Between moving hot coffee urns and preparing sandwiches, Sherry Bullard cultivated connections that supported the county’s policy makers and its workers for over three decades.

Monday will mark the 125th anniversary of the murder of Nevada County Sheriff David Fulton Douglass, a former Wells Fargo shotgun messenger appointed sheriff following the murder of Sheriff William Pascoe in 1893. And if ever there was a local homicide case without full closure, it is the death of 38-year-old Sheriff Douglass.
In 1896, three years after Douglass took office, there were several roadside holdups locally and the two suspected highwaymen were thought to be camped somewhere on Cement Hill. So on July 26, accompanied only by a tracking dog, Douglass hitched up a buggy and went looking for the men in an area that later became the Nevada City Airport. The next morning, however, noticing that the dog had returned to town alone, the worst was feared and a search party organized.
Each week we’ll run through the sublime, the trivial and profound issues, decisions and goings on that strike us as Hits or Misses. you can join in, too, by emailing your Hits & Misses to editboard@theunion.com.
HIT (from reader Peter Sabey): To having a local paper with local news and robust exchange of opinions. Too many local papers have died. Hope local support (subscriptions!) will keep The Union alive.
MISS (from reader Peter Sabey): To Don Rogers’ column July 9. Striving for balance is one thing, but I feel there is a chronic tilt toward false equivalences. Comparing The New York Times with Fox News is simply wrong. Referring to the Rise Gold survey as, of course, “framing” its questions misses the larger issue: The transparently false “sample” by the five supervisorial districts. Do people in Truckee or South County feel the impacts?
