“Los Angeles was a place after my own heart. The people were hospitable. The country had the same attraction for me that it had for the Indians who originally chose this spot as their place to live.

It was so attractive to me that it at once became something about which my whole scheme of life was woven, I loved it so much.” PeopleHeartLittlesCountryWholeBeautifulMy OwnRiversAttractionSpotsAttractiveStreamsLos AngelesSchemesWovenPlaces To Live Author:William Mulholland
