Volume II focuses on Lincoln City, originally named Paige City, where gold had been discovered as early as the spring of 1859, several months earlier than the recorded discovery of gold in the Blue River. Merchants arrived quickly to supply the miners who worked the placer claims that lined the creek in French Gulch and the hard rock mines such as the Sallie Barber that produced valuable ore in later decades. Readers can read some of the claims recorded in the Spaulding and McKay mining district logbooks, such as those filed by John and Catherine Sisler and John Nolan, which grew into one of the largest placer mining operations in the gulch. The story includes Father John Lewis Dyer's description of his bachelor cabin in French Gulch.
The photographs in Volume II follow the growth and decline of Lincoln City well into the 21% century. Fountain's exploration of the "cat house" documents a unique Lincoln City story. In this as in his other manuscripts, Fountain imagined what life would have been like in the late 1800s and early 1900s. He hopes you, the reader, with the help of text and photographs, will do the same.
