Found the Hidden Treasure.
Two weeks ago,
Jose Analla , reputed to be the richest man in Lincoln
county, died near White Oaks. During his time it was often reported
that he had large sums of money buried, and several unsuccessful attempts
were made to rob him. Even when death cama Analla would not reveal
to his family where his money was hidden. He demanded that his body
be wrapped in a sheet without a coffin, and that he be buried
bare-footed. His wishes were followed. The hiding place of his
money was not discovered until last week, when a grandson of Analla
accidentally dug up a can filled with shining $20 gold pieces. How
much more of the eccentric old man's wealth is buried is not known, but
nearly every one in the vicinity has turned treasure seeker and is looking
for buried wealth in all likely and unlikely places.
