were situated mostly in Fsnnin county
and the adjoining counties Of Grayson,

were full of reports far moro mysterious

Of the earth, compared to which those oi
Cresus and Solomon were insignificant
Il was variously estimated from $3.50 00C
to $25, 600, COO Bean was undoubtedly
several times a millionaire, but no proper
