| By 1879 Bodie boasted a population of about 10,000 and was second to none for wickedness, badmen, and the "worst climate out of doors". One little girl, whose family was taking her to the remote and infamous town, wrote in her diary: "Goodbye God., I'm going to Bodie." The phrase came to be known throughout the west. |
