Excerpt from The Discovery of San Francisco Bay: The Rediscovery of the Port of Monterey; The Establishment of the Presidio, and the Founding of the Mission of San Francisco

When we began to put on record our investigations of the Discovery of San Francisco Bay, we proposed to confine our paper to the solution of that question alone. We had published some of the facts of the discovery in two separate papers relating to the early voyages of discovery and exploration on this coast, and in the four editions of the Coast Pilot of California, Oregon and Washington.

In the year 1895 Mr. Andrew J. Moulder, Superintendent of the Public Schools of San Francisco, a long time friend, prevailed upon us to read a paper upon the subject before the teachers of the San Francisco School Department, as part of the required Institute work.

That has appeared to us too brief for preservation, and therefore we have undertaken to recast it, and add new material with more detail.
