the gold out until the time locks would
permit the opening Of the safes at 9
o'clock in the morning. Then Man.

gon, with the aid OF several soldiers to
guard the treasure, removed $500,OOO
in gold to the nearest safe deposit
vaults, that were then we'll outside OF
the zone where the fire was raging.
His first thought was to carry the
treasure to Oakland, but so many oil
the streets leading to the ferry were
blocked by crumbling walls that it was
found impossible TO take the coin out
side of San Francisco, and it was
placed in safe deposit vaults within q
few blocks of his bank.
