Excerpt from Joaquin Miller's Poems, Vol. 6 of 6 Years ago when the "Songs of the Sierras" had made some stir in London, an alert actor there, liking the new and musical name "Sierras," helped me put two of my magazine sketches together, "The First Woman in the Forks" and "The Last Man of Mexican Camp," as a play, called the first "Fam'lies of the Sierras." Then I put it into book form and published it in London and Chicago under this name. Soon after a retired actor, Fitzgerald of Philadelphia, put it again into a play for Kittie Blanchard, a deserving actress who produced it in New York. She paid me the better part of ten thousand dollars royalties, and as she was very capable and popular, she was allowed all sorts of liberties in the story. For example, having a child she wished to put on the stage, the little tot is shot to death in the first act by the Danites; thrilling! And then the Chinaman, intended as comedy, is made almost a villain, simply to please the gallery. But all this sort of thing, as in the other plays here published, must be brushed aside, and the better strains must be told on the stage hereafter, if told at all, as here set down. The Chinese are not thieves; nor are the Mormons murderers. True, some of their fanatics led the Mountain Meadow massacre, but they were no worse, and certainly not better, than the Missouri mob that butchered Joseph Smith and his brother, Hiram, founders of the Mormon Church. But it is not likely they will see the footlights soon again. For we are fast forgetting open and honest nature.
