“In honor of the King's Coronation a number of English residents of
Santa Cruz and their friends enjoyed, Saturday, at the Felton Big Tree Grove, a
basket picnic. The day was a most delightful one, with a tendency to rain at
nine o’clock. The road was sprinkled the whole length, even from the main
Felton road to the Grove. At eleven o’clock teams commenced arriving in fair
numbers, and a little later the grounds were full of guests, their rigs being
tied on the opposite side of the river. The English flag was in evidence, and
some of the ladies wore a beautiful blending of the American and English flags.”
This festive celebration was hosted by Milo Hopkins at Cowell's Big Trees.
