Summary

Forty-niners arrive and depart from Sacramento, California, a small frontier town with a dance hall, poker parlor, saloon and barter center. Some pan for gold in the nearby river, while others stake their claim in the surrounding hills. Many camp in tents, while others walk alongside mules and wagons.
