A story that sounds more like one
Of the days of Captain Kidd and Lost
Treasure Island" bobs up right at
home and has something to bear out
its authenticity. Last week three
strangers, two of them Portuguese and
one Spaniard, came into Blythe in
an automobile. They remained there
for day and the following morning
they crossed the river at the Ehren-
berg ferry.
Since that time, however, there
comes a report that these three men
went from here direct to the old town
of La Paz, and, after search there
in the ruins of an old adobe build
ing, succeeded in uncovering and car
rying away gold to the amount of
something like 100000.
That the party went to La Paz and
did considerable excavation work at
that place inside the ruins of certain
old adobe buildings, is a certainty, but
the fact of the finding of any treasure
is not fully verified.
What gives credence to the story is
the fact that where these men did
the exeavating was in the ruins OF
an old building that in the early
and balmy days of La Paz was the
principal store and saloon of the
place. This place was owned and con
Quoted by one Francisco Rabana, n
Portuguese.
Rabana, in addition to conducting 4
general store and saloon, was the
principal buyer of gold dust in La
Paz, gold dust being the common me-
dunn of exchange in the camp in
those days.
Rabana was also the discover and
owner of the famous Goodwin mine,
which was producing gold in large
quantities during the early days.
One day while at the Goodman mine
Rabana received serious injuries from
--------~I - y, . fov-
days he died.
Rabana had no family, his wife hav-
ing died previously; nor did he have
any very intimate friends. 1t was gen.
orally known that he had much gold
dust stored about the place, as that
was the only way to keep it, there be-
ing no banks and transportation was
slow. People had seen this gold in
Rabana's possession which he kept in
sacks, dishes, etc.
However, when Rabana died the
only thing they found on his person
or about the premises was deposit 7
check in foreign bank for small
amount of money. No cash or gold
dust of any considerable amount was
discovered.
The fact that no gold could be
found on the Rabana premises led TO
numerous efforts on the part of many
to search for this supposedly lost
treasure.
Like all things of this nature the
fever became contagious, and men
have spent months, some have spent
years, looking and digging for Ra-
bana's gold, which so far as known.
was never found.
After the government had declared
La Paz to be located on an Indian
reservation and the inhabitants were

IMPERIAL VALLEY PRESS CENTRIC CALIFORNIA
$4,000 Hidden Treasure
Was Unearthed at La Paz

forced to move off, many man re
turned and dug in the old town, look
ing for lost treasure, and in this way
the earth about the old Rabana house
has been turned over many times.
About two years ago flood came
down the nearby mountains and over
flowed the old La Paz townsite. The
mud houses, affected by the awter
/ crumbled and fell, leaving naught but
mass of crushed adobes to mark the
walls of the houses which at one time
were the hahitations of three thousand
people who made up the population OF
flourishing mining camp.
The very last building to go down
from the effects of this flood was a
large adobe structure which at one
time served as the first court house
and Jail of Yuma county, La Paz be-
ing the first county seat.
Since the food has played havoc
with the buildings of La Paz, where
the cid Rabana buildings stood has
been covered with three or four feet
of debris, and not much excavating
has taken place, since it occurred, un-
til the other day, when the three
strangers mentioned dug number OF
holes inside the ruins of the old house.
One hole excavated by the last par
ty was dug to a depth of about
twelve feet, where water was encoun-
tered An old resident of La PaI
informs us that Rabana had we'll at
that point to furnish water for the
store and saloon.
Gold was first discovered in La Paz
Wash in the sos. Government and
private records show that more than
two MILLIONS of dollars were taken out I
during the life of the old camp. The .
gold came principally from placers
and nuggets were frequently discov-
cred valued at more than one hundred /
dollars each.
Since the government drove the in
hohi+orts Of La Paz from the Colorado
River Indian reservation, on which /
the town was located, the place has
been deserted. The buildings are all
destroyed, the streets have grown up
to mesquite brush, and the bones of
most of those who were buried in the
cemetery near the town, have become
exposed and are found lying about
on the ground.
Standing far above all the graves in
the old cemetery, is one large cement
tomb, which is said to be that of
Francisco Rabana's wife, who died
about five years before Rabana.
This cement vault has been partly
destroyed by vandals who, it is said,
were looking there for lost treasure
Rabana was buried near his wife's
tomb and his bones are now bleaching
on the hills above La Paz, mingled
with those that are constantly being
rolled about. If spooks like solitude
and ever walk, old La Paz is an ideal
place for them.
