The Chlünteler Treasure:
An iron chest was found in the Chlüntelersee, about as big as a lying chest and with a lock on it. It is worth its full value. No miracle is so strange. How did the treasure get into the lake? Did a troop or a silly boy get into it? It was a prince and his name was Suvorov and he was a general. In 1799 he led a troop of Russian soldiers over Prague and drove the French out of Glarus, as he did. But the troops built it and defended themselves like lions. They hit and beat with rifle and cannon, as if the gang were in hell. When Suvorov got there, it seemed as if he was slapping his head against the wall, and he said to his men: "We're putting my fortifications between the mountains. If the enemy doesn't weigh the war treasury now, the best thing would be to fly them to sea. They can hold on until we come back!" And that's what they did. But Suvorov never came into the gang, and not even any of the soldiers who had the gang in. She is still working on the bare feet today, one of them is sawing at the back of the bear's path; she thinks she is the quickest to find them on the Seerüti. One thing is certain: whoever brings her up will be a made man!
