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 />
