asked to learn more, he had been stopped<br />
short. Enlistment in the Navy had cut short his<br />
initiation. The passing of his two relatives left<br />
him still itching to solve a mystery.<br />
Months of research and a lot of boot<br />
leather ultimately brought Brewer to his own<br />
theory. Certain trees in the Ouachita (pronounced<br />
Wash-a-taw) mountains of Arkansas<br />
carried strange markings. They were typically<br />
red and white Oak trees, and some were decorated<br />
with more symbols than others. He called<br />
one tree the “Blaze Tree” and another the<br />
“Bible Tree.” These were at the heart of the<br />
codes. The Bible<br />
Tree led to passages<br />
in the Bible that in<br />
turn described symbols.<br />
The symbols<br />
on the trees then<br />
helped put together<br />
directions.<br />
As much as these<br />
directions were <strong>com</strong>plicated<br />
to an outsider,<br />
they did enable<br />
Brewer to dig up two<br />
actual treasures. Although<br />
everyone in<br />
the area seemed to<br />
swap stories of<br />
Spanish treasure, he<br />
saw them for what<br />
they were, outlaw<br />
stashes. Often they<br />
were gold coins,<br />
which made them<br />
even more valuable<br />
for their numismatic<br />
quality.<br />
Brewer then<br />
made the mistake of<br />
letting someone<br />
know about his good luck. From then on he<br />
felt he was being followed and watched. He<br />
was, he later reported.<br />
So with a number of reasons to look outside<br />
of Arkansas, he crossed the border into<br />
Oklahoma. Here he found a tree with a carved<br />
snake. Brewer didn’t have time to continue the<br />
search, but back home he again told someone<br />
with more than a passing interest. He was<br />
warned to stay away.<br />
At another site, after plotting the probable<br />
dig site for two days, Brewer returned on a third<br />
day to find an effigy of a man riddled with bullets.<br />
Near Mena, Arkansas, he was warned off<br />
by two men with handguns. The veteran Navy<br />
man would not give up, though, and his efforts<br />
eventually yielded still another find, this time a<br />
kettle with mostly gold coins.<br />
Oklahoma was the homeland for the Chickasaw<br />
people as well as a settlement for various<br />
Europeans, including early Spanish settlers.<br />
Through his widening circle of treasure hunters,<br />
Brewer tells how he was introduced to various<br />
books, maps, and letters pointing to treasures.<br />
One was the Madrugada Estrella Map. It was<br />
basically a crude six-pointed star, a Masonic device<br />
as well as the Star of David, with marked<br />
trees and rocks and a symbol indicating<br />
$200,000 in gold coin. Such a find might be<br />
worth about $15 million today. Brewer was<br />
convinced he knew where the map pointed, but<br />
untrustworthy partners, uncooperative landowners,<br />
family obligations, and an injury would<br />
all serve to force him to pass up the find.<br />
Later an article on the KGC and their reach<br />
into the west to hide their postwar caches led<br />
Brewer to Arizona.<br />
This time with two<br />
partners, he was<br />
buzzed by a helicopter<br />
and challenged<br />
by a buzz-cut<br />
military type with a<br />
holstered weapon.<br />
One of Brewer’s partners<br />
convinced the<br />
man they were rockhounding.<br />
In Arizona’s<br />
Superstition<br />
Mountains, Bob discovered<br />
tablets—one<br />
with a figure he described<br />
as a monk, or<br />
perhaps even a Templar<br />
knight. Arizona<br />
is rich in lost gold<br />
mines and buried<br />
treasure stories. It was<br />
also a goal of the<br />
KGC to expand the<br />
southern states.<br />
South Carolina’s<br />
James Gadsden, he<br />
knew, had been sent<br />
Jesse and Frank James<br />
by pro-KGC president<br />
Franklin Pierce to make the deal that became<br />
known as the Gadsden Purchase. Brewer<br />
also came across a 1994 article from the Los Angeles<br />
Herald Examiner: “Ghosts of the Red<br />
Bluffs: Where is $80,000 in Confederate gold?”<br />
After all his years of searching for Confederate<br />
gold, some that paid off, most that didn’t,<br />
Brewer came to a most important conclusion.<br />
The KGC had apparently created certain grids<br />
where they buried their treasures. One in particular<br />
was in the form of Solomon’s Temple.<br />
Without knowing how the grid worked, one<br />
might dig up a kettle of coins but miss seven<br />
others. Such grids, he believes, exist in his<br />
home state as well as in Arizona, others as far<br />
away as France.<br />
Author Warren Getler, who has participated<br />
in treasure hunting expeditions as far away as<br />
Madagascar, authored Shadow of the Sentinel<br />
with Bob Brewer telling what he believes is the<br />
real story of Jesse James. Blood on the Moon, by<br />
Edward Steers, Jr., describes the massive size of<br />
the conspiracy to kill Lincoln.<br />
