There was no written law and gold was king. Faro. Monte, Poker and games of chance were all played with the ever present sacks of dust as the pay off. Saloons ran wide open 24 hours a day and it was inevitable that trouble was brewing. Jacksonville had Its first murder in 1852. A man min ing in Rich Gulch was shot by a gambler. Immediately every claim was vacated and the people gathered. Mr. W. W. Fowler was appointed Judge and twelve men were chosen by popular vote to act as a Jury. They voted him guilty,. . . took him to an old oak a little north of where the Presbyterian Church Is now . . . and hanged him . . . ... court was then adjourned. In the summer of 1852 the more solid citizens began to lay out the town. But it was to be a rugged winter. By November snow was falling and food was scarce. Flour told at $1 a pound, tobacco was $1 an ounce and there was no salt Several men who felt an obligation to the commu nity crossed the Siskiyous on snowshoes to Yreka and aft er much hardship returned with packs of staples. And still there was no salt Tempers became short for life Itself was uncertain. The titles to land were only miner's rights, and Mr. Cluggage alone had a Donation Land claim. Too, the Indians began to be pesky, shooting at any one who ventured away from the saloon lighted streets. Salt became more Important than gold . . . and those who shared their precious hoard sarned friends for the rest of their lives. It was not un common to hear the expression thirty years later . . .
