PERUVIAN GOLD
ON ISLAND OF COCOS

OAKLAND, Cal, Dec. ss.-Armed

OF a cutlass-with expensive and ultra
modern excavating machinery instead
OF the usual pick and shovel-E. I.
West, a mining engineer and master
mariner Of Oakland. Will shortly sail
for the far-famed island Of Cocas. in
the South Seas, there TO conduct a
search for the vast accumulations OF
pirate loot said 10 be cached In the
sands.
Former expeditions have carried pi-
rate charts and worked by moon or
lantern light, just as the buccaneers
who buried II worked. Practically
the same charts vii be used by West.
who has spent 20 years Of his life
studying the history Of the buried loot.
In 1885 the barkentne Mary Dier,
Captain Thompson. from Bristol, Eng
land, anchored of Callao, Peru. This
was at a time when Peru and Chill
were at war. and il looked as though
millions Of dollars worth Of treasure
boarded at Lima would fall into the
hands Of the Chileans. TO prevent this,
Peruvian officials hurried the treasure
TO CallaO and put 10 aboard the Mary
Dier for British protection.
The sight OF great wealth proved too
much for Captain Thompson and his
crew. During the night they cut the
ships cables and put TO sea. The gold
and Jewels were buried on Cocos Island
and for the next two years the Mary
Dier was a pirate vessel preylng on
Spanish ships of the South American
coast.
The Peruvian Secret Service later
located the buccaneer at st. Johns,
Newfoundland. He escaped arrest by
slowing away aboard a vessel bound
for Liverpool. a few years later a man
giving the name Of Keaton claimed TO
have been at the bedside Of the last pi-
rate when he died. In payment for kind
ness, he alleged Thompson gave him
charts TO the location Of the buried
treasure.
West believes Thompson did not die.
but assumed the name Of Keaton and
invented the deathhed tale TO avoid ex-
tradition to Peru. At any rate, Keaton
led an expedition TO Coooas and un-
earthed $4,000 in gold. which he car
ried to st. Johns. His visits were
made in 1874 and 1916. In 1860 he gave
his charts 10 CaptaiR liackett. a |
nephew, who a short time later died Of |
yellow fever at Havana while en- route !
TO Cocos. Keaton died the following |
year.
In 1902 Keaton's widow led an ex-
pedition for the remainder Of the loot /.
4 landslide had changed the ground at !
the spot marked on the chart, but Mrs |
Keaton found a diamond-studded sword !
OF great beatty, which her husband had |
told her was buried beneath lone tree |
u Is now IN the museum at Montreal !

Many expeditions have since sought |
the treasure with pick and shovel, but

ton before her death and says he OBJ !
