Gold Bust

[Tiredman]

Currently I am posting portions of this on my "Lost Treasure" page on Facebook. It is about a gold rush that was a humbug as they said years ago. No reason to not share it with treasurenet since I enjoy their state treasure section. So here we go.

The finding of the material about the reward for the first baby born in the camp was why this book came to be. But still the gold boom did not last and many left, some stayed still believing their was a strike to be made.
