I went west for gold in California.It took me about five months on a wagon train.When I got there,their was lots of diseases cause it was a boomtown.I was one of the almost fifty thousand forty-niners .It was dangerous cause there were like three hundred thousand indians living there.Many of the people living there were Chinese immagrants.After the Gold Rush I was scared.There were already allot of cowboys with bandanas.Most of the people there were pioneers.
