[The story]
This happened several years ago and was related to me. I've heard nothing about it since. You can believe it or don't. NP
You posted this tale previously on another forum (Lost Dutchman catagory?). How can you possibly expect people to "believe" when all the important details are blanked out? What's up with that? Even the most outrageous treasure tales in the pulp magazines provide enough information to make them sound like halfway believable adventure yarns. Heck, the 1909 Phoenix Gazette tale (sounding suspiciously like yours) provided plenty of names and places to help prop up Kinkaid's adventure. The same with Babcock's Chicomoztoc Superstition Mountains story. Even William White's crazy Caballo stories provide details. Roger Snow gives names, dates, places and first-person dialog. How are we supposed to take the stuff you posted seriously when you leave out the things that may make it worth pondering? Is THE MAN going to come get you if you spill the beans? Please explain.
