escaped into the wilderness
and later died from starvationNs or
snake bite. The site OF the old lum-
ber camp is avoided even in broad
daylight, for at night, the negroes
say. the ghosts of the murdered lum-
bermen re-enact with the shade Of
the murderer the deadly struggle that
cost three lives.
The very nature Of the swamp
lends itself easily TO the preservation
of such stories. Always darkened by
the thick growth OF Overhanging jun
gle, with the 1ow-hanging limbs Of
trees clustered with mOccasinS and
black snakes summing themselves, the
swamp, even in its more Open reaches,
Is awe-inspiring, but at night, when
the blackness Of the swamp water
mingles with the biackness Of the
night, the minds OF the simple folk
n dwell there are easily impressed
and the maze OF the jungle are peo-
pied with a thousand phantom forms.
During ante-bellum days, the
swamp was a hiding place for run
away slaves, who were rarely pur-
sued far, but the need Of escape was
desperate indeed that forced a fu-
gitive into the forbidding gloom of this
wilderness. Only the masterful cour-
age of the chief, Osman, permitted a
residence there. and the negroes have
been known to submit to capture
rather than brave the unknown ter
rors OF the swamp.
A ghost story Of the swamp very
popular before the war was the tale
OF how an army Of ghostly workmen
might be seen at night along h site
OF the Old canal. These are supposed
to have been the ghosts of the men
employed to dig a drainage canal by
q ana company which once undertook
to drain the area and in which George
washington is said to have been f.
nancially interested. This story, how
ever. had it's vogue and is practically
dead by now. although a few Of the
very old and very superstitious dwell
4 ers yet believe it.
The vastness, the mystery and the
danger Of the dismal swamp breed :
host Of terrors which live through
generation after generation of the set
tiers. and will probably continue to
live while the great swamp remains
