Eccentric Miser Hides Wealth,
Then Looses His Reason
A FORTUNE OF $200,000
August Konrad Tries to Reveal His
Secret Before Death in Letter to
His Daughter, But , Fails Died
Last October.
NEW YORK, June 26.-In an ad
vertisement printed in a morning
paper lies the last hope of a Tarry
town family of recovering a fortune
estimated as hitfh as $2tX,(X, which
Augustus Konrad, eccentric "miser,
concealed while in health and tin
hiding place of which he was unable
to reveal after disease had suddenly
destroyed his reason.
Konrad died in the Pughkecpsie
insane hospital in October of last
year. Before his death he gave evi
dence of desiring to tell the attend
ants something and he even attempt
ed to place his thoughts in writing a
letter to his daughter, but the result
was an incoherent jumble of words.
At the end he had to be cared for as
a babv, but through it all he insisted
on being allowed to retain three keys
one to his home at Tarrytown; a
second to a trunk which he always
kept locked, and a third, the myster
ious key, to a safe deposit vault, in
which the family believes the written
evidence of his wealth reposes.
Since his death every effort has
been made to discover this vault,
N'ear by safe deposit companies have
been asked to aid, the comapny mak
ing the key has been appealed to, and
as a last resort decided to appeal for
aid in an advertisement.
Konrad when he died was S3 years
old and all his life was very much of
a mystery to his friends and family
as the hiding place of his fortune is.
A member of an old Lo'ng Island
family, he prepared for the ministry
only to become a carpenter, later
taking up florid culture in which he
became widely known as an authority
on orchids; he abandoned his flowers
to engage in the gas business in Tcr
rytown in which he amased a fortune.
He retired eight years ago.
In all his years he was remarkably
secretive about his affairs, never tak
ing his wife into his confidence. In
money matters he was very close.
Ten years ago he decided that his
family would have to support itself,
and since that time Mrs. Konrad
supported her children and herself in
the sale of women's clothing. The
last few years her son David has aid
ed in this.
Last July Konrad became ill and
was confined to his home. The doct
ors declared his trouble was a tumor
of the brain, due to an injury received
in a snow ball fight in childhood and
finally ordered his removal to Pough
keepsie. There is no need of anyone suffer
ing long with this disease, for to
effect a quick cure it is only neces
sary to take a few doses of
Chamberlain's
Goiic, Oiiolera and
Diarrhoea Remedy
In fact, in most cases one dose is
sufficient. It never fails and can be
relied upon in the most severe and
dangerous cases. It is equally val
uable for children and is the means
of saving the lives of many children
each year.
In the world's history no medicine
has ever met with greater success.
