Mateo Creek which would now be at the corner of El Camino Real and Baywood Avenue in San Mateo. It was built by the fathers of Mission Dolores as a mission outpost for the large number of Indians who lived in that vicinity, as a storage place for grain, and as a stop- ping place on the road to Santa Clara. The latter use has caused it to be known locally as "The Hospice." It stood until the earthquake of 1868 and is vaguely remembered by some people still living. Dougal's drawing is the only authentic picture of the building known to exist.
11. At the time of Dougal's visit, a New Yorker by the name of Nicholas de Peyster was operating a "store and public house" in the old adobe "Mission" by San Mateo Creek— hence the milk punch.
12. "Angelo's Ranch," judging by the distances given in the letter, would now be in the vicinity of Menlo Park. Dougal's drawing of it shows only a tent house set up under the oak trees as a stopping place for stagecoaches. There was at this time or later a hotel in Belmont known as Angelo's.
13. "Wistman's Ranch" was probably the J. W. Whisman place, in what would now be the northeastern outskirts of the city of Mountain View.
14. The Sierra Nevada are not visible from this point. Dougal probably applied the name to the Coast Range which borders the Santa Clara Valley and is here dominated by Mount Diablo and Mount Hamilton.
15. This would be the fire of June 14, 1850, which devastated the area between Clay and California Streets from Kearny Street to the waterfront. The two previous fires witnessed by Dougal were on December 24, 1849, and May 4, 1850. A fourth great fire (September 17, 1850) occurred before he left San Francisco.
