PSN also has a little story about a new book about Don Benito Wilson, who once upon a time owned darn near everything in Southern California, including Altadena. He held so many government offices, started so many businesses, and held so much land, we'll not see his like again. He's buried at Church of our Savior in San Gabriel, close to a monument to his grandson, Gen. George Patton.
