"Treasure Hunt Holiday"
Modesty's Rome adventure had netted an old scolled map & letter in old Latin.
She tucked it into her blouse while in the Tunnels and taken it back to Paris.
She thought the old map would make a great den wall picture and had it framed and hung.
The letter she sent to a french Antiquates Shop for translations.
When it came back the story read:-
Long ago, the Spaniards Monks were traveling to new Northern Mexican territory to set up new Missions
then set on by Hute Indians they buried eight burro-loads of 150 lb gold bars & coins
somewhere in the stone cliffs above the Purgatorie River about 5 miles east of Las Animas.
It is said that the gold bars were buried about 300 feet away from a strange arrangement of rocks,
one of which was in the shape of a child's doll and stood about 30 feet high.
The burial site was 100 miles north near an early 1800s village in the foothills.
However,before any of the gold could be retr or moved, the Spanish Monks were killed
and the treasure has never been recovered.
So Modesty thought Colorado Treasure hunt Holiday and maybe Retirement Fund.
She had no idea word had got out about what she had while the letter was being translated
now they were going follow and let her do the work of finding it and then take it from her
