F. Carmichael, while doing some garden work on Monday last, dug up fifteen pieces of bright silver money. It was dollar and half-dollar pieces, the half dollar pieces are United States coins and the dollar pieces Spanish coins. All of them bear dated from 1827 back to 1804. It is rumored that about $3,000 was buried there, and the ground will probably be torn up in search of the remainder of the supposed hidden treasury.
