Man who found California gold died broke

So Sutter gave up the mining idea and tried to start a town, called "Sutterville," nearby. He’d thought he’d make money selling supplies and plots of land. But his agents cheated him, and he went broke.

Within a year John Sutter had given up his California dreams entirely and slunk off to Washington, D.C., where he would later die, alone and penniless, in a hotel room.

Sutter’s Mill is now a ghost town. The settlement around Sutter’s Fort grew into what became Sacramento, California’s capital city.

But Sutter’s name can still be found there. The fort has been restored as a California state historic park and tourist attraction.

strike it rich：发现丰富的矿藏，走运

pan: 淘金

ghost town: 废弃的城镇
