Battle of La Mesa
The Battle of La Mesa occurred on January 9, 1847 in present-day Vernon, in which the Mexican Army almost gained the advantage, but they fell back into a full retreat and camped at present-day Pasadena, giving up Los Angeles. General Flores fled back to Mexico. The campaign for California ended with the signing of the Treaty of Cahuenga by General John C. Frémont and General Andres Pico on January 13, 1847.
