ITEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN. ATLANTA, C,A.. SUNDAY, AUGUST 3. 1913. 5 D ALL THE LATEST, LIVELIEST NEWS OF FLORIDA IT BOTTOM OF 145-FOOT III Report From Pass-a-Grille Says Forgotten Spanish Galleon Has Been Located. Mrs. Walter Eustace Sirmai\s Of Way cross, and her two children, ustaee and Edith Now- lan. Before her marriage Mrs. Sirmans was a Miss Thiot, of Savannah. She is one of the most beautiful and popular mem bers of Wvcross society. (Photograph by Dolan, Way cross.) JACKSONVILLE. Aug:. 2.—Fortune hunters are flocking: to Pass-a-Grille looking: for gold. No Death Valley mines have been found, but it is re ported that an old forgotten Span ish galleon has been located. Pass-a- Grille is a wee bit of a town located on one of the numerous keys just off the West Coast of Florida near the city of St. Petersburg. A well is being dug to supply the town with water, and it was while this work was being done that the excite ment gtarted. The drill had sunk into the earth with regular thuds for a distance of 145 feet. Suddenly a pe culiar substance was hit and the work was stopped. Upon resuming opera tions the drillers found that pieces of wood were being pumped out of the new well. This was kept up un til twelve or fourteen inches had been added to the depth of the well. These pieces of wood were collected. They filled a peck measure. The grain was so filled with fine sand that it was Impossible to determine the kind of wood the drill had been cutting, but scientists who have examined the small pieces declare that the log or beam from which they were cut by the drill is well preserved. People there are puzzled to figure out how a piece of well preserved timber could be located 145 feet be low the surface. However, it is point ed out that no hard pan had been en countered when the wood was struck. This would indicate that the timber was covered by the sand that had been drifting into the cove at the end of the island for 200 to 300 years. The more romantic believe that the wood was drilled from the timbers ot a lost Spanish treasure ship or from some pirate's boat. Already plans have been suggested for the formation of a company to dig a deep open well by the side of the one now being drilled to discover what is at the bottom. Several soldiers of fortune are already on the ground who are willing to take a chance.
