LEGEND OF NATURAL BRIDGE
1t Saved the Mohegans and Was
Thenceforth Called by Them
the Bridge of God.

At height of 215 feet above Clear
creek in Virginia stands the famous
natural bridge known all over the
world. Built of solid rock forty feet
thick, it spans the creek. 1t is a
great natural wonder. Our great and
beloved national hero, George Wash
ington, once climbed it and carved
his name upon it's side. The Mohegan
tribe of Indians called it the Bridge
of God and ascribed to it this super
natural origin.
Once upon a time it happened that
the Mohegans were at war with hos
tile tribe of Indians. The fight was
hot, and valiant stand they made
against their foe. But at last the Mo-
hegans were forced to give way and
to retreat. On and on they went,
the whole tribe with their women and
children, and the enemy behind them.
Finally they came to a precipice. Be-
low yawned a cavern, wide and deep,
and no way to cross or means to es-
cape was anywhere to be seen. Peril
ous and helpless indeed was the
plight of the Mohegans They were
ready to give up and submit to the
cruel fate that was pursuing them
Then wise man of the tribe spoke.
my children" he said, Ego down upon
your knees and pray to the Great
Spirit above, who alone can save us
from our misfortunes"
All in body they obeyed the words
Of the old medicine man. Long and
hard they prayed. When they finally
lifted up their heads, 10, there stood
mighty bridge. Across it they now
led the women and children, and then
turned upon their foes, who were
close at hand. They gave the enemy
q hard battle and finally repulsed and
defeated them. In gratefulness to
Manitou, the Great Spirit of the world,
they named this bridge the Bridge of
God.
