respectively over 10000. 2fO.OG and 100 coo

of the properties for while, and when 1t was

Often, down to l19a, the gold
hunters had noticed Ia the bottoms of
the bowls In which they washed the
river sands little bright crystal, to
which they attached no value. The
brilllancy of these crystals, their
hardness and their regular form, as II
shaped by the hand, had, indeed,
attracted the attention of the miners,
and many had saved them to use as
counters In play but gold alone had
any value Ia the eyes of these adven-
turers At this epoch, according to
the least uncertain tradition, monk
who had taken part in the search for
diamonds In India recognized the
nature Of these counters. He told his
discovery to certain Bernardo da
Fonseca Lobo, who made it known
IN his name to thu Portuguese Govern
ment. The King immedia tely took
possession Of all the lands where the
presence of diamonds had been
recognized and where IL could
be suspected. Bernardo received as
his reward the tito of Royal Notary
and the command of the militia of
the most important city of the region.
Inc name OF the menk was forgot
