Note 4 — THE POPULATION OF THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY IN APPROXIMATELY 1850
Reading edition
Merriam's manuscript entitled "Yokuts List" mentions a report from Lt. N. H. McLean, dated July 12, 1853, to H. J. Wessels, on file in "Old Files Division," Adjutant General's Office, Washington, no. H369. As far as I am aware, this letter has never been quoted elsewhere.
