Kelly Wakefield, the gardener, was tending to the flowerbeds at Taylor Park when she discovered a peculiar rock. Etched onto the stone were a skull and crossbones, along with a cryptic code. Intrigued, Wakefield recognized the code as a clue from the book "Lady Liberty's Treasure Hunt," which she had been reading. Following the clue, she dug and found a stash of valuable silver and gold coins, various antiques, and a Civil War-era bullet. "It's really neat to have a Civil War bullet in your hand," Wakefield said, expressing her excitement over the unexpected discovery. The author of "Lady Liberty's Treasure Hunt" has suggested that other similar treasure chests might be hidden in New England, adding an element of mystery and anticipation to the story.
