A Fortune in Gold Vanishes
in the Oregon Wilderness…
CROOK COUNTY – What happened to a fortune in gold freebooted by a band of outlaws in 1863 near Prineville is still a mystery that may never be solved.
The identities of this group of six masked gunmen, who first robbed several sluice boxes near Canyon City before holding up a bank in Dayville, to this day remain unknown, as does what happened to a fortune in gold they were carrying when they narrowly escaped a posse by heading into the Oregon wilderness.
