A flour-mill was needed on his great ranch to grind up the wheat harvested yearly but there was no lumber at hand with which to build it. In the latter part of August, 1847, Captain Sutter and Mr. James Marshall of New Jersey signed an agreement by which a sawmill was to be set to work at Coloma, in a small valley forty-five miles from Sutters fort, up the Sierra Nevada mountains fifteen hundred feet above the sea.
