NotesDescribes the wreck of the schooner Juliet on January 28, 1852, iwhen it was driven onshore near Yaquina Bay. While passengers and crew waited for horses to arrive that would allow them to travel to the Willamette Valley, they explored the area, discovering the attractive farmland, native oysters and clams, and noted that the bay was navigable for shallow-draft vessels, "but the entrance was a bad one," (p.203).
