Never mind him.Where is BlindBowman?
yeah on Cpt Bill. where is he ??
There was an interesting story here until a bunch of treasure hunters got involved in the conversation with their short one sentence posts having nothing to do with the story. By reading this story I 've come to the conclusion that treasure hunters have nothing to contribute to the story and nothing to say except asking about where the free coffee and food is at. Are treasure hunters nothing but free-loader? I wonder if the treasure hunters even know how to read. It must be that their grandkids read the story to them. By the way, it is not legal to treasure hunt in the Sups. And anyone who knows his stuff, except where the free lunch is next, knows the lost Dutchman's goldmine was found shortly after his death. It was called the bulldog. Talking to treasure hunters is like
DEagleds, I must disagree with the bulldog being the Dutchman. To far out from where Julia was told to go.
But the rest seems Liget

Of course, there are a lot of stories, and books, and these vary in their info, but the major "Old Timers", like Tom Kollenborn, all came to the conclusion that the Dutchman mine was in goldfield: Naming the Bulldog. You are right that most of the clues seem to fit. The only reason I checked this message board is because I got word, late word, that Tom passed away. Very, very interesting that both Tom and Gregory were pilots and the clue Crawford cited during the court cast to invalidate his La Barge mining claim involved results from the Forest service using an airplane. I think E. Taylor is right that the Dutch had two sites he was getting gold from. I think he came across the second one while he was trying to evade those who followed him, and also to lead them in the wrong direction; away from the deposit in goldfield. This had to have proved beneficial to the Dutch. Everyone following him thought he had just one mine, not two. This explains why each time he was followed he came back with gold, but he went to different places, and no one could pinpoint the location of the mine --- because there were two of them. This also explains why the Dutch was turning in gold at two different offices: Phoenix and Tucson. You know, Crawford gave gold nuggets to the old manager of Grand Hotel way back in the 1970s. He still has them. He showed them to me. Crawford was in La Barge. Anyway, back to the stones. All of Julia's followers seemed to be able to hear the stones and most of them were white settlers, not Indians. I will have to reread to figure out this info about any Indian warrior hearing the stones and no white people being able to hear them.
