We have just received intelligence
q the greatest discovery ever made in
WashingtOn Parish.
Hessrs. Billy Duncan, Pink J. Par
ker, Carter Williams and Rev. w. ].
Duncan were the fortunate discoveries.
Abo1t two years ago the premises Of
0f. Pearl Mizell were destroyed by
Ire, with the exception of IN old smoke
house, which still stands, and which
covers tie ground that contained the
great pot Of money. Though the men
dag faithfully for many days, their
laboes were rewarded at last. How
loag lie money has been there, or how
Il came there, will probably never be
known. Great excitement prevails In
he nslghborhood, and doubtless the
search for gold viii continue. 1t Is
cid that more money has since been
located IN the neighborhocd, through
IL ne q . mineral rod, and It is to DO
hoPsd the new party will meet with the
SANE good fortune.
