large Booty taken in the City of
Kingston.
Patterson edged away from the camp
and made a detour for their boat.
reaching it, he found in it several
kegs of gold and silver coin. Quickly
pushing the Skiff off, he got in and
drifted out of earshot, and then took
up the oars and pulled for the mouth
of the Creek. he found a place suited
to his needs and sunk the treasure.
and then rowed back, beached the boat

Hmm after looking at google earth one would think he put it by one of the islands... Chippewa point looks to be a park of some sort, seems like if one could reenact the situation might help...
