Mystery of Oak Island Has Finally Been Uncovered, But Not Without A Major Cost

The Oak Island Association Takes Over

The efforts to find the treasure were not over just yet. In 1861, the Oak Island Association tried their hand at it.

The worst came when a water pump burst and killed one of the laborers. Things were looking bad.
