Gold Nugget Found

The residents of Glencoe, Ky., 40 miles from Covington, are greatly excited over the finding of a gold nugget by a man named Weber on the property of William Ellis.  The nugget was almost as big as a small hickory nut and a traveling man paid Weber $4 for it.  Ellis has refused a large sum of money for his property.  He has engaged a number of men to dig for gold.
