Kodasema Manor

German: Koddasem

The Engelhardts owned Kodasema from 1774 until the land reform of 1919, but their house has not survived. It was pulled down in 1936, and during the demolition a local man, Bernhard Puss, found a tin box hidden above the ceiling. Inside were 34 silver roubles, another fifty roubles in small silver coins and a ten-rouble gold piece. The story goes that the first thing he did with his treasure was buy himself a new pair of tall boots. The manor lands now lie within the town of Paide.

Eesti keeles

Engelhardtidele kuulus Kodasema mõis 1774. aastast kuni 1919. aasta maareformini, kuid nende peahoone ei ole säilinud. See lammutati 1936. aastal ja lammutustööde ajal leidis kohalik mees Bernhard Puss lae pealt peidetud plekk-karbi. Selles oli 34 hõberubla, 50 rubla väärtuses peenemat hõberaha ja üks kümnerublane kuldraha. Räägitakse, et kõigepealt ostis ta oma aarde eest endale uued säärikud. Endise mõisa maad jäävad tänapäeval Paide linna piiresse.
