MOMENCE OF THE OLD FRONTTER Continued from Vol. 6 No. 3 Reprinted from TALES OF AN OLD BORDER TOWN AND ALONG THE KANKAKEE by Burt E. Burroughs, Copyrighted 1925 AN ANCIENT HUNTING GROUND IV. To fully appreciate this life of the old days in the open, one should have at some time in his career experienced not only the thrills of the hunter, but something of the weariness of a strenuous day's shooting from a boat or a "blind" in the marsh when the wind sang fine among the rushes and sawgrass and bore down the rain in fitful gusts--rain mixed with sleet--that stung the face and congealed the marrow in the bones. Hunting, even in the old days, was not "all beer and skittles." Even the faithful dog who ranged far and wide after every shot and brought in the birds that bulked high in the boat, was glad when lie was "whistled in" and the boat's prow turned in the direction of home--home, in this case, being the snug little tent set under the protecting arms of a jackoak on "hog Island", or "Tater Island," or Pigeon Island," or some other island too poor to have a name. This tent in the marsh, after a long, hard day, gave a new meaning to the well known lines of the poet: "Be it ever so humble, There's no place like home." Generally, a fellow's hunting partner happened in about the same time. The day's kill was disposed of first, for there were men who did nothing else but haul the game thus killed to the railroad at Momence for shipment to Chicago. During the years of the early seventies, Frank Longpre did much of this hauling of game, and between loads would go out and knock down a goose or two himself. Citizen Silas Sink, a well known resident of the lake region, earned the sobriquet of "Captain" by operating a small steamboat on the Kankakee river between Black Oak, in Indiana, and Momence, Illinois. It was a great convenience to the army of hunters in the swamp, for their game was regularly taken out and needed supplies brought in. During the seventies, one dozen fine mallards brought $1.00 to $1.75 in the Chicago market. After the game had been attended to, then the sheet-iron stove was lighted and supper gotten under way. These suppers in the swamp camp were more or less elaborate affairs according to the culinary skill of those most concerned. A man out hunting all day and so busy that he could only snatch a "cold bite" now and then, landed in at night literally famished. A favorite expression used to be "that he could eat the inside out of a skunk." There was a generous pot of coffee, a spiderful of bacon and, if one's culinaxy accomplishments warranted so much, a batch of hot saleratus biscuits, together with such other accompaniments as the swamp larder contained. After all, after a big day afield, battered and touseled by the winds and pelted by a cold rain, what is thee that can approach the joy and 112
creature comfort to be found in a snug, warm tent, a good supper of your own making, a pipeful of tobacco and a good pal to listen sympathetically as you relate the important incidents of the day? For most men of the old days that was just as near Heaven as a mortal could get this side of the pearly gates. And if one went so far as to take a swallow from a little borwn bottle in those pre-Volstead days, it was just to propitiate the inner man. And if, perchance, before turning in for the night, he took still another "nip," that was merely a libation to the titular Gods of the wild to be generous with their gifts on the morrow. Decidedly, there was a lure in the swamp life of the old days that touched a responsive chord in the generality of mankind. Lawyers, doctors, merchants, listened to the call of this great, out door play ground of Beaver Lake and responded in numbers. There were times when justice languished in Kankakee for weeks at a time and patiently awaited the return of her chief representatives of the bar, T. P. Bonfield, C. A. Lake, Harrison Loring, Stephen R. Moore, Willizm Potter, J. W. Paddock, and Judge Bartlett. Then there was "Uncle Pleas" Durham and Hugh Lancaster who chaperoned regularly a party of hunters who had grown old in the service but who, nevertheless, got a "kick" out of camp life and experienced a renewal of youth by the mere recital of old time memories and a whiff of the game-laden southwest winds. The ammunition of this party was contained chiefly in suspicious brown jugs. None of them could sight a gun successfully, such were the infirmities of age, but they could appraise the spots of a deck of cards by candle light, and he who can do this is not hopelessly old. The limit was twenty-five cents. The shade who remembers when everybody else forgets, intimates that they never sought "the hay" until the "Wee, sma' hours." Now and then after they had turned in, the silence would be broken by a dry, racking, raucous cough, such a cough as would make Sir Harry Lauder feel as though his education in the matter of simulating a cough had been neglected. This was later followed by the explosive "wham" of the cork as it was pulled from the neck of the ammunition jug, the liquid ripple of spirits, the deep drawn sigh of satisfaction, and then--silence. Ah, memories, memories! A volume could be written of memories and nothing more the great lake country in the days of its prime. Men in those early days, particularly those who buffeted the swamps, were observant of everything about them. They were weather-wise to a degree that seemed uncanny all because they read the signs and took due notice thereof when nature gave intimation of a change of program. The old time hunter who has campaigned in the swamps wouldn't have particularly heeded the prophesies of the high-priced government official in Chicago today. Not he. He was used to casting his eye skyward in a broad, comprehensive sweep; he knew whether the sun at its rising or going down glowed redlike a carbuncle, or was obscured by fogs or vapors; swiftly he noted the direction of the wind, whether the smoke rose straight up or hugged the ground; these indications are as infallible as a barometer. Then, too, the cirrocumuli of the meteorologist and the fleecy clouds of the "the mackerel sky" of the swamp man were equally portentous. In the marsh there were times when a significant hush fell upon the land, followed by a sudden puff of wind out of the southwest that bent the heads ofthe wild-rice sharply over and ruffled the water of the open spaces and then died away as suddenly as it came. If it were in the month 113
March, even though the sun were shining, the hunter wise to these out of door conditions knew there was something on the way, and acted accordingly. In an incredibly short time there would be wisps of thin, fleecy clouds mounting higher and higher, a freshening of the wind which in an hour's time, became a gale bearing an avalanche of snow or rain or sleet. Our friends of the wild always found a warning in the croak of the crow and the scream of the blue-jay. Even the ponderous, reverberating notes of the swamp bull-frog were pregnant with meaning for the initiated. They seemed to say, "Better go 'round! Better go 'round'! Better go 'round." The "Black Marsh," to the north-east of the lake proper was a favorite breeding ground. Here, rising above the shallow waters of the marsh by the hundreds, so thick that they suggested hay-cocks in a meadow, were the unique habitations of the musk-rats. Other contiguous swamps were similarly inhabited. Here, also, the geese in the spring, with an eye to utility and convenience, made use of the materials already provided by the industrious rats, and made their nests on the roof of his dwelling without so much as intimating "By your leave." A strange and interesting combination it was--rats within and geese without--sometimes as many as five or six of them in close proximity to one another, on the same curious mound of dried weeds and rushes. These unbidden guests of the wild when disturbed by the hunter or the near approach of his dog, would curve their long necks downward and with heads close to the water, slide easily and gracefully in after which they voiced a noisy protest at being disturbed. The mallards, more particular as to situation and more skillful in the matter of building their nests, built among the rushes and cat-tails and the rice, of which they made use in anchoring their nests in a peculiar way. A mallard's nest was made large at the bottom, tapering to a considerable height where the nest was located. The foundation materials were woven loosely about several upstanding rushes or cat-tails, so that the nest could rise or lower with the flood waters of the slough. Ordinarily one would think that it could not possibly matter whether a nest rose or fell with the tide or not. But the logic of the wild, that unerring instinct which guides certain of the waterfowl, disproves all this. Supposing the nest were firmly anchored and the waters of the slough receded so that the nest was suspended six inches above the surface of the water. The young ducklings might fall out into the water all right, but how would they ever get back home and under mother's protecting wing? With the nest thus anchored, but able to rise and lower with the waters, it rode the waves safely when the surface was lashed by heavy winds. Otherwise the nest would have been inundated. The sloping sides served an important end in this scheme ofthe wilderness household. By this means the young ducks were enabled to reach the water easily, and just as easily come from the water back into the nest. During July and August the wild life of the marsh was most interesting to observe. Multitudes of muskrats, as if conscious that their fur coats were of little value to the hunter at that time of the year, disported in numbers about the sdegy margins of the swamp. Myriads of young mallards, half grown, foraged here and there and even contested with the rats for certain choice tid-bits of marsh floatsam picked up in their wanderings. The stringy, bulbous root of the swamp artichoke was a morsel much sought by rats and ducks alike, and many a tug-of-war occurred between these opposing forces--a rat at one end and a duck at the other. The muskrats 114
were so numerous that they would run five hundred to the acre in the opinion ofthe old-time hunter. As to the mallards--there was absolutely no way in which a man could arrive at a reasonable estimate of their numbers. The homing phase of wild life was interesting to observe, and the old-timer recalls how these young, half-grown mallards, at nightfall, sought out the old nest and as many as could perched on its precipitous sides, while the balance, if the family were large--say about a dozen-sat in the water with their feet drawn up into the soft feathers of the breast, and with heads tucked under their wings dreamed of polly-wogs and bugs. The Beaver Lake region not only attracted huge flights of ducks, geese, and swan, but here, also, was the home primeval of the picturesque sand-hill crane. They frequented this section literally by the thousands. Every hunter of pioneer days has some story to relate concerning a peculiar ceremonial observed by these birds in the spring and sometimes in the early fall, which is often alluded to as the "dance of the cranes." At such times numbers of these birds gathered on a high spot of the prairie adjacent to the water. They formed in a circle, each one equidistant from his neighbor, and thus disposed they went through a series of movements strangely akin to the figures of a quadrille. Always there was a dignity of movement and a seriousness of mien and deportment altogether amusing, interesting and quite out of the ordinary. One of the movements most generally recalled by those who have witnessed them, is that which resembled "leap-frog". The bird ahead would squat close to the ground while the one behind would vault lightly over. Immediately on alighting, this bird would crouch down to the ground while the other jumped over. Beaver Lake was a body of water seven miles long and about five miles wide and from six to nine feet deep, situated mainly in McClellan township, Newton county, Indiana. Contiguous swamps added vastly to this area which was known generally as "The Beaver Lake Country." In 1853 the state of Indiana undertook to reclaim a portion of this swamp tract by running a ditch from the northwest corner of the lake to the Kankakee river, several miles away to the north. This effort was pretty much of a failure as it only caused the shoreline of the lake to recede by about one hundred yards. Twenty-five to thirty years later Lemuel Milk, of Kankakee, the well known land magnate, became interested in the project of draining this vast tract, and went after it with characteristic energy. The old ditch was widened and deepened and its carrying capacity increased. The limestone "hog-back" above Momence, Illinois, was cut through and the Kankakee, with its flood thus released, made short work of draining picturesque Beaver Lake. While the success of this great reclamation project was being acclaimed by the public in general, tragedy was stalking abroad in all the vast realm where, irom time immemorial, had dwelt the feathered legions of the wild. In the nesting places of the shallow swamps the geese had but recently brought off their broods, all unmindful of impending disaster. There were tens of thousands of these bird, soft, fuzzy goslings suddenly bereft of their native element--water. Goslings at best are poor "land-lubbers" but fine sailors and aeronauts once they are supplied with water and 115
wing-feathers, but in this case they had neither. The sight was pitiable, says A. L. Barker, whos as a boy witnessed it all. They walked and rolled and dragged themselves painfully to the few depressions in the marsh bottom where water still remained and crowded these places to suffocation. For days the sandy spaces roundabout the sloughs were alive with the roly-poly forms of these goslings, some dead, others dying, while the remainder toiled persistently though painfully landward, under a burning sun, in search of water. The helplessness and misery of these hapless waifs of the wild would have moved a soul of adamant to pity. The mother geese were everywhere encouraging their flocks as best they might, but the task was a hopeless one and one after another they fell by the wayside. Only the stronger ones and such as were helped endured and reached the life-saving water in the door-yard of the swamp settler. It was a disaster so farreaching in its effects upon the wild life of the region that man was helpless to succor them except in a very limited way. Mr. Barker recalls that he picked up numbers of these goslings and bore them to a place of safety in his father's barnyard, and that the mother geese, so far from being perturbed by the presence of man, apparently sensed that it was an act of mercy. As the goslings, wallowed in the puddles about the watering trough the old geese would stretch their necks and wag their heads up and down unruffled by the approach of a stranger, meanwhile giving voice to a delightfully soft and friendly little "croak" which, in the language of wild meant, beyond a doubt--"Thank you, mister, thank you for your kindness." The geese were not the only ones to suffer. With the passing of the waters of the lake the hosts of buffalo, cat-fish and pickerel contained therein were left marooned in shallow pools or stranded helplessly in the black muck of the lake's bottom. There were buffalo and pickerel of enormous size, patriarchs of these primeval waters, whose carcasses littered the bottom of the lake so thickly that one could step from one to another in any direction, like upon so many stepping stones. For weeks, after the release of the waters, this spot was like a charnel house, from which emanated odors of fish and game, rotting under the rays of a hot sun, that smelled to Heaven and hung over this citadel of the wilderness like a pestilential blanket. Man had won in the conflict with nature! The citadel had fallen! 116
