Mother Earth He was tempted to
reveal to Mr.. Sanchez the spot where
his treasure lay, but the latter begged
him not to tell him, as if perchance
some person should track him to his
hiding place and make away with the
money he might perhaps always sus-
pect Mr.. Sanchez as the only person
who knew his secret. Mr.. Futch was
urged to inform him wife, but he
declined to do this. He promised,
however, that if at any time he be-
came ill, or anything serious hap
pened to him, he would send for him
and tell him where the money was
hidden.
About four years ago Mr. Sanchez
received a hurried summons to go out
to the Futcn place He mounted a
saddle horse and galloped out to the
old farm. Mr.. Futch lay there speech
less and almost unconscious. He en-
deavored, however, to make signs
which were unintelligible and the
secret died upon his lips
Mr.. Sanchez told the story to Mrs.
Futch, who, ever since, until her
death, has been unceasing in her eff
forts to discover the treasure.
