died in the hospital at Montgomery,
Ala, the other day. and on his death
bed told an interesting story.
He came from Wollenstein, Germany, several
years ago and settled ut Hot Springs, Ark
Shortly afterward there moved to Hot Springs
from West Point, Ga, physician whose
name Is not stated, and he and Wine
man became great friends. last winter
the doctor became Ill OF lingering fever
Wineman nursed him most tendery through
out, until his death. An hour or two before he
died, he called his Hebrew friend to him and
told him that in consideration OF his love for
him and his kindly attention he desired to
make him present. The dying man said that
under certain rock, near the root OF a certain
ree, about miles from West Point Ga, he
had buried ali0O0 in gold. He made will CIV
ing Wineman a title TO the money and append
ed to 1t diagram, or map, intended to show
the location OF the treasure.
Wineman had his friend properly buried and
went at once to West Point to find the money.
Fearing lest he should let his secret out he
searched unaided, principally by night, The
citizens thought his movements suspicious.
Seeing him go out after dark with a
pick and an Ak they spotted him for
grave robber and warned him to leave
the neighborhood. This and lack ef ready
funds caused him to leave and to go to Mont
gomery, where he secured employment. He
was just preparing to resume the search for
the hidden treasure when sickness overlook
him, which ended in his death. His ante-mor-
TEN statement Is as above detailed. He has
