Mr. Hasbrouck proceeded at once to Placer county, where he prosecuted mining for two years. In 1857 he came to this county and settled on the farm which he now lives on, located in Two Rock valley, about eight miles from Petaluma. In July, 1857, Mr. Hasbrouck went to Fraser river, returning the following November.
