Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of Historical Landmarks Committee of the Native Daughters Golden West
No State has as interesting 8. History as California. I stood within the walls of La Rabida Convent, at the World's Fair - that convent whose original was the one in Spain to which Columbus went for asylum and encouragement. As I stepped within those cloistered walls I felt that I was once more upon the soil of California, for California bears upon her bosom the ornaments of a civilization that connects us with the old world - Spain, the influence of the Moors, and the thought of ages long since past.
