Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cressy; A Treasure of the Redwoods: And Other Tales As the master of the Indian Spring school emerged from the pine woods into the little clearing before the school house, he stopped whistling, put his hat less jauntily on his head, threw away some wild owers he had gathered on his way, and otherwise assumed the severe demeanor of his profession and his mature age which was at least twenty. Not that he usually felt this an assumption 5 it was a firm conviction of his serious nature that be impressed others, as he did himself, with the blended austerity and ennui of deep and exhausted experience.

BOHEMIAN DAYS IN SAN FRANCISCO It is but just to the respectable memory of San Francisco that in these vagrant recollections I should deprecate at once any suggestion that the levity of my title described its dominant tone at any period of my early experiences. On the contrary, it was a singular fact that while the rest of California was swayed by an easy, careless unconventionalism, or swept over by waves of emotion and sentiment, San Francisco preserved an intensely material and practical attitude, and even a certain austere morality. I do not, of course, allude to the brief days of '49, when it was a straggling beach of huts and stranded hulks, but to the earlier stages of its development into the metropolis of California. Its first tottering steps in that direction were marked by a distinct gravity and decorum. Even during the period when the revolver settled small private difficulties, and Vigilance Committees adjudicated larger public ones, an unmistakable seriousness and respectability was the ruling sign of its governing class.

Even that peculiar quality of Californian humor which was apt to mitigate the extravagances of the revolver and the uncertainties of poker had no place in the decorous and responsible utterance of San Francisco.
