Lafayette Messenger: Ia 1868. after La
Fayette fell into the hands Of the enemy,
confederates visited 1t but seldom. Oc-
oasionally one would come in when they
knew the coast was clear. One night, when
everything was favorable, two troopers
who wore the gray rode in. They had the
dignity that fixed purpose gives a man.
Hitching their horses, they made their way
cautiously to the shed room of the drug
store, and raising up some of the loose
flooring they made vain search for some
An1 Ianw - l. l..
remains CT hollow stump. Not finding 1t,
they concluded some enterprlsing yankee
had gotten it. Retracing their steps, they
rode off TO rejoin their command. The
sequel came last Friday. Abe Coulter,
while excav ating some of the surface dirt
within the walls of the new building,
came across the buried treasure, an old
black bottle still tightly corked. When
turned over to DR.. Fariss an investigating
committee was called In. Some of the most
solid men OF the place WIRE sent for, and
after they had sampled il they said it was
brandy OF good quality and mellow with
age.
