club to be known as the Curiosity
! Seekers" This club had about twelve
members, and they made up their minds
that they were not afraid to visit Cedar
Point at the midnight hour. But before
going, would say that this clubs mem
bers ranged in age from 10 years to IS
years, and that they went around seeing
what they could capture or find in the
woods, swamps or creeks, and that they
intended to have the same on exhibition.
So they came to the conclusion that they
would like to find the 'buried treasure at
Cedar Point, as it would be quite our
iosity as well as very valuable.
The visit was talked about and plans
made and re-made, but it seemed impos-
sible to have them all present at the ap-
pointed time, so it was postponed from
time to time.
Another important factor in the arrange
ments was who was to be the captain or
leader. All hands expressed their desire
to 90, but no one seemed to want to assume
the responsibility as leader. At last
''Swipes" as he was known, was selected
and finally agreed to take command The
time was set and all members were told
where to meet.
This time all the members were present,
| believe, except one or two, and after
long talk about what they would do, and
how each one was expected to act they
started for johnson S wharf" just short
distance above the iron bridge, where they
got in small boats.
Each member was armed with large
club or gun and some carried shovels to dig
with, and the start was made with all
hands full of high spirits.
After about half or three-quarters of an
hour Cedar Point was reached, and the
landing made. All members got out of the
boats boldly. But now the trouble com
menced. "Swipes" who had been chosen
to be leader was trying to "shirk his posi-
| ton" but after considerable deliberation
he agreed to take command. They started
for the Old Stone House, but it wasn't
long before "Swipes' was again trying to
shirk, and positively refused to 20 any
further. So another member declared he
wasn't afraid and took command. The
march was resumed and few yards further
toward the Old Stone House gained. 1t
wasn't long before this leader was Sinking
and dropped back, and another member
was called upon to take command, but not
one seemed willing to resume leadership.
The club was now about fifty yards from
| the shore and about the same distance from
the Old Stone House. where the "buried
treasure" was supposed to have been.
Now it was impossible to get leader,
and this caused confusion in the whole
crowd. Not one would 20 an inch further
toward the house. Just about this time
some one imagined he heard the 'queer
noise, and with guns. clubs and shovels
in hand, each and every member ran for the
boats as fast as they possibly could.
So the Curiosity Seekers Club" never
found the buried treasure" to put it on
exhibition.
Several Of the members told me about
their eXperie ce and said they never in
tended to again try to find the "buried
treasure at Cedar Point at the midnight
hour.N

By this time the smiles which she had
vaguely noticed on the faces OF some Of
her fellow-travelers had become broader.
At her last remark one man laughed aloud
This caused her to cease her incessant flow
of words and turn to look at him, which
gave her companion time to complete the
often begun sentence:
