"Up to this time, fear of punishment had exercised
no restraining influence on the conduct of
men who had organized murder and robbery into
a steady pursuit. They hesitated at no atrocity
necessary to accomplish their guilty designs.
Murder with them was resorted to as the most
available means of concealing robbery, and the
two crimes were generally coincident. The country,
filled with canons, gulches, and mountain
passes, was especially adapted to their purposes,
and the unpeopled distances between mining
camps afforded ample opportunity for carrying
them into execution.
"
Pack trains and companies,
stage coaches and express messengers, were as much
exposed as the solitary traveller, and often selected
as objects of attack. Miners, who had spent
months of hard labor in the placers in the accumulation
of a few hundreds of dollars, were never
heard of after they left the mines to return to
their distant homes. Men were daily and nightly
robbed and murdered in the camps. There was
no limit to this system of organized brigandage.
