Synopsis
Excerpt from A Maid of Old Manhattan
A sudden restless movement of relief among the Whites was plain evidence that they had nigh reached the end of their patience. For days the parley had been in progress, and they seemed no nearer their desire. The Dutchmen sought gold! Kieft, the Old governor of Nieuw Amsterdam had found it; but he had gone down with his ship carrying the secret of its whereabouts with him. Gossip had it that the Indians to the North knew Where it was, and they were there, a handful of desperate men, to solve the riddle of its hiding-place. They sought gold and, now that they felt it within their grasp, they were not minded to be balked of their reward by the stolid stubbornness of the painted savages.
