When the rumored discovery in the year 1861 of extensive gold placers on Salmon river was confirmed the intelligence spread through the states like wild fire. Hundreds of men with dependent families who had been thrown out of employment by the depressed industrial condition of the country and by the Civil War and still others actuated by a thirst for gain utilized their available resources in providing means for an immediate migration to the land of promise.
