The story of his life reads like fic tion. Pokol, 45 years ago. was a simple school teacher In the little town of Borpatek. Hungary. Decades before, this district had been a gold mining center. The gold fever never has died out there. A handful of gray-bearded dlgeers. who will not be discouraged by hundred fold failures, atlll persist In the hope that, one dav. they will strike a rich vein of the precious yellow metal. Dowry Cold Claim The young schoolmaster seemed Immune against the fever until he married a poor peasant's daughter whose only dowry was a gold claim which the family had considered valueless and therefore long ceased to exploit. Pokol. trust ins blindly to his luck, not only invested his whole waees in the exploitation of the claim, reserv ing only a small part to cover the hare necessities of life of the young couple, but he even contracted debts with a wealthy crocer to pay the two men whom he had encased to dig. When the debt had run up to sev ers! Mmdred cuilders and no trace of the precious metal had been found, the sToeer nt his confidence in the promised golden ' harvest and told Pokol. when he rame for a new loan: "This la the last guilder I will risk in your enterprise: henceforth do not expAct another red penny from me." With this last milder, exactly s In a cheap novel, the school-teacher made hie luck The Strike On the eve of the day on which he had deride to give up. his workmen atru-k a vein of gold, two fingers thick. Overnight the poor school teacher had become a millionaire. Thla waa in 18P4. Pokol save up school teaching.
