Buntingville
Lassen Advocate - February 1906 - Honest Young Man. A legal
publication in these columns, rather unusual in it character, furnishes
proof that the old-time principles of honor and integrity still abide with
us. A short time since Chas. E. Spoon, a young man residing on the Martin
place below Buntingville picked up a can containing two hundred and eighty
dollars in gold coin. The can had evidently been buried by someone, and had
been thrown out upon the surface by a previous occupant presumably G.W.
Reynolds, while digging a post hole. It had lain undisturbed upon the ground
until picked up by Mr. Spoon, who is seeking if he may find the owner. Who
buried this money may never be known; or it may be. In either case Mr.
Spoon's course is commendable.
