Proposition to City,
The municipal committee met yesterday
morning and discussed the proposition OF
securing new quarters for city offices. Tha
committee visited two buildings that ara
50 far under consideration, the Lorraine
Building, corner of Washington and Cal,-
itol avenue, and the Majestic. corner OF

both buildings will be submitted to the
committee to-day or tomorrow. To-moi.-
row afternoon another meeting VIII he

LOST TREASURE.
Strange Recovery of Money Buried During

Strange Recovery of Money Buried During
the War.
At the close of the war, when Gen.
sherman's army was marching about
Ohio, people who had money in the local
bank of High Point withdrew it and
endeavored to conceal it. An old man
of the name of Peter Pool had $4,000
in gold in the bank vault as n special
deposit, which he carried away and
buried in the ground near Sunbury
post office, few miles from High
Point
After the scare was over Mr.. Pool
went out in the woods to get his money
and was unable to find it. He kept his
failure to himself, fearing some one
else would find his treasure and steal
it. But, strange as it may seem, he had
lost the location, and never did find the
gold, and finally the old man lost his
mind and died an inmate of the asylum
at Sunbury. Since that time the Cape
Fear & Yadkin railroad has been built
by Sunbury.
man by the name of ]. H. Parker
bought land at Sunbury and has been
cultivating tobacco and selling tim
Der. He had heard of the hiding of the
money by Pool and how the whole face
of the earth had been dug over after the
secret got out, but he did not make any
search for the buried treasure.
The other day as Parker was walk
ing over his land he observed that &
very large oak tree had been blown uE
by the roots. AS he passed by the tree
he saw what appeared to be an iron box
among the roots. he pulled it out ant
found 1t very heavy and fastened by
two old fashioned padlocks. He man
aged to lug the box to his dwelling ant
broke it open. In it he found $4,000
in gold coin. It appeared that the tire,
was hollow and that the dirt had beer
excavated through the hollow and thu
box then put among the roots. 1t Il
not doubted that this money is that o
the old man Pool. 1t is understood tina
Pool left no heirs. If this is true tn,
