Treasure Tale From Cut Off Hills Draws Crossville Scribes
A Crossville report from the Carmi Partisan recalls a hidden gold treasure said buried in the cut off hills near Winkler’s ferry on the Indiana side. A dying man named Rapp allegedly revealed the spot to a blind friend, prompting locals to seek the trove with a small party of prominent citizens reportedly returning at night with faded horses. Other notes mention Crossville shipping 100 car loads of wheat and 30 of hogs, a merchant hiring a brass band, and local notes on lodges, a poor-house population, blood drinkers in Mt. Carmel, and Crossville’s desire for a barber shop.
