Of this is a mere puny effort OF the
imagination beside the tremendous
contents of the boxes.

half the worth of this treasure which
is being sought for now. The complete

| LAWYERS. and the agreement that has
been made between DR.. owen IN Dehalt
of his partner, DR. Prescott, and the
| Duke of Beaufort, stipulates that the
boxes are to be sealed on their recov-
erv. and only opened in front of an
agreed committee, which includes his
torians and antiquaries and other eX-
perts.
There are 60 boxes in all supposed to
| lie hidden IL the cache. a vault has
been taken in the dukes name for
| their reception, and if they are found
they will be taken thither in charge
of special messengers. There IS TO be
no secrecy in their discovery just as
| there is no secrecy now in the work
of excavation. II has been recognized
| that if there are boxes to be found the
matter is of such epoch making impor-
tance that every stage of the digging
must be watched by those who repre-
sent public opinion. The contents of
the boxes, which DIR. Owen declares Is
stand revealed in the cipher. are:
The original manuscripts in Bacon's
handwriting of all the Shakespeare
plays.
The original manuscripts of the
works of Marlowe, Greene and Peele.
whose names DR.. Owens cipher de-
clares mask the writings of Bacon.
he manuscript of Sponsors Faerie
Queen another of Bacon's work.
The manuscript of Burton's Anato-
my of Melancholy
The manuscripts of Bacon's works
which he published under his own
name
Diaries containing the history of the
court Of France to which Bacon was
attached.
'The original death warrant Of Mary
Queen of Scots.
Important Masonic documents, the
full nature of which cannot be pub
lished
The great seal which Bacon had
bearing the words, 'Franciscus Del
Gratia Angliae, Franciae, Hiberniae
Rex, Fidei Defensor'
THE proofs that Bacon was all that
he claimed to be-namely, the rightful
heir to the throne.
''1'he proof Of the marriage between
Queen Elizabeth and Earl of Leicester,
which the title pages of many books
of the period hint at in emblems
The head of William Shakespeare"
DR.. owen stands firmly against the
storm of ridicule and contempt which
such a story as he tells is bound to
bring down on him. 1t is no new
theory with him, though 1t is new to
England. that Shakespeare was killed
by Bacon. He does not make this as
sertiOn idly; he makes il in the full
knowledge that he is searching for the
box that is the coffin of the head
among the other BOXES in the Wye
mud.
The actual murder is found in Mac
beth" where the fragment of the muir
der of Banquo forms the kernel of this
particular story hidden in the plays
This is DR.. owens story of how Bacon
killed Shakespeare:
William Shakespeare, who could
neither read nor write, was one the
figure heads whom Bacon uaed to hide
his true work. 1t happened that Ba-
con wrote a letter to his publishers
about the plays. which We're then being
published in a quartO form. He gave
this letter to Shakespeare to take to |
the publishers, but Shakespeare in
stead took the letter to a friend, who |
read it to him
r With this letter in his possession |
Shakespeare began a systematic black |
mail of Bacon. Time passed. and Bacon |
was made a peer and launched on the |
way to prosperity and all the time |
Shakespeare was importuning him.
In 1916. according TO DR.. Owen and |
his cipher. Shakespeare's demands be- |
came so great that Bacon and his
friend Ben Jonson went to Stratford-
onAvon. There was a meeting that
was stormy. They probably met in
some quiet lane unobserved and cloak
ed. Shakespeare stood to his ground
and threatened to send a letter to King
James, the puritanical king. If the
king knew that Bacon had written
plays at that period he would have
stood about as much chance of promo
ton (here l quote DR.. Owen) "as an
icicle in the furnace or a acknowledged
