Answer:
In 1869, John Barkley Dawson came to the Vermejo Valley looking for a place to homestead. He found it 5 1/2 miles upstream from the settlement of Colfax and paid $3,700 to Lucien B. Maxwell for the deed, finalizing the verbal deal with a handshake.
After settling on his land, Dawson found coal on his property. Scraping chunks of coal from the surface of his farmland, he burned it in his stove rather than using wood. At first, his neighbors thought he was a little crazy, but out of curiosity, several asked for samples and were pleased with the results, so much so that Dawson began to sell the coal to his neighbors.
Lucien B. Maxwell
In 1870 Lucien B. Maxwell sold his interest in the Maxwell Land Grant. The property was quickly sold two more times over the next two years and in 1872 it was in the hands of a Dutch Firm who was aggressively looking for ways to exploit the resources of the grant. The grant owners immediately attempted to extract rents from many of the squatters living on the grant; however, they often had no way of knowing who was a legal owner and who was not. When they found out that the Dawson land was heavily laced with coal, they wanted to develop the vein and attempted to evict Dawson. Dawson was ready to fight ready to settle the matter with six-guns, but later he consented to settle the matter in the courts. Dawson admitted that his transaction with Maxwell in 1869 was purely verbal; stating that a promise and a handshake was the way Maxwell had always done business. The life and death of Dawson as a coal town could be described as an inevitable spiral. Explain each of the following circumstances that existed in Dawson and how they contributed to its extinction as a town: the process of coal mining, a decrease in the demand for coal, new technology, labor strikes, and the Southern Pacific Railroad.
