SPANISH MOSS.
An Interesting Account of the Manner
in Which 1t is Gathered.

Correspondence of THE LEADER.
Spanish moss grows in all of the gulf
states, beginning below Vicksburg, Miss.
The largest quantity is gathered in the
swamps on the borders of Lake Pontchar.
train and taken to the market at New
Orleans, where it is shipped all over the
country. 1t is used for a variety of pur-
poses, such as mattresses, furniture up
holstering, pillows, etc.
The manner of gathering and curing the
moss is as follows: The moss gatherery,
generally two in number, start up the
bayous in their canoes and from there
into the small bitches, about two feet wide,
V hich abound in the swamp, and while
one poles the canoe along the ditch the
other stands in the bow and parts the
o~verhanging plants, varying the perform
ancc by striking at the countless snakes
that line the bank, from the slender and
beautifully marked king snake to the
poisonous copperhead. Arriving at a
place where the moss grows thick, they
tie their canoes and stepping out on a soil
that allows them 10 sink nearly to their
knees at every step, they proceed to pull
down the moss from the limbs of trees to
which it grows by means Of a long pole to
the end Of which an iron hook is at
tached.
Having loaded their boat. they return
to their curing ground. where as many as
fifty or one hundred loads, amounting to
several tons 10 weight, are piled in one
|Aarge pile and water thrown on it and
large pieces Of timber laid on to weight it
down. Twice a week water is thrown on
the pile, and about every three weeks it is
turned over. In from three to six months
the outside covering of the moss rots
away. 1t is then taken up in small
punches, well shaken, hung on poles to
dry and then baled for makot.
The moss thus treated is the black hair
moss. which can hardly be told from gen
uine hair Gray and brown hair is the
same moss but not SO well cured. Gray
hair moss Is worth about two cents per
pound, brown about three, and black
from lou to four and one-half cents per
pound.
The only thing the moss gatherers
dread is what is locally known as the con
ger eel or blind eel Ii has the head,
body and Shiny black skin of the eel, but
there the resemblance ceases, Near the
neck are two small legs and further down
the body are two more. The bite is rank
poison, for which there is no known rem
edy, several persons having died in less
than two hours from the bite.
The writer once picked up a bunch of
cured moss in the swamp and was glad to
let it drop when he found a large conger
eel in the moss. j. II j.
