 When they came to Rocky Point, the group looked at the map again.  There was a line drawn to  a picture  of one of the caves  located in the hills a short  distance beyond the rocks.
 
 “Look at this,”  Mr. Lomber said pointing to a drawing on the  map that looked like a skull and cross bones. “It seems that   the map is leading us to... that cave, over there.”

Mr. Lomber then pointed to a small cave near some trees.   “Yes,  that looks like the one.”

 “Is there anything else on the map?” asked  Jeff Foster.

“Yes, actually,  there is, Mr. Foster,” said Mr. Lomber. There is yet another rhyme written next to the picture of the cave opening. There is also an arrow pointing to the cave itself."

"The rhyme  says,

“You’re very close, it will be
..............found,
  By digging 2 feet, in the ground.
The treasure chest will come to view,       The woman knew not what to do.”


David groaned. “ I think I understand the first three lines.  But that last sentence is  really weird.”

“The rhyme seems to be telling us that the treasure is buried in the cave,” said Aaron.“All we need to do is go into the cave and dig down 2  feet."
