    (continued from previous page)
    are told that box and its treasure is down at the bridge below our school. Some people even dug deep into the earth with hopes of finding it but so far no one has discovered the hidden treasure.
    The story of the Hidden Treasure is well known in the district and I was told it by Michael Roberts who was ninety years when he died.
