With their passing, comes the time for the appearance of the book named for their riverg therefore the Junior class presents this, the fifteenth volume of The Cohongoroota, to its readers, hoping that they may find that it compares favorably with its pred- ecessors. This Annual not only represents the climax of another year's work at Shepherd College, but through its pages sends us back to the days of long ago, as we retell the legends and traditions that have been handed down through the years by our forefathers. We Wish to thank all who have had a part in making The Cohongoroota a success, including President White. Miss Turner, Mr. H. L. Snyder, and our advertisers. In the future may our memory follow the liight of the wild geese hack to our happy college days through the medium of this book. l - - 4 - ' -'T ,, I T-, gs f' ' Y .,, H 451 . .

We- thought ourselves the very essence of pep, and We lost a great deal of self-esteem and gained a great deal of respect for the Seniors when they were awarded the spiritus contest banner in 1927. It was not long until we were Seniors, weighted down with sophis- tication and wisdom. Difficulties have confronted us, of course, but We have tried to make of them stepping stones to success. The rating of the individuals of the class averages high. As students, their names are recorded in the Upper Ten. In forensics, the class has always contributed the orator to represent Shepherd in the inter-collegiate contests and its numerous debaters have been an important factor in winning laurels for the school. During both years of our college career, there have been starring members on all athletic teams Who are also members ot' our class. We may count as only one more graduating class in the annals of Shepherd College, but as individuals we feel that it is an honor and a privilege to belong to the I. O. Ash class of nineteen twenty-eight. --Claire Schley, '28, if -fffgggs ig A W - r -V '51, ., 'U UI W' ii W S . SSSSSS xx 1. .5 'L gi .n I ii as IH- , .L.

'ss f e JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY On Friday, October 7, 1927, after two preliminary meeta ings, the Juniors of Shepherd College, numbering a hundred strong, gathered in the auditorium of Knutti Hall to hold the election of officers for the year. Among the group gathered there that day were representatives from iifteen counties of West Virginia and from three other states. Being a peppy group, the Juniors decided at their very first meeting to take part in all activities of the school, and their record for the year shows that they carried out their good intentions. The class has furnished seven members of the football squad, five of the men's basketball team, seven of the girls' basketball team and eleven of the hockey team. Five Juniors are members of the Upper Ten, and five are inter-society contestants. The class was also well represented in the forensic field, having two members on the interecolleg- iate debating team which won three successive victories. When things began to be quiet around the school after the first semester examinations were over, the Juniors decid- ed to hold the annual Junior prom on Saint Valentine's night. This was unanimously voted the most enjoyable dance ever held in the gymnasium. The next thing which seriously claimed the attention of the Juniors was the annual class play. After several weeks of strenuous rehearsals, Icebound, a drama in three acts by Owen Davis, was presented on March the twenty- fourth in McMurran Hall. It Was agreed by those who saw this play that the acting was of a quality not often found in the ranks of amateur players. The greatest undertaking of the class has been the pub! lication of The Cohongorootan and as it goes to press the Juniors breathe a sigh of relief and consider this a year well spent. -Jo White, '29 1 1... 1 1 ... 1 -..,..-...1....- fu--f1f: .-il' 1 3 -W - - - - ----, , S.

Two years later, a rival society was formed bearing the name of the Ciceronian Literary Society. They hold their meetings each Friday, although the practice of meeting together, alternating each week was tried at the beginning of the first semester. The plan was not so satisfactory as it might have been, due to the fact that many of the members were absent. They are now holding their meetings separately and simultaneously. The Ciceronians have indeed been fortunate in having a number of musicians, essayists, speakers and debaters who have given enjoyable programs. One special feature of both societies is the readings given by different students from the Public Speaking classes. One of the best programs given by the Ciceronians was on October 14, when they enter- tained the Parthenians. The Hrst number was a song by the societies, Hail, West Virginia. A reading entitled The New Baby by Mary Lou Pitzer was followed by a solo by Miss Mabel Hall who sang two numbers, Jean and the Rosary, Dorothy L. Jones then gave a reading, Silent Peter. The meeting closed with a song, Alma Materf' Other programs were equally enjoyed however, some being featured with banjo, harmon- ica, and ukulele selections. The Parthenians entertained the Ciceronians at a joint meeting on December 16th. They were honored with the presence of Dr. W. H. Reese who told a pleasing story about what different nations have con- tributed to make Christmas what it is. Clayton Rosselle then sang several humorous selections, accompanied by Merle Shultz on the ukulele. Mrs. W. H. S. White then gave a greatly enjoyed reading, The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry. The program closed with a violin solo by Charlotte Estep accompanied by James Andrews at the piano. On March 2, a pantomime was given in the Parthenian hall in which Nell Teter, Grace Knott, Lona Keister, Winona Collins, Henrietta Grandle and Hubert Radcliffe were the entertainers. Another feature of this program was a reading Jim and I, given by Maude Dolan. The inter-society contest held in June of each year, has been an in- teresting event for over thirty years. The Ciceronians won the contest +-------- 1--- - ---- ------- . - - -. 1 1 ------------ -------+ gin... .... -...ni QII. inn 1-1-1Q -1 1 1. bu Co I --1i-i1ii1i1 nuznofn Pngc forty-sim f I 1 - ...,-V, l ai , -. - -E , last year but the outcome is uncertain this year as both societies have selected some of the most outstanding students to represent them. The Y. W. C. A. has been very active this year. Several interesting and instructive lectures were given, and readings and musical numbers by members of the organization added immensely to the programs which occur every two weeks on Thursday evening. On October 6, Mr. H. I.. Snyder gave a pleasant address on the benefits to be derived from the Y. W. C. A. Miss Frances Ramsburg, a former president of the organ- ization, entertained the young women on October 20 with an appropriate address. Miss Mabel Hall also gave an interesting talk on Tastes, which served to inspire one to do the pleasing and beautiful things in life, and to shun people who indulge in slangy expressions or obscene stories. As a whole the Y. W. C. A. has served a good cause and should inspire future teachers to put forth their best efforts in one of the most important walks of life, that of teaching citizenship to the younger gen- eration. Twice each month the class of student teachers meets for an hour of stories and games. The hour is one of the most delightful spent in Shepherd College. In the story circle it seems that it is easier to get acquainted with each other, and during the period of informal play that follows the business session a bond of fellowship develops that holds through the years. So while the big purpose of the Story Telling Club is the developing of power to tell stories effectively, they do not overlook the fact that their meeting together also gives them the opportunity to practice co-operating effectively. The Shepherd College Orchestra is indeed a valuable source of en- tertainment and a stimulus to liven the Faculty and students who are sometimes burdened with work. It appeared at assemblies at various times, and added much to the enjoyment of the exercises. It made its first public appearance of the year at the annual Homecoming dance. It also furnished music at several other socials, both on and off the campus. The Orchestra helped a good cause when it offered its services to the members of the Shepherdstown Fire Department who had not yet finished paying for the fire truck. The music served to draw many people to the bazaar, who after getting inside were so inspired by the melodies that they were soon spending money right and left. The orchestra also played between the acts at the Junior play. Although the newest organ' ization at Shepherd college, it has already taken an active part in the .ii ni 4 i i 1 1 1 ii il . iiiii .- --n-1--nu:-n-un-1:1--mein 3, i gg L or g C : , Z, s, C,, ...... .-..-..-..-..-..-..-..,.

The woman's Glee Club and Town Choral Club under the direction of Miss Marie McCord has been a thoroughly entertaining organization, giving many delightful programs during the year. The Glee Club sang at the Homecoming and at the Christmas Carol program in the auditor- ium. At different times, some of its members played or sang at the assemblies. A more recent event enjoyed by all, was the Lenten Cantata. Olivet to Calvary by Maunders, given in Knutti Hall on Palm Sunday night. The organization should be an encouragement to all young lovers of music. The Shepherd College Alumni Association, with a membership of fifteen hundred men and women scattered throughout this state and many others, is the largest and most important organization of the College. Each year many of the old grads come back for reunions with classmates and Faculty members. Saturday November 19 was set apart for the annual Homecoming day, which was probably the most successful of any yet held. The students and old grads were in high spirits after the football victory over Bridgewater College, which paved the way for an enjoyable evening in the gymnasium where some danced to the music of the college orchestra, while others played games and talked over old times at S. C. The name of the different buildings was voted upon by those present. A tabulation of the votes gave very appropriate names to the buildings. The main building was named Knutti Hall after a former president of the college. McMurran Hall was the popular name given to the old college building, it being named after the first president. The men's dormitory was named Rumsey Hall in honor of James Rumsey, inventor of the steamboat. who lived in Shepherdstown. So with Miller Hall and Fairfax Athletic Field already named Shepherd's buildings annd grounds possess euphonious, distinctive and distinguished names. -Thomas Lemen,'29. +I. -n . in -.i.-l,...-.- - ,, .

Floyd Dahmer and Earl Coffman debated the affirmative against Salem College and won by a unanimous decision. Roy Wilkins and Cread Sions debated the negative against Shippensburg Teachers College, Ship- pensburg, Pennsylvania, and also against Potomac State School. They won both contests, the former by a unanimous decision. On April 6th, Mr. Coffman and Mr. Dahmer upheld the affirmative against a team from McMurray College, Abilene, Texas, in a no-decision contest. In addition to debating, Mr. Wilkins won second place in the state oratorical contest at Clarksburg on March 9th. qgnilnrnninuz-unix 2 Z 1 YY, f - inf!

The various teams achieved greater glory than any others which have ever represented the school. No longer are the Shepherd teams looked upon as set ups for their opponents but are considered worthy foes. Much of the credit for their success must be given to the skillful coaching of Mrs. Moore and John Newcome, former Davis-Elkins star. The football team of 1927 was generally conceded to be the best that has ever represented the college. Playing the hardest schedule which any Shepherd team has ever faced, it won four games and lost three, scoring a total of ninety points against the opponent's forty-one. Among the schools defeated were Blue Ridge, Bridgewater, and Shenandoah. One of the bright spots of the season was the valiant fight which our team showed against our oldest and most bitter rival, Potomac State. Although the score was 7-0 in favor of Potomac, we won a moral victory. The 1927-28 basketball team was slow in getting started but once the men hit their stride, Shepherd had one of the best quints in the state. Among their victims were such formidable outfits as Fairmont, Broaddus, Blue Ridge, Gallaudet, Bridgewater, and Frostburg. The high spot of the season was the game with the great Davis and Elkins team which has held the state championship for years and which is regarded as one of the best teams in the country. In this game, Shepherd rose to the heights and led her opponents until the last ten seconds of play when the giant Poscover sank one from the center of the floor and won the game for Davis and Elkins, 43-42. Although the baseball team of 1927 did not win a majority of its games it made a very creditable showing. The prospects for this year are greater than at any time within the past five years. Most of last year's letter men are with the team. These along with an abundance of new material should make one of the best teams in the history of the school. The girls' basketball sextette did not have its most successful season during 1927-1928, though the girls gave a good account of themselves. Their best game was the one in which they triumphed over their old and worthy foe, Shenandoah College. This game was played at Dayton and it was in doubt until the final whistle. The girls' hockey team was one of the best ever developed in the school. Not a single defeat was registered against it all year, nor did any team succeed in scoring on the Shepherd girls. During the past several years, great strides have been made in the development of athletics at Shepherd College. Her teams now rank high nw..-un uniunr-:Allan un' uuinn.. nnfuu--nn :mfr limi inn nu nn--nu-1nu,unYYun--unxunz-nllnofi 1.2. ..s..:,.2.. 1 Z - -.-. s. C. .22 2 2 Z 2.2 ... Page sixty-eight among those of the various schools of the state. The success of the teams during the season 1927-1928 is a tribute to the earnest work and diligent efforts of those interested in athletics at the school. We expect to see the gold and blue of old Shepherd attain still greater fame in the seasons to come, because she has the proper spirit of co-operation and sportsman- ship which are so essential to success. -Randall Coffman, '29 BASEBALL ORGANIZATION Allison Rider, Captain Willard Haldeman, Captain-elect Taxter Welshans, Manager J.

C. 272242 .i.2h22 222222222 722 Page seventy-nzne C q h STORIES OF OLD SHEPHERDSTOWN Shepherdstown is the oldest town in West Virginia. The first settlers came across the Potomac river at this place probably about 1727 to 1730, and located here for reasons quite satisfactory to those who sought a new country. One of the first necessities of a new town was plenty of water-springs to serve domestic needs and supply the cattle, and, most important of all, streams with sufficient fall to turn the grist mills and the water wheels of the early industries. The ideal conditions so far as water was concerned were found here. There are to this day within a radius of two miles no less than sixty springs of limestone water Welling from the rocks that under- lie this section. The Potomac flow- ing full and free had many fish O. for a change of diet. Best of all, there was a strong stream of water, heading in big springs a ,..,. t,. A mile or two from the river, which J X , in this mile or two has a fall of per- - haps 150 feet or more. What could be more beneficial than such a stream to turn the wheels of what were in truth infant industries. On this stream, therefore, were located three or four grist mills, four or five tanyards, a couple of saw mills, and other industries that needed power before the days of steam. It is no wonder that these earlier folks decided to make their homes in this salubrious p ace. Shepherdstown, in its history of some two hundred years, has experi- enced every phase of human emotion-tragedy, comedy, melodrama-in private life and in public affairs, in church and state, in politics and reli- gion and business. It is not strange, with many superstitions brought from the old world, that queer stories and actions should have formed a part of town life. The Dutch Hex was firmly believed in, and signs were regarded strictly. One often wonders just what sort of powers those old folks had, if any, to gain for them the reputation that they enjoyed. There was Martin Stipp, well remembered by the writer, who had the power to blow fire from burns and ease the suffering that even physicians could hardly allay. Once upon a time a little boy who had gotten ready for bed was playing about the room when he fell against a very hot stove and his bare leg was most painfully burned, the print of the stove's orna- mentation showing plainly where the child was branded by the hot iron. A physician was hastily called, but the heart-rending cries of the little s-Yun nnfmu. nn-n 1 Y Y.

An old woman of the neighborhood suggested that Martin Stipp be sent for. As a last resort this was done. Martin Stipp came, looked at the burn, mumbled a few unintelligible words, blew briskly upon the flam- ing spot, and lo, the child went off to sleep and never afterward complained, though for a long time he carried the print of the stove. Other old folks about town could also blow fire from burns and use with more or less. success certain signs and manipulations that would ap- parently alleviate many ills. Then there were the water smellers-the men who would locate streams of underground water when it was desired to dig a well. Did they ever fail? Well, we did not hear of it if they did. These men would take a twig of a peach tree or hazel bush and grasp it in their hands in a certain way, then walk slowly around and around the location where the well was to be located. If the twig turned in their hands, it was sure to indicate water. If it did not turn, few persons had the courage to dig a well-it was pretty sure to be dry. Jacob Folk, living west of town, want- ed a well at a new house that had been built on a pleasing site. He called in the water smellers, but none of them could find water. He dug a cis- tern. Fifty or sixty years afterward when a new owner took possession of the farm he laughed at the report that there was no water there. He called in an artesian well borer and told him to dig a well just where it was most convenient. The well digger drove his drill down a hundred feet, but no water. A hundred and fifty feet, no water. As a matter of fact he had to go down nearly two hundred feet before he got a stream, and even at that it is not sufficient for the needs of the place. Did the water smel' lers know their business? Shepherdstown has been a good circus town for more than a hun- dred years. Just about a hundred years ago a circus came to town and erected its tents on the lots adjacent to the Great Western Hotel, and where the home of the writer is now located a great crowd assembled to see the circus and the appurtenances thereof. As the performance was proceeding a sudden thunder storm came up, and the wind that accompan- ied it was so violent that the tent began to sway, and before the frightened people could all make their escape it collapsed. At this there was great confusion, and when some foolish person shouted that the lion was loose. pandemonium reigned. It was a fearful scene for a few moments-what with the screams of the people, the clash of thunder and the howling of the animals. Order was finally restored, and fortunately no one had been seriously injured. A little girl from Philadelphia, who was visiting relatives here, got separated from her protector and was found later in a nearby doorway crying softly because her pretty red kid shoes had gotten muddy. Many years ago-more than a hundred now-two young gentlemen of Winchester got into a quarrel over a game of cards, and officious friends made it so much worse that finally a challenge to fight a duel was offered and accepted. The two young men, who were of noted family connections, drove to Shepherdstown and on the opposite side of the river fought their duel early one morning. One of them was shot and mortally wounded. He was brought across the river to Shepherdstown and taken to the famous old Entler Hotel. Physicians summoned to give gt :Funi--ninaen.-ginni-'nl'-n-L-nun uif:mn1::::: S.

His mother was sent for, and she rode from Winchester to Shepherdstown on horseback, but her son was dead before she arrived. This was one of the events that helped bring about soon afterward both the law and sentiment against dueling. The young man died in a room in the hotel that is now known as Rumsey Hall, the men's dormitory of Shepherd College. The writer knows just what room it is, but will not tell. The occupant might get nervous at night, for there used to be a legend that the unhappy young man's ghost walked about the room and wrung his hands as if imploring the mother to hurry, hurry. The early settlers of Shepherdstown had scares from time to time in regard to the Indians, but fortunately there were no serious tragedies from this cause that the writer has heard of. The Pack Horse Ford across the Potomac river a mile below town was a famous crossing place for Indians, being on the long trail between the North and South, and there was once a bloody flght, tradition says, between the Delawares and Catawbas at the ford, though no white pe1'sons were involved. Traveling bands of Indians passed through here occasionally, but gave very little trouble, though women and children were always fearful when they were about. It is said that the last band of Indians passed by here about 125 years ago. They camped at Elmwood, the Lucas place, a couple of miles south of town, and remained there over night. The women of the house were nervous, but the Indians were quiet and friendly. They begged some bread and meat in the evening, and next day resumed their journey west- ward. Some time before this a party of Indians stole a boy named VanMetre near the Opequon creek and carried him westward beyond the Ohio river. He grew up with the Indians, and when he was a grown man came back to his people here, though later he returned to the Ohio country. There used to be individuals in this community of whom it was said that they had Injun blood in their veins. Ordinary folks were always a bit afraid of them and children stepped lightly in their presence. Shepherdstown was on the high road between Baltimore and the Southwest, and wagoners in the early days, hauling goods from Baltimore to points as far away as Tennessee, would stop here over night. There were numerous saloons and inns and ordinaries here, and when the rough-and-ready wagoners began to feel their liquor, quarrels and fights were bound to ensue. Gambling and horsd racing and cock fighting and other sports were the order of the day, and on one occasion a dealer from the Southwest who lost at cards all the money he had received for a drove of cattle sold in Baltimore committed suicide by shooting himself through the head. Teamsters took pride in their four-horse teams, and kept their animals in the best of order. Most of them used bell teams- that is, standards of bells attached to the harness of the horses that rang merrily by day, and by night gave notice of their approach. Roads were not very good in those days, and often the wagons would get stuck in the mud holes. If the driver was unable to get out by thel efforts of his own team. he would have to wait until another team came along, when he was forced to humiliate himself and ask for help. If the other fellow had to use his team to help the unlucky one, he had the privilege of taking his bells as a prize. This was regarded as a most disgraceful evidence of a poor team and the unlucky driver or owner was subjected +.1.u1..n1'----.-.1--rf. ------- rl.-, 1 ---H 7 1 -7 -'W 7 7 -- -ill Ill- MII ofsufnu ufrlnn-lmlmli 1 i T .Y frm-v Sf ci' I ll - - 7 7 ' 7 1 f 'II' 'WP Page eighty-two Q B Q H f C '7 U - 1 ! to much unpleasant banter and would have to treat all and sundry at the inn where he stopped for the night. Shepherdstown was not without its romances in the early days. It was noted for the beauty of its women, and visitors from the larger cities carried away many a pretty girl, much to the disappointment of our own young men who could not compete with the gallantry of city beaux. The social lines were rather closely observed, and among the young ladies there was then, as now, a strong desire to better themselves when they were ready to establish homes of their own. It always seemed as if a distress- ingly large number of our most popular young folks sooner or later went to the cities to avail themselves of what seemed to be greater opportun- ities and advantages. This tendency has continuously robbed the country towns of a large proportion of its desirable population, for few of them who have gone away have found the path back to the old home except as casual visitors. What a wonderful place Shepherdstown would have been---would be now-if these interesting and cultured and lovable natives could have had opportunities and inducements sufficient to have kept them at home. -H.

When the village fathers believed themselves to have found the land of their dreams they made laws for their government, even providing specifications for home building. This cabin, representing the specified type of first Shepherdstown home, was erected and occupied by the village cobbler, a man well-beloved by his neighbors. All day long and often far into the night, the tap, tap, tap, of his hammer could be heard. It was music in the ears of many a swain going from his wooing late at night. But one morning the village was startled to hear that the Cobbler had been found dead some distance from the cabin. It was generally known that the old man had accumulated money. None was ever found. A foul deed, said the neighbors. Soon after the funeral of the cobbler, a family moved into the cabin. They brought their cat. One night while sitting around the fire they heard the tap, tap, tap of the shoemaker's hammer! Up the stairs, lickety-split went the cat. Again the next night came the weird sounds. Down from above-stairs came the cat-and disappeared through the door, never to return! The family moved out. Years later, other families lived in the house -those unafraid. And, credent ones say, even to this day, the tap, tap, tap, of the cobbler's hammer may be heard at the witching hour of the night.

I' ' I' W'-T 'O' 'www' Pig -'TF'-l 'l PACKHORSE FORD About a mile east of Shepherdstown is the famous Packhorse Ford, the only crossing of the Potomac for many miles east and west of it. It has been called the bridge of the great Indian highway running north and south. There the great Shawnee tribe that once held undisputed possession in the country along the Shenandoah southward from the Potomac, doubt- less crossed many a time. There the Delawares going south and the Ca- tawbas going north crossed and recrossed, and hostile tribes waged battles. There the early settlers crossed to take possession of the lovely and fertile valley and found new homes. About 1717 Sir William Keith, Governor of Pennsylvania, met with several Indian chiefs of the northern tribes to make a general treaty. These Indians would not talk peace until they had told of the wrongs that some white people and Indians of the South had committed. Later Governor Keith went to Virginia where he urged Governor Spottswood to help bring about peace between the Delawares of the North and the Catawbas of the South. The two governors finally came to an agreement that they would use the Cohongoroota river as the dividing line between the two sections of the hunting ground, and that neither tribe would trespass on the other's territory. Long before the coming of the white man, the ford had been known to the Indians and it formed a part of their great highway, connecting the North and South. The valley was so fertile and full of game and fish that it was a favorite hunting ground for warriors of both sections of the country, and hunting parties were constantly passing through it. Long ago the Delawares started on a hunting trip, and being very successful, they moved farther and farther south until they came to the country of the Catawbas. As they were fat with good things, they became insolent and did unspeakable things to the Catawbas. This roused the latter to such rage and resentment that they armed themselves and as the Delawares started northward again they were followed by their enemies. At the ford the retreating braves made camp, and here the Catawbas came up and gave battle. The Delawares met their pursuers joyfully. The valley rang with shouting and the horrid cries of Indian warfare. One by one the Delawares were struck down. The triumphant Catawbas annihilated their enemies who had stirred them by their evil deeds, all but one. One man of the Delawares escaped, while the scalps of the warriors of his tribe were bleeding in the hands of his foes. After the battle, when the warriors displayed their dangling scalps, one man alone had no trophy to show, for this he felt disgraced. He started in pursuit of the one enemy who had escaped. For a long journey of one g:i::?lulllfnuiuujnnr nnlnr.rinL rm' nu S. C. 'nu un nu i: ,nzlz Page eighty-fire I in :I ' 1 i ,,, - j n 7 Ui - 1 ., , 1 ,lt hundred miles he tracked the unfortunate Delaware to the banks of the Susquehanna, where he tomahawked his enemy, took his scalp, and re- turned triumphant to his tribe. This was one of the most famous fights between the tribes, and bones, skulls, and arrow heads are frequently plowed up today on the scene of the coniiict. A few years ago a freshet on the Potomac wore a part of the bank away, disclosing a piece of Indian paint-pot with some of the war paint yet clinging to it, a grim reminder of the past. There is another story of Indian love quite as terrible as Indian hate. which took place at this time a few miles from Packhorse Ford, in what is now Washington County, Maryland. A young French girl named Rosaline lived with her parents and little brother on the Red Hill. No doubt she was slender and dark eyed, and had the grace of her countrywomen. That she was attractive enough to inspire a savage passion we learn from her story. This French settler and his family lived in a log house, leading a life of simplicity. When the battle between the Catawbas and Delawares was fought, hearing the dreadful sounds of savage warfare, the settler and his family Hed to South Mountain where they took refuge in a hiding place. Here they stayed for days, afraid to venture back to the house for fear the Indians might still be in the neighborhood. For days they lay hidden, exposed to the weather and suffering for want of food. When the family returned the wife and little boy sickened with fever and died. Rosaline, stricken with grief and suffering from exposure, went to live with neigh bors where she drank water from a spring near by. In a short time she was wonderfully better. The recovery was attributed to the waters of the spring which was afterwards known as the Belinda Springs. Strong and well again, Rosaline went back to her father on Red Hill. Soon a Catawba chief saw her, and going to her father he demanded her in marriage. One can imagine the daily fear that Rosaline endured. One right when she and her father sat at the open cabin door a shot rang out and her father fell dead. The Catawba chief appeared by her side and , bore her away to his tribe. No more was ever heard of her. At another time a Delaware brave f went South where he stole a Catawba girl. , On his way back north he missed the trail Q . - 1 f 1. .. leading to the ford and came out on a cliff 'r .. 4.

It was well known that Governor Spottswood desired emigrants to settle the valley along the river to protect the rest of Virginia. Settlers began to appear early in the eighteenth century. They came from old settlements in Maryland and Pennsylvania. Many settlers came on pack- horses bringing goods of every description. They all crossed at this same ford and soon the name of Packhorse Ford designated this crossing place. The name of the river was also changed from the Cohongoroota to the Potomac, the new name meaning the River of traders. The valley of Virginia was a land of plenty in those days. The abundant streams swarmed with fishy there were buffalo, deer and elk on the hills. The hardy pioneers who built their rude cabins in the unsettled country were at no loss for provisions. That there was a small settlement at the Packhorse Ford and that it was known by the name of Packhorse Settlement, there can be no doubt. The earliest name given to the village was Swearingen's Ferry. About 1760 the people spoke of the community as Mecklenburg. Later the name was changed to Shepherdstown. The first soldiers to organize in this part of the country at the time of the Revolutionary War organized at Shepherdstown, crossed the river at Packhorse Ford and joined Washington at Boston. The ford also played a part in the Civil War, for it was at Packhorse Ford where General Lee and his army crossed to fight the battle of Antietam. How much more then can' the observer appreciate the view of this ford, after knowing a few of the most important events that happened there. -Grace Walker, '29.

That he loved his fellow-men and wished to be of and with them is attested by many recorded facts of authentic history. The records of the great Masonic fraternity are Hlled with indisputable evidence that the future leader, patriot and president bound himself by strong social and fraternal ties to groups of the leading men of his time. A large percentage of his generals were undoubtedly selected by him from among the membership of his fraternal associates. If tradition is correct, two years after the father of his country reached his majority, 1754, he presided as Master over the first lodge of Free Masons ever assembled west of the Blue Ridge mountains. The place of meeting, one of the caverns of limestone formation, for which the beautiful Shenandoah Valley is famous, now nearly two centuries later, bid fair to be a shrine to the memory of the first great patriot, unexcelled by any save Mount Vernon. qinulnufuuz- - un nnLnniull 1 1 Y -1 vanvl l1'l '1' 1 1 ' 4 - ' 2 - 4 ' i 'l 'P 4qn4nln. uln :f uuiuu-f-nlfwnlf nu? 1 -- - ilruil S' C' 1--'H' 1111 -I 1111T1 'H'- l1 'i' Page ezghty-ezght C - -4 - j n 'Vita 1 in Masonic tradition informs us that from time immemorial the fratere nity held its meetings on high hills and in low vales in order to observe the approach of eavesdroppers. Hence it was that in 1754, in his twenty- second year, the youthful Washington conducted those in the vicinity of the settlement which afterward became his brother Charles Town who were already members of the ancient craft, together with those who were to be made members in a body to the Cave, a short distance south of what is now the county seat of old Jefferson, for the purpose of opening the first lodge of the order west of the Blue Ridge mountains. The brethren must have decided upon this cave as a permanent place of meeting, for twenty years later, a Mr. Davis conveyed by deed filed by title in the Clerk's Office of Berkeley County, one and one-eighth acres of land on which the cave is located, to Samuel Washington and others as trustees. But there were no electric-lighting or ventilating systems in those days, and, besides, the disagreements with the mother country were consuming all the time and thought of the patriots and so the historic place was permitted to lapse into obscurity. Ninety years later on Thursday, May 16, 1844, the Masons of Tri- luminar Lodge No. 117 of Middleway-the famous ghost-haunted hamlet of Wizard Clip, in Jeierson County, Virginia, resolved to celebrate the installation of the first lodge west of the Blue Ridge barrier. and accord- ingly sent out invitations to members of the fraternity in Jefferson, Berkeley and Clarke counties in Virginia, Frederick and Washington counties in Maryland and even as far west as Cumberland and as far south as Staunton. There was a great outpouring of the membership. The secretary's minutes of the meeting, still in possession of the lodge and also of Mt. Nebo Lodge of Shepherdstown, to which as a courtesy a copy of the minutes was sent by John F. Smith, Secretary Pro Tem., list one hundred and twenty-five members with the statement and many other brethren. In the secretary's neat clear, concise and artistic hand the minutes proceed: The Fraternity assembled in the large room over the Court House Hall fCharles Townj at 10 o'clock, A. M. The procession moved thence under escort of the Charles Town Artillery, commanded by Capt. Rowan, and the Jefferson Guards by Capt. J. G. Packett, directed by Bros. Capt. G. W. Sappington and W. G.

Seever and Morgan Johnson as assistant marshals, to the Presbyterian Church where the ceremonies were opened by prayer by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Dutton. An eloquent and appropriate address suitable to the interesting occasion which had called the fraternity together was then delivered Coccupying an hour and twenty minutesj by Bro. Charles J.

Among other interesting Masonic relics, the orator held up to the audience an apron of black silk velvet, presented more than a half' century since to Gen. Washington by the Grand Lodge of France, through the person of his early friend, brother and companion in arms, Bro. Gilbert M. D. Lafayette. This Masonic relic is the property of Mt. Nebo Lodge, given it by Mildred, daughter of Gen. Washing'ton's brother Charles. The craft was called from labor to refreshment and proceeded in a body to the hotel of Capt. Jos. F. Abell, where the brethren in a body partook of a sumptuous dinner served up in the usual style of that excellent caterer. Soon after dinner the craft again assembled at the Court House and resumed their labor, formed procession again and proceeded on horseback to the cave. About 150 of the craft, two com- panies of volunteers, a band of music and a large number of citizens entered this subterraneous excavation rendered interesting to every good and zealous Mason as being the place in which their valuable tenets were first imparted in Western Virginia and one-half an hour and more were spent in exploring the different apartments of this Wonderful natural curiosity. The procession returned to town at 5 o'clock all much pleased with their first Masonic visit to this consecrated spot. The craft was again called from labor to refreshment Cat least the brethren of Triluminar Lodgel to meet in their hall at Middleway, on Saturday evening the 18th. inst, which was accordingly so done and M. M. Lodge closed in due form. On that memorable day in 1884, it is recorded that Bro. L. L. Stevenson. P. G. M., presided over the several Lodges collectively, as W. M. Those who occupied the officers' stations for Triluminar, the hostess Lodge, were Lewis Fry, W. M., Vance Bell, S. W., J. R. A. Redman, J. W., S. L. Minghini, Treas., J. W. Grantham, Secy., Joe E. Bell, S. D., .l. H. Campbell, J. D., John Fearis. Tyler. It is interesting to note that of all the above officers, only two, S. L. Minghini, the Treasurer, and Joe E. Bell, S. D., were regular officers. The others are listed as p. t.-pro tem. Clearly Triluminar Lodge was that day putting her best foot fore- most-with her best qualified members in the chairs. n-nu-nu1uu1uu 1-i1i111 un--I 'ful' ' - 1 f f f 1 1 lufnl' :,,1,,,,,,,,,.-,,,,,,1,,, ,,,,1 V.. ...,,,.,, S.

French, Esq., then Grand Master of the District of Columbia, during the ceremony, informed the assembled multitude. says the Intelligencer, that he held in his hand the identical gavel used by the immortal Washington, in conducting the Masonic ceremonies upon the laying of the cornerstone of the Capitol of these United States. He also stated that he had the honor then to wear an apron worn upon the same occasion by the Father of his Country, which was presented to Washington by the Grand Lodge of France through that great and good patriot and Mason, General Lafayette. Hundreds of tourists, pass- ing over the main highway from Maryland southward, stop in Shepherdse town to admire and pay homage to this beautiful apron with its artistic hand-embroidery. ln Mt. Nebo Lodge, there also a facsimile from the records of Fredericksburg Lodge, in a frame on the wall beside the historic apron. From this record, visitors may read: 4th Nov., 1752, Entered as ap- prentices,-Charles Lewis.

What significance, remarks the visitor, there may be for later posterity in that name! The above tradition has brought many criticisms from various histor- ians and would-be historians all of which are most interesting. One of these is that Washington could not have held his meeting at the Cave in 1754 because in that year he spent all his time visiting the French forts on the Ohio. Now these are the facts of Washington's 1754 activities: He received his commission to carry the message to the French on October 31, 1753, Jacob Vanbraam and Christopher Gist accompanied him on his mission. On December 11 he reached the French fort, he delivered Governor Dinwiddie's message and returned immediately, reach- ing Williamsburg January 15, 1754. On May 28, 1754, the lirst blood was shed at Great Meadows, when Washington's men were compelled to fire upon the French near Fort Necessity. The famous battle of Fort Necessity was fought July 3, 1754 after which Washington returned immediately to Williamsburg and made his report. He then went at once to Alexandria, where he was until October, when he resigned from Governor Dinwiddie's army, because of the rearrangement of the rank of the officers from the various colonies. He was not connected with the army again until Braddock arrived Febru- ary 20, 1755, when Washington joined him. Hence, it is assumed that Washington did, indeed, have ample time to hold his lodge session at the Cave near Charles Town in 1754-whether he did or not. There is undoubtedly a mystery yet unexplained connected with the several aprons. The one at Alexandria, which has received the approba- tion of historians, has a very striking resemblance to the one at Shep- herdstown. There is or was an apron several years ago in Independence Hall, Philadelphia, which was labeled as the apron presented to Washing- ton and made by Lafayette's daughters. This apron also bore a striking similarity to the other. The mystery, therefore, still remains where did these aprons all have their origin? After all is said, the apron in the lodge room at Shepherdstown is a most interesting bit of handiwork and will continue to receive the admiration of visitors. -W. H. S. White.

It has been called Middleway because it is situated at equal distances from Martinsburg, Winchester, and Harpers Ferry, Smithfield, because a prominent Smith family lived there for several years, and Clip because of a legend which I shall try to tell to you. Adam Livingstone, a Pennsylvanian, came to the vicinity of Smith- field about 1790. He bought seventy acres of land, a home, and several lots, and he and his wife settled down contentedly in their new environ- ment. Livingstone had a mild and genial disposition which was certainly unlike that of his wife. If each had had the disposition of the other, the family affairs would probably have turned out better than they did. It has been said that the family had many misfortunes before coming to Smithfield but the change in surroundings seems to have put an end to them. The couple delighted in contrasting their former failures with their present success. At that time railroads and steamboats were not in use and goods were conveyed by horsepower. The main road running from Baltimore and Alexandria to Southwest Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee, passed through Smithfield. One evening a traveler stopped at the Livingstone home and asked for lodging for the night. Mr. Livingstone cheerfully consented to take the stranger in. After the evening meal was over, the men sat by the fireside and talked while Mrs. Livingstone worked and listened. About ten o'cIock all retired. Mr. Livingstone was awakened about midnight by queer noises which came from the stranger's room. He arose and went to see what was wrong. In answer to his query the stranger replied that he was very ill and was afraid that he might die. He said that he was a Catholic. In his past days, when he was in good health, he had sinned, and now he felt the need of a priest. Mr. Livingstone said that he was a Prot- testant and did not know where he could find a priest, but he would go out to see some Catholic families-the McSherrys and Minghinis, who lived in the vicinity. His wife overheard the conversation and informed him that he would be foolish to go out at that time of night to find a priest for a man whom he did not know, and declared even if he were successful in his quest no Catholic priest would ever darken her door. As usual he obeyed his wife and returned to his bed, leaving the sick man alone. When daylight came the stranger was dead. Nothing was known of him except that het was a Catholic. He had not revealed his name, his business, whence he had come, or his destina- tion. The responsibility of burial rested upon Mr. Livingstone. A man, whose name was Jacob Foster, was hired aft wakesman for the first night. He lighted a candle and carried it into the room where the body lay, and when he set it down it flickered and went out.

On the second night after the death of the stranger, Mr. Livingstone and his family were sitting before the living-room fireg when, to their great amazement, the coals leaped from the fireplace and frolicked around the room, while the terrified wife and husband ran after them to prevent their burning the furnishings. To add to the terror of the unhappy couple, horses seemed to be galloping around and around the house though nothing could be seen. The day after the stranger was buried, Mr. Livingstone was walking down the road when he met a Wagoner who inquired in a very angry voice why he was stopping travel by tying ropes across the road. Mr. Livingstone could see nothing which might cause the Wagoner to stop. so he concluded that the man was intoxicated. A second Wagoner approached, stopped beside the first, and asked bewildered Livingstone the same questions as did the first, but in more forceful language. When he made no effort to remove the obstacle the angry wagoners drew from their pockets their knives and slashed at the rope, but they came in contact with nothing. It was then the wagoners who were bewildered. He told them to drive on regardless of the rope. They did this and their teams did not meet the least resistance. Every Wagoner Who passed that Way was stopped by the rope, but at his command they passed on as did the first. These strange happenings were too much for the courage of most of the people of the vicinity. Even Mrs. Livingstone's courage failed her. There was. however, a German tailor in the community who contemptu- ously regarded the people as superstitious. He decided to visit the house and prove to them that there were no ghosts. Having made a suit for a man who lived beyond the Livingstone home he took it with him thinking that he would deliver it after making his visit. He entered the house and inspected it thoroughly, but nothing unusual happened. Very much pleased with himself, he went on to the home of his customer where he boasted of his courage and ridiculed other people's ignorance. Very proudly he opened the package to show the man his suit, but to his astonishment he found it full of crescent-shaped holes. Many people from far and near did not believe the stories of weird happenings in the Livingstone home. A party of skeptical young people gathered at the house one night to have a rolicking time. The young men wished to show the world and their sweethearts that they were afraid of nothing. One rough, blustering fellow courting a girl who lived in the neighborhood wished to show her how bold and daring he was. Everyone was dancing. The Winchester lad heard something clipping and felt some- thing flap against his legs. He investigated and found to his chagrin that his trousers had been clipped from the waist band. It was necessary for him to sit down during the remainder of the festivities. As soon as his friends found out his plight they made his staying so disagreeable that he was forced to back out through the door while the ladies turned their eyes in another direction. +n1nn- ,nn-fm-u --1---- -1-I 11-11-1 - ' ' 1 1 - 1 1 -flw -I+ -In -nn? -vurinnf nn.fnm1 Y, . -- 7 'f 1 n-a S' Cl l1vvII1 f 1 1 f 1 01111141 Page mnety-jour H -x-X - j uu ..,--J The strange occurrences did not stop. In the days that followed money disappeared, the crockery tumbled, the furniture danced at midnight. Livingstone's sheets, boots, clothing and saddles were clipped in crescent shapes, the heads dropped from the fowls, his cattle died. and his barn burned. . One night Livingstone had a dream. He was climbing a mountain clutching at roots and bushes to keep from falling. When he reached the summit there stood before him a man dressed in long black robes. He heard a voice say, This is the man who can relieve you. The next morning he Went to Winchester to seek the assistance of Alexander Belmaine, rector of the parish, as he Wore robes . He found that the Episcopalian clergyman did not come up to the description of the person he had seen in his dream, so he returned. Someone told him that there was in Shepherdstown a Catholic priest. Father Dennis Cahill, whom they thought could relieve him. On Sunday morning he went to the church, and as the priest appeared in robes, Liv- ingstone fell on his knees, with tears streaming down his cheeks, and cried aloud, This is the very man I saw in my dreamg he is the one the voice told me would relieve me of my troubles. He begged Father Cahill to help him. The old priest tried to lay the ghosts by sprinkling holy water in the house, but the mysterious clipping continued. He then celebrated mass in the house, and the ghosts have never since caused any trouble. Livingstone was so grateful for what Father Cahill had done for him that he conveyed to trustees, for the benefit of the Catholic church, thirty- four acres of land. Recently the Catholics erected a chapel on Priest's Field, as the property has long been called. Clip Creek flows softly by at the foot of the hill below the chapel. Here and there wild poppies have sprung up, perhaps as an assurance that evil spirits sleep, that ghosts no longer walk. -Elsie Smith, '29. 1 k , l f' f 7 -I ::s::i:g. L 1 Q r T so i as 1: S.

Near the Miller plantation lived John Engle, who either owned or hired a colored girl whom Jesse desired to visit, but Mr. Engle knowing of his bad reputation forbade him to come to his house. Though deeply of- fended, Jesse hid his real feelings toward Mr. Engle, and one day appear- ed with a message from his master. While he was waiting for an answer, Margaret, the little five-year-old daughter of Mr. Engle passed close to Jesse who apparently through a desire to ingratiate himself with her, patted her on the head, but as soon as he touched her, she screamed and showed the utmost horror of him. From that day the child's health began to fail, she lost her appetite and was unable to sleep. Within a month she was reduced to a mere skeleton, and her life was despaired of. Various remedies were employed to restore her to health but to no avail. At last when the little girl seemed in almost a dying condition, someone remem- bered that across the Potomac, in Maple Swamp, a place inhabited by half- breeds descended from the Indians, lived a certain Mrs. Mullin, Whose fame for occult knowledge was wide-spread. To her as a last resort the parents of the child appealed. The benevolent old woman responded at once, and crossed the Potomac on her mission of charity. She took the child on her knee, without the least repugnance on the part of the little girl. What mystic words or rites she used, tradition does not say, but she took from her pocket a pair of scissors and with deliberation clipped the finger nails from the hand of the child-from all but one finger, and herein lies the wonder, for the little girl at once began to improve. She lived to an advanced age. She had use of her hands with the exception of one finger, the nail of which Mrs. Mullin failed to clip. That finger was always crooked. It was never straight after the day that Mrs. Mullin failed to treat it as she treated its fellows.

The construction of the railroad many years ago was the first interruption to the dreams of the magic, and then the Civil War, with its very practi- cal ideas and, above them all, perhaps, the subsequent introduction of free schools have completed the delivery of worthy inhabitants from the very galling yoke of many professors of the black art, African and Caucasian. who profited in money and reputation by the fears they excited and the fees they received for cures or immunity. In justice, it must be stated that the whites, mostly of German origin, were generally of a benevolent character and that the practice of their arts was always directed to counteract the malevolence of the negroes who seldom devoted their mystic knowledge to any good purpose, especially where any member of their own race was concerned. They always appeared to have an instinctive dread of the superior race and were shy of practicing on the white men. unless under very strong temptation. The gypsies alone keep alive the old order of things, appearing to have nobody to punish and everyone to reward with a rich wife or a gallant husband for the trifle of crossing the sibyl's palm with a piece of silver. Indeed, they are not charged with molesting the person or property of anyone. On the contrary, they are ever invoking the blessings of Venus, on the conditions above mentioned. Time has in no way changed their habits. Two generations ago, great was the fame of the professors-white and black-but now it is difficult to get any one of either color, unless some octogenarian, to relate what used to occur in the olden times. Every- one appears to be afraid of the imputation of superstition. In this way many interesting and even poetic legends are likely to be lost. Of the white seers the most renowned was the miller, John Peacher, a Pennsylvania Dutchman. He was a man of excellent reputation and the only people who had any complaint to make of him were the evil doers, especially the thieves. It was useless for a thief to steal anything from John Peacher, for it had to be returned, and in broad daylight, by the cul- prit himself. Peacherls friends, too, if they reported to him any loss were merely told to wait a little for the stolen article. So, neither Peacher nor his friends ever had occasion to complain to a law officer of any loss. In consequence, it was not an unusual sight to see seated on a fence near Peacher's mill, or the house of one of the miller's neighbors, a man, nearly always a negro, with a bundle of something tied up to suit the contents. There the visitor sat until late evening, if not asked to get off the fence and tell his business. Even then, it was with extreme difficulty that he +- -'- - 1 - - Tl :: I - ----Z.

The man was sure to be a thief, and the bundle always contained the stolen article, which was laid at the feet of the lawful owner, the proprietor of the place, Peacher, or some one of his friends who had reported the robbery. On one occasion a wagoner on his way to Georgetown abstracted from a wagon that belonged to Peacher some part of the gearing, with which he proceeded to Georgetown, fifty- seven miles distant. The miller soon discovered the loss but, as usual, he lay low and waited for the certain issue. In a few days a man appeared early in the morning afoot, and carrying an apparently heavy load. When he reached Peacher's gate. he climbed one of the posts and rested his load on the fence nearby. There the culprit sat without a word until the ben- evolent Peacher thought that the penitent might be hungry and sufficient- ly humbled. He then invited the stranger to get off and come into the house to get something to eat, but the hapless thief was glued, as it were. to the seat and not till Peacher chose to break the spell could the crest- fallen victim get off his perch. He then confessed his guilt. He said that his conscience did not trouble him a bit till he reached Georgetown with his plunder, when some impulse forced him to leave his team in the city and walk back carrying the stolen articles, instead of waiting for his regu- lar return trip to make restitution. After his meal he commenced his journey back, afoot, to the city for his team and in some time after rode past Peacher's place on his homeward trip, but did not stop. How Peacher worked his charms he never revealed, except that he said he had a wheel by the turning of which, as the case demanded, he effected his wonderful ex- ploits at thief-catching. The wheel he never exhibited. For many years after his death there was a common phrase in the neighborhood, I'll in- troduce you to Peacher's wheel, whenever anyone was suspected of knav- ish practices-especially a child or a superstititious person.

The night wind swept across the countryside lashing the trees along its path. One tree however stood unbending in the storm. It stood alone along a country road, its head towering high above the soil that gave iti birth. Centuries it had stood thus, a gigantic landmark. King of trees it was-a lovely oak that stood apart in regal majesty. A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed Against the earth's sweet flowing breast. A tree that looks to God all day And lifts her leafy arms to pray. A tree that may in summer bear A nest of robins in her hair Upon whose bosom snow has lain Who intimately lives with rain. The storm swept on in its course. Miles away it descended upon a little settlement nestled among the hills. Here the rain beat on the roof of a low building that stood close to the road. This was the headquarters of the Union forces at Harpers Ferry during the great Civil war. Inside, a dim light shone. A tallow candle cast its glow upon the faces of the men gathered there. One man in the center of the group was preparing to go out into the storm. As he gave the last shrug of his shoulders under his smart blue cape one of the men, a commanding officer, handed him a box. It was the money with which the soldiers stationed at Martinsburg were to be paid off that night and the one to take it was the Union paymaster. Holding the box securely under his arm the man walked to the door, where a horse stood ready for the trip. As he did so the rain ceased sud- denly, but thunder crashed near at hand as if in ominous warning of what was to come. The frightened horse reared at the sound but the man in blue mounted, waved goodbye and was gone. In a few minutes all was quiet again, and the storm moved on into the distance. Hours passed. Near dawn there was a great clattering of hoofs on the road. Another moment and a horse slid to a halt before the door of the officers' quarters. A coatless figure dismounted and rushed into the building. Immediately there was a great uproar within. Surrounded by the same group of men the Union paymaster was excitedly telling of a Confederate ambuscade into which he had fallen. They had taken the money and had left him for dead along the road. He exhibited his torn and muddy clothing as proof. As the men looked at him they seemed to notice a lack of sincerity. There was in his face a defiance-in his eyes a betraying shiftiness. The men said nothing but a signal flashed among them as they looked at each other. The paymaster's story did not ring true and was not believed. Suspicion was stamped on every countenance. Morning came and with it an order for the paymaster to be court- martialed. A few days later the trial was held. In this the man made even less convincing efforts to substantiate his account of the robbery, but his story did not hold together, and he was sentenced to the federal prison for a term of years. Disgrace clouded his name and the incident was soon forgotten. The crisis of the great war came and passed. Once more peace de- scended upon the conflict-torn nation. The soil once red with the blood IFE. 22722 IIQILIII ZIIZTIII 25221221 S. C.

One day strange news spread through the valley. Mystery filled the atmostphere and charged with excitement a little group that stood close to- gether under a large oak tree beside a lonely road. One man was bending over the ground and looking at several small objects he held in his hand. It was money, small coins almost unrecog- nizable under their coating of age. On the ground beside a shallow hole were fragments of an old box. Money had been buried here! Speculations ran riot. Where had it come from? To whom did it belong? The man who held the coins in his hand, after assuring himself that no more were there, straightened up and stared ruefully at the spot. Just to think, he said, how many times I've sat there right over that money, eating my lunch, and never knew it was there! At this point another man drove up and was told of the discovery. As he listened an expression of amazement came to his face. Then he told the others of a stranger who had been seen late the night before at the station at Duffields for Keedysville, Md. Tradition varies herel. This man had hired a horse nearby and had departed, to return later with a box which he took with him on the next train! Events began to shape themselves into a sequence. This man had buried the money and had returned late at night to retrieve the treasure. Then to one of the group came the memory of an incident of the war. The story of the Union paymaster who had been sentenced to prison for the loss of the money intended for the payment of the soldiers during their encampment nearby, Hashed into his mind. This was that money! The news spread like wildfire. Many persons came to view the place under the tree. Great controversy arose! Was the money his? Some contended that since he had hidden it and had paid the price for it with his disgrace, it was his. They said his long term in prison had earned it for him. But the money was tainted, it had been stolen, and so of course it was not his. Yet he had it, sixty-five thousand dollars, and no one knew from whence he had come or where he had gone. Small wonder, then, that it created such a sensation around this community! Gradually the excitement subsided and not until years later was it generally known that this Union paymaster was a major, who, after leav- ing the prison, had gone to Washington to live. His record must have fol- lowed him there because it is said that he was not in general favor there and could attain no social standing. He died just a number of years ago. For years the great tree stood there, along the Charles Town road about one and one-half miles from Shepherdstown. lt was not now the monarch it had once been, but just an old tree, which people always called The Money Tree. One night a storm came, as on one memorable night before, and this time it tore part of the tree away. Age weakened it and at length decay set in. Little by little it went until there was nothing left but a shaft about ten feet high. Then one day a man was burning brush in a field nearby. That night the fire crept up the base of the old Money Tree , it caught and the flames mounted until it was a veritable pillar of fire and smoke there in the darkness. The next morning The Money Tree was just a memory and as such it lives today. -Violet Keller, '29. 'il I I' I 2 I S.

The little home econ- omics cottage was a recent addition to the college buildings, and it was to be a model in every way. The manual training classes were helping to equip it, the home economics classes were busy making draperies and table linens, and to the members of the art classes had been assigned the task of the interior decorating. The others of the class had left over an hour ago to attend a baseball thuse, but Janet had stayed to finish the dining room border. She was not merely working for the few hours of credit which the course offered, she was preparing herself for a life work. She was talented-Miss Morris had said so-and Janet's fondest hope was that some day she would be doing interior decorating on a large scale. Her day-dreaming came abruptly to an end, as one of her feet slipped off the step of the ladder. There was a moment of uncertainty during which the ladder swayed perilously and the girl reached out blindly for something to keep her from falling. When she regained her balance, she was still standing on the ladder, but to her dismay she saw a great smear of blue paint on the creamy surface of the freshly-painted wall. Therein exclaimed Janet angrily to herself. I would do something like that! Just when I had almost finished, too! And with a sigh of disgust she threw the offending paintbrush toward the doorway with all her might, and sat down on the top step of the ladder, a picture of dejection. There was the sound of a falling coal bucket in the kitchen, followed by a startled exclamation, and instantly Janet realized that her paint- brush must have found a mark. She held her breath and waited. A young man appeared in the doorway, holding the paintbrush in one hand and a handkerchief in the other, with which he was attempting to remove a smudge of' blue paint from his nose. His expression of anger changed to one of amused surprise as he came face to face with Janet. She had drawn herself to her full height as she stood on the ladder and was bravely trying to assume an air of dignified poise. Her curly brown hair was disheveled and her cretonne smock bore spots of the same blue paint with which the stranger's nose was decorated. She was first to break the awkward silence. I-er-I-dropped my paintbrushj' she hastened to explain. Oh, I see, returned the young man, with an amused smile, as he had a vivid recollection of the brush coming hurtling toward him. It's quite fortunate that I came along in time to pick it up for you. if II. g It i Inf T If S.

Is the baseball 'thuse' over '? she inquired, as she began cleaning her brushes. Yes, long ago, he replied. Weren't you there? Janet shook her head. No, I wanted to finish stenciling this border. I was there, but I had to leave early. You see, I'm literally being janitor of this cottage in order to earn a little spending money in my spare hours. Janet looked at him in pleased surprise. Of all queer places to find a working boy! Of course none of the Colton College boys could be called snobs, but they were all from wealthy families and certainly none of them were working their way through school. She put on her sweater and together they left the cottage. He seemed to have forgotten his janitorial duties. You've been here all year, I suppose, Miss Taylor, he said a moment later as they crossed the college campus. Why, yes-but how did you know my name? That was easy, laughed the young man. I just entered school this semester, but I hadn't been here two days before I heard that Janet Taylor was the prettiest girl in college, so I had no doubt that you were she. Janet blushed. That was a very pretty compliment, but I haven't such an infallible way of knowing your name. Shure, an' me name is Jerry-Jerry Dennison. Your Irish brogue is quite becoming, laughed Janet. Thank ye, miss, said Jerry, as they paused before the entrance to Gaynor Hall, where Janet stayed. Then he addedl mischievously, To be shure, the blue spot on me nose is no evidence of me nationality, for I wear the green of old Erin. Janet smiled to herself as she ran up to her room. She found her roommate, Patty Weir, dressing for dinner. Betty hurry, admonished Patty, as she powdered her nose. What in the world made you so late this evening? Painting overtime, stated Janet non-committally. A few weeks later Janet and Jerry were sitting on the green ter- raced slope overlooking the school tennis courts, resting after a hotly- contested game. With the exception of baseball, tennis is my favorite game, re- marked Jerry. Yes, agreed Janet, you should be interested in baseball. Everyone is predicting a brilliant season for Colton with you on the pitcher's mound. Oh, it takes more than a pitcher to make a team, said Jerry mod- estly, and of course there are others trying out for the pitching position. 21122122222211:IITIIT'IT21 I I 'I I11IIl S.

What are you thinking of doing? asked Jerry at last. Going in for the national amateur tennis championship? Janet shook her head. I was contemplating nothing of the kind. Besides, she added, 'Tm going to be an interior decorator and paint blue borders around cream-colored dining rooms for the rest of my days. When Janet returned to her room that evening, she found Patty busily cramming Latin. You seem to have made quite a hit with the new pitcher, observed Patty, and Janet with difficulty suppressed a laugh as she recalled the hit she had made several weeks ago in the little cottage. What was the score of your tennis game, asked her roommate. 66 I don't know, said Janet absent-mindedly. Well, who won? I don't remember, admitted Janet. Humph! A love game, I suppose, commented Patty, as she resumed her study of Latin verbs. It was the day of Colton's biggest baseball game. Janet reflected with some pride that Jerry had pitched in every game of any importance and not a single defeat marred the school's record of that season. For that matter, neither had Colton's traditional rival, Forrest Academy, lost any games. Today the two undefeated teams would meet, and the Colton stadium was a mass of color for the occasion. On one side waved the gold and blue of the home school, and on the other could be seen the maroon and gray of Forrest Academy. The cheering sections were already busy. The visiting team of Forrest men was at bat first, and as Jerry started for his place in the pitcher's box, he heard Jenks, the coach say tersely, All right, Dennison. We want a no-hit game! Jerry looked doubtful. I'll try, he replied. Play ball! shouted the umpire. It was soon evident that the personnel of the teams was about evenly matched, and it was plainly a contest between the two pitchers. At the beginning of the seventh inning, the score stood 3-0 in Colton's favor. Jerry had pitched a no-hit game, and the stadium was echoing with cheers of Yea! Boom! Dennison! Two Forrest men were struck out in short order, and two strikes were called on the third man. The crowd was suddenly shocked into attention as the batter struck the ball squarely and sent it flying out between second base and center field for a two-bagger. The player managed to steal third. Jerry was plainly rattled. Hel allowed the next man to get a hit, but a good catch by the left fielder brought the half-inning to a close. Jerry was almost afraid to face Jenks for the coach's fiery temper sometimes overbalanced his usually good judgment. He said nothing to .7.,,, 7 1 , f 7 -:nuff :fun . .un Yunflu nn uufulfln nn u I. .. 1 a. g g W g...g. S.

The Colton team succeeding in getting several men on base but failed to score, and the inning ended with the score still 3-0. The Colton players were trotting out to their places in the field, when Jerry felt a touch on his shoulder. He looked around into the face of Happy Williams, whose worried expression certainly belied the nick- name which his schoolmates had given him. Jerry, he whispered, Jenks tells me to take your place. I know as well as you do that I can't pitch this game. Our only hope is that Jenks may cool off in time to put you in again. I'm sorry. Oh, forget it! said Jerry, with a half grin, as he tried hard to swallow his disappointment. Get in there and pitch-for Colton. The air was tense during that inning. The Colton cheering section shouted loyally for Happy, but he soon lost his control and before he could regain it several Forrest men had crossed the home plate. Janet's heart sank as she saw the score-keeper mark up four runs for the visit- ing team. Colton again failed to score and the eighth inning ended 4-3 in Forrest's favor. Jerry dug his spiked shoe into the dust, as he fidgeted on the bench. All right, Jerry, boy, he heard the coach say not unkindly. We need you out there! There was no time for words, so Jerry' silently took his place. His appearance on the field brought a burst of wild app'ause from the Colton cheering section. The fans' confidence in him was rewarded for he did not allow a single hit in the half-inning that followed. When Colton came to bat, the first man knocked a fly straight into the mitt of the left fielder. The second player was walked to first base, and the next man struck out. Then Jerry came to bat. Two strikes whizzed by him, and he swung viciously at the third-Crack! Up, up went the ball, and the center fielder was running back to catch it. Jerry was running madly past first base, past second, and as he rounded third Janet could see the determined set of his jaw. By this time the stands had gone wild with enthusiasm and excitement, for the other Colton man had al- ready reached home and tied the score. The center fielder had slightly misjudged his distance. He leaned far back to catch the ball but he could not reach it. The laughter occasioned by his backward somersault was soon forgotten in the shouts of victory, as Jerry finished his home run, and made the final score 5-4 in favor of Colton. As soon as Jerry could get away from his exultant and admiring team mates, he hurried to meet Janet, who was waiting for him in a corner of the practicallyedeseited stadium. That was a great game, Jerry, she said, her brown eyes still sparkling with excitement. Thank you, he said, with a twinkle in his eye. But let me tell you a deep secret. Jenks informs me that l've been awarded the Colton base- ball scholarship that is offered annually.

This should be the end of a perfect day for you! Maybe it will be, said Jerry, but you are the one to decide. Er- hoW'd you like to superintend the interior decorating of 'a sweet little cottage for two'? Why, I-I'd love that, stammered Janet.. I know you're wondering about my financial standing, but don't let it worry you: Dad has plenty of money. I was just trying to work my way through college for my own benefit. He was here to see the game today, and I've already settled this affair with him, so you can begin your plans for the decorating as soon as you wish. But please remember that in regard to my nose all rights are reserved-for that blue paint cer- tainly was hard to get off, Jerry added as he kissed her. But what about your scholarship? queried Janet. Oh, I'll continue my baseball career for a year or two. And then- Then-I'1l make a home run for the sweet little cottage and you. -Evelyn Duke, '28. 404, V 7 I H. 0 0 1 nu 2 nufuuiul ulflu1ln1lu4uufnu-'au Page one hundred screz in nw 7 7 i Y 7 f- 7 7 ' 41: S C I lla- in-In -In lu In ,au-'un .uniuu -un qi P i B -g 1 I 11 - j n 'TIP 1 -1- -I V -11- THE NEW GIRL tSecond Prize Storyy Late one January afternoon when a Lincoln car drove into Delmere, well-known college town, an old man standing on the street corner who saw the car and its occupants was overheard to say, Looks like some students coming in. The presumption was correct. Jean Miller was entering Ashley College. Her brother drove up to the Woman's Hall and after helping her in with her baggage, he bade her the last good-bye. The matron' led Jean to the east corner, first floor, and showed her the room where she was to live in the months to follow. It is a private room, said the matron. I hope you will like it. The other rooms are all occupied. Sometimes I have girls who prefer privacy, and I'm hoping you will find this satisfactory. Jean proceeded to unpack and prepare for dinner. Being tired from the day's journey, she lay down awhile and was later aroused by the dinner bell. That night when she appeared in the dining hall a host of strange faces greeted her. How am I going to like the girls? she wondered to herself. Most of the girls were friendly. Of course all were courteous. How- ever, Jean found it harder to get acquainted than if she had entered school the first of the year. Then all were strangers and began on the same level to get acquainted. By this time most of the girls had found close friends and she felt more or less an outsider. Sociable as the girls generally were, there was one who was never over-anxious to meet new people, Muriel. She had looked disinterestedly on Jean the first evening. She isn't the type of girl I care for, she decided. A few nights later a little circle of Muriel's associates were gathered in her room. I believe I'll like this new girl-what's her name? Jean Miller? said Maggie. I think she is a good sport, said another. Oh girls, I can't stand that little smile she wears when she meets me, put in Muriel screwing up her face to emphasize her remark. She wants to be nice to me and I don't like her well enough to reciprocate. I believe that's just why I can't stand her. I think she is inclined to be proud and boastfulf' said Elaine who was always known to uphold Muriel and sanction her every statement as though the fact that Muriel had made it was evidence that it was true. For instance she always wants to be bragging about the school she came from. She said she wouldn't be here if she didn't want to study music. +1 n1nn1uu': n1uu1nu nn1fmn1nu 1 1 n1u l1n 1 f : 1 1 1 1 1 1 n1uu noi: .101-11-n1n -.1--1-01 .m.1n.1.1u1.1 1 14 S0 C0 I-H 1 1 - 1 Y -- - 1 I Y-1:1-all Page one hundred eight i i - - -s- f Q rj - She is crazy about Mr. Phillips already. I can imagine she is right fast with the fellows, added Jane. Oh, well, all the girls fall for Phillips, retorted Maggie. She doesn't need to act silly over him yet, answered Jane. Yes, and from the way she talks she has been pretty gay, just to judge from the stories of the card parties and smokes she has had, further criticized Elaine. Well I hope she gets along well but I'm not rushing headlong into any relationship with her which I would probably have to break. I said I couldn't stand her, Muriel emphasized again. Thus it was that for several weeks the acquaintanceship of the two did not go beyond formal greeting. Although Muriel was too well bred to be really snobbish, she always spoke distantly and showed that she did not care to have Jean for a friend. Jean could not understand this attitude which was so different from that manifested by the other girls. Yet she felt it was due to her not understanding Muriel. The weeks went by. Then on a fateful morning an expensive pearl necklace belonging to Elaine was missing. She declared that she had laid it on the dresser only the night before. I don't like to suspect her but I'd hate to say this new girl doesn't know something about it, whispered Muriel, when Elaine reported her loss soon afterwards. Elaine looked at her blankly. You want to know what grounds I have ? Well, this morning I arose early to study, and as I turned the corner in the hall whom should I bump into but Jean. She looked startled and embarrassed and when I spoke she hurried on. At the time I didn't think anything significant in her behavior, but now connecting things up, do you remember she was in your room last night and saw you lay your necklace on the dresser? Anyone could have reached it by stepping inside the door. If I were you I'd report to the matron and have her room searched. I shall, agreed Elaine. Accordingly she reported her loss and she, with the matron, began the search. Nothing was found in the first room. The next was Jean's. and in the tray of her trunk they found a necklace. The identical necklace, I do believe, said Elaine. Clasp, size, length and all look like mine. I could not be exactly sure of that color. In conference with Jean, the matron produced the necklace and asked for an explanation. Oh th-that is mine. I got it for Christmas. It may look like Elaine's but I can produce evidence it is mine, asserted Jean. 7 7 Z , inn- 1 A-:wig it ffnuffuu .-uwfun -nuTnufun ruin in 'li 1 1 4 1 ig. rl So Cl L ll 1 ill! --Milli! lllilllillill-fill. Zllz Page one hundred nine q - h j n 'YU Cl 1 X 1 As the matron was unable to prove that the necklace was Elaine's, the matter was dropped for the time. Nothing had been accomplished except to create an unpleasant situation. One morning a week or two later, Muriel awoke with a severe case of grippe. She was almost too hoarse to talk and it was soon evident that she would have to miss classes. She regretted being absent and dreaded the long hours in her room alone, while all her friends were in school. As she lay in bed, wakeful and wishing that she might have someone with her, a light tap was heardg and Jean stepped into the room. Good morning, she greeted Muriel cheerfully. I missed you in History this morning, so I thought I'd drop in to see what had happened to you, are you sick? Oh, only a cold, answered Muriel hoarsely. She looked a bit dis- appointed when she saw that her caller was Jean, but after all it was better to have her than no one else. She sat down and after she had given a sprightly account of her morning experiences Muriel began to brighten. I have a whole period I can spend with you but I see you can't talk much. Would you like for me to read to you ? said Jean. I Why, sure, I wouldn't object, but I wouldn't expect all that. Oh that's all right. What shall I read '? History, I suppose. So she read the lesson. When she was through Muriel exclaimed, How can I thank you for giving youn time to me like that? You have helped me so much. The conversation' drifted to past experiences. Jean told of her pre- vious school life and the girls began really to get acquainted. When Jean told of the different activities she had taken part in, Muriel gleaned that she was talented and that she had been very popular among her former associates. In a sense Muriel's eyes were opened. She saw what manner of girl she was talking to. She understood Jean and felt ashamed and sorry for the things she had said about her. From that day a warm friendship sprang up between the two. That selfsame day Elaine came rushing in to Muriel and excitedly exhibited the lost necklace. She had found it in a dresser drawer that she was cleaning out. All the time it was missing, it had not been stolen but misplaced. I'm so glad, said Muriel. Muriel and Jean were seen together more and more. The girls often wondered what had wrought the change. Muriel was a true friend and fortunately Jean never knew that once she had suspected her of being a thief. Once when someone remarked I thought you didn't like Jean, Muriel only replied, Well I just didn't know her. -Lois Dunkle, '29, ninniuuf--an nuinuinnfunfunv ...,. 7 1 1 .11 aiu f f uu4un - -nr nu nllulfuliunr fnrfruln +u uniulinuxuuinn1lnn+uu+nl1-- 1 - 'lp S0 CO lil i T J '7 + 7 l 2 fill--ll!!
