BITTER WEATHER FAILS
TO FREEZE STILL POND

Still Pond, one of the mysteries Of
the Eastern Shore, was an object OF
veneration among the Indians of the
Peninsula. So deep as never to be
sounded, they believed its waters ran
down in the earth TO supply the happy
hunting grounds of their dead. Long
before the first European settler had
set foot upon the shores of the Chesa-
peake, the Indians from all parts Of
the Peninsula once a year during the
full moon of September assembled by
the side of the pond TO worship the
Manitou and to pray for the return Of
their mighty chief. who had, they be-
lieved. fallen into the water and sunk
from their sight.

In the upper end of Kent county,
Md, about half a mile from Betterton,
is situated famous little sheet of wa
ter, from which the town of Still Pond
gets its name.
It is located on farm owned by the
Rev. w. f. Cotton, a colored preacher.
at a village known as Colemans. This
pond is so called because there never
has been a ripple upon its surface, no
matter how hard the wind blows, nor
has its surface ever been coated
with ice. Sunday morning, with the
mercury degrees below zero. not a
particle of ice was to be seen.
Another interesting fact about this
body of water is that, although only
about 20 feet across in any direction.
It has never been fathomed.
