The Evil Secrets of Third Street in Yreka, California

After years of exhaustive historical research, the true story of a single evil street in a seemingly sleepy northern California town has made publication history. With the publication of The Evil Secrets of Third Street in Yreka, California, Gerald P. Murphy, well-known editor of Western United States Gold Town History Magazine (WUSGTHM), credits Sylvia Milton of Hornbrook, California for being his guiding angel in the difficult research involved in collecting the materials for Murphy's work. Before Sylvia died, she donated a treasure trove of original letters and other materials that made this historical masterpiece possible. Simply stated, almost every word of my research resulted from the three cardboard boxes Sylvia left to my magazine. Several of Sylvia Milton's relatives are suing Mr. Murphy for a share in the proceeds from this publication, claiming Murphy stole the cardboard boxes containing the research materials from Milton's back porch in Hornbrook. Murphy disregards these claims by simply stating, Finders keepers, losers weepers.Whatever the truth behind these allegations, the readers of Murphy's work will be rewarded with a plethora of hitherto unknown revelations concerning the early inhabitants of Yreka, California. If you were unaware of the wildly improbable stories behind almost every house on this fabled street, you are in for a rare treat.
