    About this ebook

    "I knew it! I knew this old mine still had a lot of gold in it! An' now that I know this mine's still got a lot of gold, I can make a claim, and I'll be made for life!"

    "You see that, boys! I struck it rich! I'm rich an' so are you! You three helped me set things up here, so I'm going to share my profits with you! Don't worry we'll cut it evenly among ourselves an' we'll have a lot to live off of. There's a lot more where that came from in there!"
    Samuel showed the small ounces of gold on his palm to the three men. He showed them off proudly like a parent showing his friends his newborn child. The men still did not look impressed.
