The mystery of this pit of Oak Island in Canada, whose bottom could not be reached despite being won for 221 years, was discovered in 1795. At first, they carved the hole that they tried to dig with the thought that it might be a treasure, but they could not reach the end. Here is the mysterious pit of Oak Island ...
Oak Island is a tiny island near Nova Scotia Island in the east of Quebec province, Canada. Oak means oak, and this island gets its name from the red oak island that covers it.
THIS TIME THE MYSTERY OF THE ISLAND WAS DISCOVERED IN 1795
16-year-old Daniel McGinnis, who canoed around the island in the summer of that year, started walking on the island.
Walking from an old pathway into the forest, the young man went to a tree-free area. There was only one large oak tree in this open area.
One of the branches of the tree was pruned, and the pruned parts stretched about 5 meters above a hillock in the soil.
This dent spot drew the attention of Daniel McGinnis. He thought it might be a treasure. He immediately returned to his home, 6 km from the island, to Chester.
The next day, he returned to Oak Island with John Smith, 20, and Anthony Vaughn, 13. The trio set up to dig the pit was surprised at the first working hours, there was a hole covered with stones about 60 cm below the surface.
Three meters below, the entrance was covered with oak logs. The young people continued to work, They encountered the same logs from 6m to 9m. Friends who gave up, came back.
THIS EVENT CAUSED THE LEGENDARY RECREATION
The young people, who started to seek support to go to Chester to find the treasure they believed, could not get the support they wanted from the local people.
The mother of a Chester woman was one of the first to settle in the area. The woman spoke of a memory.
At first, fires and strange lights appeared on the island. A boatload of men went to examine what was going on. Then they disappeared without a trace behind them.
According to the woman, a smart person should not have passed near this island.
THERE WAS TRY AGAIN AGAIN AFTER YEARS The
The trio was able to get their expected help from Simeon Lynds, who was 30 years old, exactly 9 years later.
Lynds was impressed by the story that Anthony Vaughn told him. He established a partnership with three young people to help them research.
Meanwhile, John Smith had bought some of the land surrounding the place they had dug. During the next 30 years, he managed to buy the remaining part piece by piece.
Eventually, the entire East side of the island would pass to his property. The group went to mysterious Oak Island in 1804.
The story is very interesting and long. Please comment if you want more details...
