State of Oregon - Canon City, Grant County

Canon City, Grant County, PO and County seat, is a town of considerable importance, on John Day's River, in the midst of a rich mining section, and good agricultural lands in the vicinity. The town lies at the western base of the Blue Mountains, and is connected by a fine stage road with the Columbia, at the Dalles, 180 miles northwest. The surrounding country is rich in placer and gold-bearing quartz veins, which have already yielded some $10,000,000 of the precious metals since the discovery in 1861, and promise, upon proper development, a large supply for an indefinite period. Schools and churches are established and well-maintained, Indicating a good state of society.
