DUG UP HIDDEN TREASURE
California Community Greatly Elk.
cited Over Mysterious Actions
Of Stranger.

The people OF this community are
wondering who was the mysterious
stranger who visited the ancient
adobe but a mile north of here a few
evenings ago and dug up a box of
can that had been buried there fifty
years or more. says an Oakland cor
respondent of the San Francisco
Chronicle. 1t is supposed he carried
away a large quantity Of gold bull
lion that belonged to Granville Swift,
an early day miner who lived In this
hut while operating in the mines in
the hills east Of Chico. leaving in the
early COS with nearly s750.000 in
gold, which took six weeks to weigh
and required a pack train and strong
guard to transport out of the country.
The stranger was seen lettering
about the adobe but one evening, and
Mr.. Fawcett, who lives near, tried
to learn his mission. but failed. The
next morning Fawcett found where
box or can had been dug up during
the night. There were several stakes,
showing that measurements had been
made from a chart to locate the place
to dig. Only one hole was made.
When Granville Swift weighed his
gold he found two or more large por-
ter bottles of 1t missing. 1t is sup
posed they were stolen and buried and
that this stranger learned of their
whereabouts.
