Hi White's Electronics:
Dear Whites My name is Matthew M. I bought a Whites TM 808
a few years back and just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed
your products. When I first purchased your machine I was learning
to use it in my yard when I got a very nice beep under a large
stone in my driveway which this stone was over two feet thick.
I decided to remove this large stone which after a few minutes
of digging did I realize that a large X was carved very deeply
into the stone. Pictures of pirates burying loot ran through my
mind which slowly faded into reality because they didn't pirate
here along the massachusetts coast. I located the target which
was a very old padlock. upon locating this rock and padlock I
decided to research lost treasure which after much research I
realized that Pirates were indeed here in Massachusetts . The most
searched for treasure associated with pirates was the lost cache
of William Kidd. After a bit more of research I found that William
Kidd left Albany Ny. and after returning to Long Island sound he
was seen unloading three iron chests which have not been found. To
my surprise I learned that the Housatonic river flows into Long
Island sound realizing this I decided to search for more artifacts
and treasure because this rock and padlock were found on the banks
of the Housatonic river. The very next area I decided to try my
Whites TM 808 I got a very large beep also on the river bank I
started to dig it and soon realized I had found a very large Iron
chest it took several days to completely dig it up. Im sorry to say
that it was empty but more research led me to the description of
the three chests seen unloaded three hundred years earlier by
William Kidd the description fit perfectly right down to the space
between the rivets which are hand forged by a blacksmith. I am
currently trying to authenticate the chest . While I am waiting on
that I am now continuing my search for Kidds lost cache which I now
have determined possibly lies in a cave here near my home which has
been sealed closed by someone very likely an associate of William
Kidd. I am sending you a picture of my treasure hunting son sitting
on our best find yet. Thank you so much for helping my son and I
live an adventure that can not be replaced by any amount of treasure.
Sincerely,
Matthew M.
