Lt Rivers, a Willamette rancher, plans a two week start from Oregon City to seek Captain Kidds treasure rumored to lie in a coastal cave near Nestucca beach. The tale began years ago after a fortune teller warned of a cave marked by a cross and a horse shoe where the treasure lies at the end of a log.
