Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of David Belden In the preparation of this work the editor has been confronted from time to time with serious obstacles. The circumstances attending Judge Belden´s early life in California have combined to render the acquirement of facts and details well-nigh impossible. At the same time, the expectation of securing a complete account of his subsequent career remained unrealized, owing to the decease of intimate friends who might have supplied the needed material. The character, attainments, and extended reputation of the man, however, seemed to demand the services of a biographer; consequently, in default of more complete records, it was deemed advisable to present in their present disconnected form the chief incidents of his life, together with some of his contributions to the various departments of learning. In the compilation of this volume, I should acknowledge my indebtedness to many, but more especially to Mr. C. M. Shortridge, of the "San Jose Mercury," and Mr. J. J. Owen, of "The Golden Gate," who have generously supplied valuable and much-needed information; to Judge Niles Searles and Hon. M. J. Farrell for facts not elsewhere obtainable; and to Mr. H. S. Foote for efficient aid in collecting and arranging material derived from various sources. To the San Jose press also, whose columns I have so freely utilized, my obligations are many. The permanent character of the memorial, however, is due to the thoughtfulness of Mrs. Belden, whose untiring efforts in its behalf cannot be too highly appreciated.
