Mariposa Gazette Centennial Edition- 1954
TULITOS- Tulitos, one of the earliest gold camps in Mariposa County, was
located between Indian Gulch and Hornitos.  It has long vanished and is
said to have been occupied by "Manila men".  It is surprising that the
Filipinos found their way so early across the sea, and it is though they
possibly had come from chile.  The "Manila men "worked only to exist and
spent most of their time training their game roosters, to carry on
fights with the nearby Mexicans.
