1857 The Great Uprising

An Indian Perspective

Nana’s treasure discovered

December 22

We got the story of the search for Nana’s treasure from an eye witness.
He told us that after all the water was drained out they discovered heavy beams of wood at the bottom of the well. The beams were lifted with great difficulty and lo and behold! Under the beam lay unimaginable amounts of glittering treasure! There was so much treasure that the men worked for more than ten days to bring out all the silver, gold and the priceless gems from the bottom of the well.
There was much excitement in the British forces as it was being circulated that each private would receive over a thousand rupees in prize money. However, they got nothing. We are told that everything was claimed by the Government.
