Treasure Trove Filming Locations

Patience and Anne, two spinsters of the old school of aristocratic birth, have managed to keep up appearances under very trying conditions and with limited means, until they are reduced to such circumstances they are obliged to sell their household furnishing, of antique pattern, to raise the necessary "wherewithal" to live and pay the mortgage off the old home. They place a sign on the outside of their house, advertising the antiques for sale, and with sad hearts await prospective purchasers. A wealthy man and his wife are passing in their automobile, seeing the card on the house, enter the hall, select the choicest pieces of the furniture and bric-a-brac, leaving instructions for their delivery C.O.D. To part with the associations of a lifetime is like losing old friends, and the two sisters, with troubled minds, retire, trying to lose themselves in sleep. During the night a vision of their father, whose portrait hangs in the parlor, appears to Patience in a dream, and leads her to a secretaire or desk in which is hidden a document giving full instructions about a treasure hidden in the garden of their home. Unconscious of what has happened in reality, she goes back to bed. In the morning when they come down to the old reception room they find the desk open and the secret packet disclosed with its contents. They withdraw the document, and learn of the hidden treasure, which they soon unearth in the garden and find themselves possessed of plate and coin sufficient to move the mortgage and make them comfortable for the rest of their lives, without disposing of any of their much-prized belongings.
