Excerpt from North Mountain Mementos: Legends and Traditions Gathered in Northern Pennsylvania Recently. The Middleburg Post, a leading newspaper in Snyder County, published each week a list of its subscribers who had attained the age of seventy years or over. Hundreds of old people. Men and women, sent in their ages, some of them close to the century mark. Most of them were born and many of them still lived in remote hamlets in the mountains of Central Pennsylvania. In the wild regions that were the last stand of the old modes of living. The final frontier of the modern complex civilization that the tried so hard to destroy. They were born in a day when there were still a few Indians wandering about in the mountains. Spiritless old redmen who had ceased to mourn over the fair land that was once theirs. They were born in a day when a belief in ghosts and in the supernatural in general were more widely held. And when. In consequence. Religion seemed much more real.
