CURIOUS OLD RESIDENTS
Have Had No Use for Banks
$3,4OO Dug Up in One Old
Pioneers Back Yard.

Ihe foll0W1ng is from the DetrOlt
Journal, dated Rockland, Ontonagon
county, April Goth;
Mrs. Jerry O'Neil died in Rocklad
April 18th, at the age of 93. She
was born in Ireland and came 10
this town with her husband some
fifty years ago. For many years he
was miner, working for the old
Minnesota cenpany. Thrifty and
saving, afraid Of banks, with no con
fidence or ability to invest money
to advantage, they boarded it away
in odd hooks and corners. After
attaining the age Of 100 old Jerry
died two years ago, and his wife.
with her aged, blind sister, continu d
to live alone in the old house.
Neighbors knew that she had
money, but no one knew how much,
or where she kept it, until the day
before she died, when she revealed
the hiding place, after making her
will. Witnesses were called and
over 50, 400 was dug up out Of the
garden. 1t was mostly gold, bank
notes Of the old Skinner issue, and
checks on the old Minnesota Mining
Co., which went out of existence
some years ago, the property trans
ferred, reorganized, and now worked
under the name of Michigan. AT
the time issued, these checks were
as good as gold, but are now value
less. The aged blind sister is still
| living at the age Of 95
Old Jerry was noted character
around Rockland for many years,
and many interesting stories are
told regarding him. He was first
class copper miner and an expert
sand blaster, enjoyed perfect health
and was "a strong, active man up to
the day of his death.
Rockland is town Of old people,
or was until the last boom in cop
per caused some of its old mines tC
be reopened. Forty years ago il
was the largest city on Lake Super
! ior, and the Minnesota mine was the
greatest on earth. The town is one
Of the most picturesque in the entire
northern country. When the mines
closed the people who had home
and competence were 10th TO leave
it and so stayed on, while the
younger ones drifted out to other
districts. The town was beautiful
| but isolated, and out OF any direct
| line of communication with the out
side world, and so the people lived
on for many years like one great
overgrown family, with no bank OF
railroad, and many are the quaint
characters that developed.
1t is common thing for many oi
these old people to hide their money
in odd places. At the time Of the
Rockland fire in 1898, one old mar
lost several thousand dollars, besides
stock certificates and other valuable
papers by reason OF having then
hid in an odd corner of an old church
Not long ago one of the busines:
men OF the place called on an ole
settler to close certain transaction
when the old man dug up an ole
stocking and counted out over 81, 600
Since the boom ia copper, new
blood has come into the town and
everything is changed. Mines are
opened up, railroads built, a bank
has been started and many of the
old people are using it, but some
are too old and will never learn, and
still keep thousands of dollars hid
den away in queer out OF the way
places.

lighting arrangement. The build
ing is heated by steam, lighted by
