Mysterious Ec6y cf Water in the

The brakeman on the Long Island

Say, kids, did you know there's a
lake down the island where the sci-
cfdes disappear. and their bodies are
found in the Atlantic ocean? That's
gospel fact. l lost a friend there
once. We dragged for his body three
days, and some fishermen picked it
up near OAK Island beach, Just out
side Fire island inlet. Now, kids
what do yon think of that? Ask your
teacher. Maybe she can explain all
about it, Needless to remark. the
lloya were much interested.
The lake referred to is Ronkonkona,
-eak of nature, about 4S miles from
New York's city hall, and half way
between Stony Brook and Sayyille,
Strange are the traditions lowering
over this small body of water. The
Indians around Islip used to call it
Ron-konk-oMA, but many of the pres
enf day Long islanders say Ron-kon-
Roma. Old "residenters" tell that
The tide rises and falls there twice in
"a hours, sometimes six inches, at otl-
er times, two feet. 1t is believed that
there is an underground connection
with Great South bay, leading to the
ocean by way of Fire Island inlet. At
times, they will declare, the water Is
salt, and at other times fresh.
