I suspect this is a hoax, the article was create by a new account who created three other hoaxy articles (see other afds above). One has been prodded and de-prodded already - so I brought them all here. Megapixie 04:13, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, without any references, none of this can be verified independent of the internet. And since Google only returns this page for either of the subject's names, when combined with the word "gold," I'm inclined to agree it's a hoax. -- H·G (words/works) 04:30, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete as hoax. Facts are incorrect (telegraph lines didn't cross the United States until the 1860s, and didn't even cover the cities in California until 1853); hyaline membrane disease is a newborn disease (I don't know when it was named, but would be suprised if it was by 1863); etc. TedTalk/Contributions 05:55, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Providing incite and details for those seeking gold within the hills, citing the most prosperous hill for travelers searching for gold. Considering what was happening during the gold rush, I doubt there was anyone this altruistic as to simply point out the best places to prospect. Where are the sources for this information?  Sounds like the source is the author's rectum. —  NM  Chico  24  [[Image:Flag of New Mexico.svg|25px]] 09:10, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
