January 24th, 1848 would prove to be a great dayfor James Wilson Marshall. To him, that morningwas just the start to a workday like any other. The New Jersey born carpenter set outto inspect work being done in the construction of General John Sutter’s sawmill inColoma, California. In a nearby pool of water, a fewparticles “reflecting a brilliantly yellow light” (Hittell) caught his eye. Atfirst, he was not entirely sure that this gleaming metal was truly authenticgold. Once he had tested several of the specimens,he remarked to a coworker, “Gold! I know it to be nothing else.” (Hittell) As ofthat moment, the gold that would ignite the fever of the California Gold Rushhad been unearthed. This discovery, which had not taken more than a fewminutes, would bring about great change for California, and fast.

JohnSutter, unlike just about everybody else, wanted no part in the gold mania. He was setupon creating a “substantial empire” (Brinkley 359) for himself in theSacramento Valley. But the “enterprising Swiss” (Hittell) would not have hisway. Despite his efforts to suppress the news, word of Northern California’smost valuable natural resource would spread. Initially, most thought the newswas too good to be true. In fact, it went ignored for nearly a year. President James K. Polk assured the nation of its existence with his statementto Congress on December 5th, 1848, “The accounts of the abundance of gold in that territory are of suchextraordinary character as would scarcely command belief were they notcorroborated by authentic reports of officers in the public service.'(Herbert 339) Almost immediately, young men from all over the nation made plans to head toCalifornia. Unfortunately, neither Sutter nor Marshall profited greatly from their gold discovery, nor the proceeding rush. Sutter’s fort and adjacent properties were all butstamped into the dust; his crops trampled and animals stolen by the frenzied miners. Marshall lost most of the land he owned in California and died a penniless man. His 'oft-repeated prophecy' (Beilharz) was 'Some day they'll make a fuss over me,' and he was right. His fame would come posthumously. Despite their bad luck, what these two men started 'was something far greater than either of them ever envisioned.'
