Across the Ksnawha directly opposite the town one can see two huge cliffs that project from the hillside ever the trees belotv. Although the Incident is known only to a few, here en the more precipitous of the two ledges, occurred one of tbe most remarkable leaps In the early blstory of a section so fell of thrilling events. Old settlers tallied abcut it for many a iong day afterward with wonder and astonishment. It was nest to miraculous In the tyes of the The story relates tht one of the set- tiers was being pursued so closely by a band Of savages that he bad not time to. choose his own path.

Unfortunately ha happened to take a route tiiat led to this cliff. The pursuers felt sure that he would become their prisoner and set up a shout of triumph. Too late the unhappy man found a precipitous cliff before him and a band of howling fiends at his back. Rather than perish by a slow torture at the hands' of the red devils, he rushed on and threw himself over tha rock, expecting to be dachod to pieces on the stony ground Strange to relate bis leap had been in just the position to precipitate him into the top of a giant tree that grew beneath the cliff. It so cnecked his fall that the hunter escaped) -with only a few bruises The Indians) had come up by this time, but not one of them had the hardihood to follow the example of the venturesome white man.

Toward, night the Indians, hearing of re-enforcements, eav way, notwithstanding the personal bravery of that intrepid Indian chief Cornstalk, whose voice could he heaid above the noise and din of battle, urging- his braves cn and saying, "Be strong, be etrong!" A this time the feeling for the r.iother country was none of the best, and the spirit of rebellion existed in this coleny as in many others. Lord Dunmcre. the governor of Virginia, was welt aware of this stats of affairs, and. hoping to quell the rebellious spirit in the colonial army, dispatched his supposed re-enforce-mc-nts off in another direction. Instead of bringing them to the aid of the struggling settlers.

He hoped, it is said, that the colonial army wouM be completely annihilated, thus impressing upon the minds of the colonists the necessity depending upon Great Britain for aid and protection. This may or may not he true, but no less a personage than President Roosevelt styled this as the first battle cf 'the American revolution e.t the centennial mentioned previously. He doubtless had ether and weightier reasons for so calling it. for the people of the r'ace believe absolutely in the etory. After this decisive conflict the Indians remained quiet for a few years; then the circumstances happened that gave tisa to the brutal murder of the Indian Chief Cornstalk.

Hostilities being threatened once more between the Indians and the whites it was thought advisable to call together several of the Indian chiefs, among whom was Cornstalk, in order to discuss the existing state of affairs at the fort on the point. At this time news was brought in thtit some white men had been killed from pm'oush by the Indians. It was thought best to hold Cornstalk and the other chiefs as hostages until further news could be cbtained or the otlur confirmed. Cornsfilk's son visited his father during this confinement, and their devotion for each otiier wa remarkable. In the meantime it happened that one ur two whites were kiiied by the Indians, but not oy the party to which Cornstalk belonged, wa- known at the time.

The settlers, led by a few. maddened with anger and thirsting for revenge, set up a crv of "Let us kill the Indians at the fort." and started immediately to esecute this dlie threat. All efforts on the part cf some right- minded officers at the fort to dissuade these bloodthirsty men proved unavailing Thev vowed thev would kill the orfers if they did not stand aside, and marched to the room which Cornstalk, his sen and another chief, were confined.
