What happens
Jose Gasparilla, a descendant of a pirate, loses his island home in a hurricane. Later he finds an old iron chest on the island, along with a rhyme that seems to point to buried pirate gold. Jose travels to Cape Cod, rents a cottage, and begins digging by night, while a local police chief visits and asks questions about a kidnapping. The series is Suspense, and this episode first aired on June 26, 1956, starring Edgar Barrier.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
