PAGE " SEVEN
THE. ..O�
, BY REV. DUNCAN MCTAVISH
When the log jars forced the
river from its original course. a
new situation had to be met in
order to cut a channel at• the foot
of the hill. To build another bridge
over this stream was a financial.
impossibility and, so some other .
Way had to be found;,, It was found
in the log walk. •
The• walk consisted of a,hemlock,
tree some thirty..feet in .length. It •
was hewn flat on two, sides .leaving
a walking surface of about ten,
inches. It had a little' bow in it
which was*turnedipward to. give
the log greater strength and, lift it''
that much farther from the,water.
It was easily moved., when conditio-
ns ,required it. Both ends were
mounted on a pile .of -dry stones
which helped to keep it in place
when high'' water' threatened its
removal. This happened on several
occasions when . the water rose
quickly and thewalk took a journey
downstream., However, it was usua-
lly found in some eddy and when '
the water subsided, a trip .with the
log: boat` brought it back to its accu-
stomed place and trafficwas again
restored.. .
Walking, across pn this log when.
the water' was swirling.underneath„ •
was more . than• some folk ;could
manage unless they were assisted
They found'themselves seized••.with
a sudden dizziness and tumbled into
the .water.. ,This.:happenedto one' of
my sisters who was carrieddown-
stream some distance before I man-'
aged to rescue'her., But no:harrn• .:
Paine to her except a ducking in.
water at a' time. of year. which was
hardly suited for condonable bath,-
•
ing;
ft' is said •dint "'necessity is the
mother of invention"'. and so it.
proved in this instance. A' few. trips
downstream to bring the log walk
back home- led to a way of
avoiding these.. episodes. A heavy'.
stake was driven into the bank,. to
-which-was fns eine' ,a ong ogging
chain.' The other' end was' clasped •-
around .the log walk So when high
water lifted it 'from its moorings, it
simply, swung around to the. edge of
.'the'.river held by the chain To
testore it to its place when the
water subsided was •a simple . matter.
