San Mateo County Gazette Redwood City, San Mateo County, California Saturday Morning, August 18, 1860, Vol. 2 No. 20 TWELTH DISTRICT COURT. - The session of this Court for San Mateo county, August term, will commence on Monday next, 20th. The term will probably not exceed three days, as the cases are principally of a class which are speedily disposed of by the Judge. It is not likely there will be more than three trials by jury, and possibly but one. The following calendar for the term: The People vs. David S. Terry C. Lux et al. vs C. Clark et al. C. Lux et al. vs. T. Frawley et al. Wm. Martin vs. D.R. Jones H.F. Teschemacher et al. vs. John Thompson et al Wm. Martin vs. J.V. Diller et al H. Hawes vs. J.W. Brittan et al Richard Collins vs J. Langan et al. H. Hawes vs. S. Hovious et al. H.E. Harrington vs. Dennis Martin et al. B.G. Lathrop vs. W.C. Crook et. Al C.E. Kelly et al vs Guadalupe Miramontez et al Basil Clark vs James Mee W.W. McCoy vs. Alfred Cowles et al S.O. de Arguello et al vs. E. Donnelly David Mahony vs. J. Van Winkel et al. POST OFFICE AT SPANISHTOWN. - We are informed by H.C. Bidwell Esq., who has been exerting himself to that end, that there will shortly be a postoffice established at the above point on the coast. The expense will be met by individuals and the office will be in Mr. Bidwell's store. This will prove of great convenience to the people of Half-moon Bay country, and great credit certainly is due the persons who were instrumental in having the route established. Efforts have been made heretofore to get a post office at that place, but owing to various causes, principally the neglect of public officials, they have not been successful. WOODSIDE. - A rumor was in circulation for some time past that Tripp & Parkhurst had dissolved their copartnership, which had existed for several years. We are assured that such is the fact from one of the late firm. Neither of the parties are to leave, we are glad to learn. The store will be conducted by M.A. Parkhurst, and Dr. Tripp will hereafter superintend the ranch. Mr. Wm. P. Morrison, it is rumored, has purchased the interest of his partner, Mr. Havens, in the Mountain Home ranch. The sawmill lately purchased, is being put up in Bear Gulch, and is expected to be in operation next week. To see other old newspapers, visit http://www.newspaperabstracts.com
