75 Years Ago ...
May 1880
The newly elected Board of Town Trustees met on Monday as required by the charter and organized by electing Mr. B. F. Selbert as president. The regular monthly meeting was held on Wednesday at which time the following ordinances were adopted:
An ordinance levying a dog tax of $2 for the year 1880-1881; an ordinance fixing the bonds of certain officers. Bridges were ordered built at certain places on Palm street. The matter of sprinkling the streets was referred to the committee on public improvements. The marshal was instructed to notify property owners to keep the street in front of their respective places free from rubbish. A warrant for $25 was ordered drawn in favor of the Fire Company to assist in paying for the hose. The bonds of Marshal Barham, Assessor Zeyn and Justice Gaunow were approved.
D. J. Sorensen will leave for San Francisco this morning to attend the session of the Grand Lodge I.O.O.F. He will return in about ten days.
Mr. F. J. J. Schmidt was witness to a very singular combat the other day while out hunting. His attention was attracted to the curious actions of three buzzards and on proceeding to investigate, he found they were fighting with a large rattlesnake. The result of the fight was that the snake was killed. Mr. Schmidt drove the buzzards away, secured the ratles from the snake and left the body lying in the road. Returning after a few minutes, he found that the buzzards had eaten the choice portions of their victim, the skeleton only remaining. The snake was a very long one, with a body as thick as a man's wrist.
The Board of Directors, accompanied by the Commissioner and the Zanjero of the Anaheim Water Company went up to the head of the ditch on Sunday, on a tour of inspection.
