The Case of the Missing Miner: A 15-Minute Brodericks Mystery, Educational Version

"I've gotten most of what I need to finance the trip," Jim said eagerly. "I just need your share to help cover the cost of supplies and travel.
"I put in 5,000 myself. If you give me 5,000 more it will be enough to get everything I need. See, I've got it all planned out."
Jim eagerly handed over a list of the supplies he would need for the trip and their costs. Mr. Broderick had to admit that it was a pretty thorough list.
Kendall waited for his turn to see the list. He knew his dad would show it to him and Jamie. After all, he had asked them to join him in this meeting.
Kendall felt proud of that. Their father believed enough in their sleuthing abilities to ask their help in something he wasn't sure of. And you couldn't ever be sure of anything where Jim Michaels was concerned.
Jim was their father's cousin. He was a great guy, but he liked to get involved in some strange adventures. This was no exception.
Jim had dropped by and told them about a letter he had bought. The letter was written by an old prospector who was looking for gold in Alaska. He had found it, but hadn't been able to bring the gold out.

Find out if the letter is real or a fake.
