Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Photograph of a single, rectangular gravestone for John Anderson lying in the ground surrounded by nothing but ground brush. The grave lies at center. It reads, "JOHN ANDERSON 1862 - 1904." Three symbols are engraved on the bottom line of the stone. Ground covered in low brush sprawls into the distance. Text from negative sleeve: 1120. Smith West tour August 1913. Casa Diablo Hot Springs. 1. The old log cabin at the springs. Dave F Smith's EMF with he and his wife at left. H.H.West's Buick at right, with Nella West behind the hood and Mary A West in front. 2. Dave F.Smith and Wife, Mrs Mary A West and Nella A West by side of the wooden shack over the biggest hot spring. Used for a bath house. 3. Off the road just above the old cabin is a grave stone. Sun reflected from it out in the brush caught my eye and I went out and saw what it was, and got my camera and took a picture. Marked: John Anderson, 1882-1904. Has Masonic Square and Compass and I.O.O.F. three links on it. 3 films
