SS Sierra Nevada
Captain James H. Blethen, Sr.
From San Francisco to San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua

Passage

No details given. This sailing, from C.K. Garrison, took people out of San Francisco to San Juan del Sur, presumably for transfer across Nicaragua to meet with Eastern seaboard ships.

Some of these passengers would have been returning permanently to the East Coast, having given up on California's dreams; others to visit relatives not seen in years, and others travelled for business reasons.

Cargo

Not listed.
