This article is the second in a series to present my research into the Villa Montezuma in the form of primary source materials from various nineteenth-century publications. Focusing on the year 1887 through 1889, the period in which Jesse Shepard lived in the Villa Montezuma, this series will also present pertinent and related materials from later in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
This second issue showcases articles from the San Diego newspapers, The San Diego Sun, The Daily San Diegan, The San Diego Union, and The San Diego Daily Sun, from 1887. Articles both written by and written about Jesse Shepard and the Villa Montezuma are presented for the reader in order to gain a better understanding of the man, the place, and the time.
Enjoy!
