SEEKS HIDDEN COLD
OF PIRATE ANCESTOR
Girl Descendant of Sir Henry
Morgan Finds Old Map
of Treasure Trove.
By BEN BODEC.
Cniversal Service.

NEW YORK. Dec. iO.-Echoes Of
stirring tales of the freebooters on
the Spanish Main. A fair descend
ant OF the famous pirate of $50
years ago, S.r Henry Morgan, is to
lead an expedition in quest of
sunken treasure!
The lost treasure of gold plate.
bullion. and rare jewels. perhaps
worth a million dollars. lies hidden
under less than sixty feet Of water
in a little secluded bay somewhere
in the West Indies,
a map. traced with a red fluid
perhaps blood-outlines the position
Of this little bay and tells the pre-.
else location Of the treasure.
This map came into the possession
of Virginia Morgan. a direct de-
scendant of the pirates family. n
few years ago. Now this pretty
girl, who halls from North Carolina,
plans to head her own expedition to
recover the long-lost treasure of
gold and gems.
Three Columbia University stu
dents and a New York lawyer are
taking care of the details of the
venture for Miss Morgan and two
girl friends who are i'm on the Sc
cret plan to go on the expedition.
As for the history of the million
dollar treasure: 1t was the year
1871, Henry Morgan was the com.
mander of several vessels and about
1900 troops in the famous >raid
upon Panama. During the attack
on the capital city a salleon loaded
with gold plate and jewels and
manned by several survivors of the
city set sail under cover of the
darkness.
Sir Henry gave pursuit in his
largest vessel and set the fleeing
ship on fire. The crew ran the
ship to the beach. Soon the powder
magazine caught fire and blew up,
sinking the vessel only u few hun.
dred feet from shore.
Sir Henry then made a map OF
the location and sailed off intend.
ing some time to return for the
treasure.
