Title: George Kenyon Fitch letter : Auburn Dry Diggins, Calif., to his brother J.W. Fitch : ALS, 1849 Nov. 19.

Letter of eight pages to J.W. Fitch in Olmstead, Cuyahoga County, Ohio describes improvements made by George K. Fitch and his partners to a small mining cabin, the nearby town of Auburn City, and the accommodations and stores therein, including prices for staple goods. Fitch details the quantity and value of gold found by himself and his partners, Rev. Gilbert C. Weld and Mr. John Berg, in the past seven weeks. Fitch copies an excerpt from his diary dating Nov. 3rd to Nov. 19th which focuses on the day to day weather and gold digging, but also mention political activities such as the California general election on Nov. 13th. Fitch goes on to describe his anticipation of the arrival of a printing press and paper, and his plans for starting a newspaper. He addresses the expectations of those miners who had come to California seeking quick wealth, and his resolve to be content with gradual earnings. He advises his family at home to not follow him to California at the present time. Typed transcription also included.
