Holmes' "Missing" directions
Hello All,
I am new to forums as well as to researching the Dutchman Mine. I have been reading on The Lost Dutchman Mine for about two months and my studies have included the "Bible" by Corbin and two books by T.E. Glover. I have also taken a few trips horseback to get more familiar with the mountains. They are magnificent as well as treacherous.
My question is, has anyone ever revealed the "missing clues" that Brownie Holmes left out of "The Manuscript"? The clues that would lead from the "hidden camp" to the actual mine. From what i have read, they stop after finding the camp, and Brownie obviously left out the remaining clues on purpose, in my opinion.
I believe i have read the clues that were "left out" by Brownie, mostly on the internet. It was easy to dismiss a lot of the clues at first, thinking that most of them might have been "made up" by other people. But as I read the "Holmes Manuscript" over and over, some of the clues taken from the internet seemed to have been written in the same fashion or, wording, as the Manuscript. It's kind of like reading your favorite author, and recognizing their "writing style".
In my opinion, other clues I have gotten from the internet, seem to come from the Petrasch side for the same reasons. I believe there were more clues given to Hermann than i read in the "Bible", but disreguarded by Hermann because Julia and Rhiney didnt "say the same thing".
Being new to this, i was just wondering if there is a source or book that anyone knows of that reveals the "missing clues"? I'm sure if there is not, it's because they are "family secrets" that will never be revealed.
Thanks in advance,
Travis
