Historic lecture set for Sept. 3
By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ The project to expand and renovate Richards Library, an ambitious effort underway for over a decade, is soon coming to a long-awaited conclusion, Library board president Susan Jennings said this week. The LibraryÕ s addition Ñ complete with community room, book stacks and public computer facilities — will officially accommodate the public after a certificate of occupancy is obtained, perhaps this coming week, she said. A public open house to show off the libraryÕ s new amenities is tentatively set for mid-September, she added. The library is retaining its historic ambiance while equipping itself to meet the needs of a new tech-savvy generation, Jennings said. Ò WeÕ ll now be bridging the digital divide,Ó she said, noting that the library is now setting up six public computer work stations in the area the circulation desk once was situated. Also, staffers are being CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

Bicentennial, parade wow crowd By Thom Randall thom@denp ubs.com POTTERSVILLE Ñ Standing behind an exhibit of posters and news articles of the 1916 Pottersville Fair during a festival Aug. 24 that drew people from afar, town of Chester Historian Donna Lagoy talked about the historic fairgrounds underneath their feet. An hour or so earlier, thousands of
people had lined the streets of Pottersville and watched a gala parade with bands and marching units from as far away as Vermont and Canada. Such a spectacle was not experienced in this hardy hamlet since 1916, Lagoy told those examining her historical display, one of scores on the fairgrounds. The four-division parade of over 60 units was indeed the largest held in the northern Warren County region in many decades, if not a century.

In West Stony Creek, many of the old roads and a few small settlements have faded into nature as the state acquired land there for the Adirondack Forest Preserve beginning in the early 1900s. A similar fate awaits the Cody Place.

Jeremy Whipple promoted to athletic director at N. Warren By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN Ñ When students return to school this next week, theyÕ ll discover that North Warren Central School has a new person in charge of athletics and physical education. Jeremy Whipple, 35, a physical education instructor and coach at North Warren in recent years, has stepped into the role of Athletic Director following Jason HumistonÕ s resignation. Humiston moved on this summer to take over the position of Athletic Director at Fort Ann Central School. During the six years Whipple has been employed at North Warren Central, heÕ s been teaching physical education primarily to students in 4th through 8th grades, and heÕ s coached Junior Varsity soccer and basketball as well as Varsity softball.
Whipple grew up in Hudson Falls, he attended Castleton State College, and was granted a Masters in Education from the University of New England. In his new post, he oversees all physical education and athletics programs, as well as serving as physical education instructor at the high school level. Whipple, who resides in Schroon Lake, said he was pleased to follow in the footsteps of Jason Humiston, who is known as a high-energy coach with lofty expectations for the schoolÕ s teams. During HumistonÕ s reign, North WarrenÕ s in sports teams had remarkable accomplishments despite the school districtÕ s small enrollment, Whipple said. Ò North Warren has gained the respect of other teams through recent years,Ó Whipple said. Ò They know theyÕ re going to have a real game when they come up against the Cougars, and thatÕ s

Ò The great thing about this tournament is that it attracts both competitive golfers as well as pleasure golfers who come out to support North Country Ministry,Ó said Paul Arends, a member of the agencyÕ s board of directors. Ò CroninÕ s is a beautiful, challenging, well-maintained course that appeals to all kinds of players.Ó Sponsorship opportunities are still available to businesses or individuals. Ò The tournament has devel-
oped a reputation for being a beautiful fall afternoon in the Adirondacks, with great golf, for a really great cause,Ó said Dr. James Morrissey, chairman of the board. North Country Ministry was founded in 1992 in response to a tremendous need for outreach services in northern Warren County. The organization provides help to anyone in need without consideration of religious affiliation. By working cooperatively with civic and other church
communities, the agency helps meet the needs of the poor and disenfranchised in the most rural portions of Warren County, providing assistance and advocacy to improve familiesÕ quality of life.

something to take pride in.Ó Whipple said he had learned a lot from coaching alongside Humiston, and he was going to work hard to keep up the momentum. Ò IÕ m going to pursue the same approach as Jason Ð his obviously worked,Ó he said. Ò I expect there to be a smooth transition.Ó Humiston said he would miss the school staff members and students as well as all the people in the North Warren community. Ò Taking the job at Fort Ann and leaving North Warren was a difficult decision to make,” he said, noting that he lives in Argyle Ñ minutes away from Fort Ann rather than an hourÕ s commute to Chestertown.

Historic cabin from page 1
to use and occupyÓ a four-acre parcel within the 240-acre larger parcel of the two deeded parcels. The little parcel is known as the Cody Place after John Cody of Lake George, who for many years leased the cabin and its surrounding plot of land. Cody has lived there much of the time since 1975, relishing the beauty and peace as well as hosting many gatherings of his wide circle of friends, he said in a recent interview. The beloved two-story cabin with its comfortable porch is the last remaining building in the area of the historic Barber Place in West Stony Creek. Strung along a few miles of isolated road through West Stony Creek was once a loose cluster of small farms where families worked the valley and gentle hillsides during the 1800s and early 1900s. The well-crafted log building is located in the town of Thurman three miles north of the townÕ s border with Stony Creek. Crafted of squared-off logs, the cabin sits in a clump of pines on top of the grassy hill. From its porch, thereÕ s a sweeping view of the forested mountains. Down the road in a valley nearby are two more hunting-club camps that were once homesteads of West Stony Creek at the location called Fullers: the S. L. Hunting Club and the Dog and Pup Club. These are located on the only remaining privately owned land in West Stony Creek. In addition to the farmhouses, barns, and other buildings, the isolated community of West Stony Creek once boasted a general store at the Barber Place, which the late William Liebl of Stony
Creek once said was known as the trading post. Bill loved the Barber Place, where he and his wife Patty hosted snowmobilers at their camp during the sixties, renting from Marge and Jack Baker who ran a hunting camp there into the 1970s. Years ago, Liebl told me that the land on which the general store and the rest of the buildings in the Barber Place were located was acquired by the state to add to the Adirondack Forest Preserve. About a week after the acquisition, the state piled up all the buildings, including the house and trading post, and burned them. Their act was typical of state policy in West Stony Creek. Only the Cody Place was spared. The forest would grow up and cover the traces of the once tight-knit settlement. Somewhere on the original homestead property that includes the Cody Place lie the foundations of the structures in the community known as the Barber Place in earlier times. The locations of the gravestones and remains of the houses and other buildings are known to few. The state purged the traces of all that the men and women did to make a homestead, raise their children, and spend their entire lives producing the sustenance for their needs from food to fuel to shelter. Even their gravesites are not memorialized, although state law requires that cemeteries be kept open and with good access roads. The state has not even erected a historic plaque to commemorate the West Stony Creek that was. The Cody Place now sits atop the sweeping pasture as a lone sentinel on behalf of the people who made their homes there or later came to camp and hunt at the Barber Place.

The death toll from 9/11 continues to rise
O
n Sept. 11, 2001, 2,606 people were killed when terrorists dive bombed the twin towers in New York City, both inside and outside the buildings. Another 266 died aboard the four hijacked airliners. But the real untold story is that a total of 4,252 people have actually perished as a result of the deadly attack Ñ and they are still dying today. In the years since that devastating day, at least 1,400 first responders have died as a direct result of illnesses caused by the toxic cloud that engulfed lower Manhattan for months after the attack. An estimated 19,000 are now sick or dying. Thats the dirty little secret that politicians donÕ t want to talk about, and very few people even know about. When the twin towers went down, uniformed first responders and civilians alike flocked to Ground Zero hoping to help in whatever way they could. State and Federal agencies, the National Guard and the Red Cross brought people in from around the country. The air, they were told, was safe. The head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Christine Todd Whitman herself, took to the airways to reassure people. Lower Manhattan had to re-open for business Ñ thatÕ s where the stock market is after all. Try to bring your old computer to the landfill and throw it away. You can’t. It’s against the law. Why? Because of all the chemicals and hazardous materials that are inside. Now picture the fact that every desk in every office in the twin towers had a computer on it, and they all burned in the fire after the towers fell, releasing toxic vapors that hung in the air for months. Plus there was cement dust, asbestos, and
burned plastic. But the air was safe to breath, responders were told. The first wave of illnesses and deaths following 9/11 were lung related. The second wave, which many experts warned about at the time, is cancer. Of the 19,000 sick responders, roughly 2,000 have a certified form of cancer. Many others have cancers that have not been officially recognized as being related to 9/11. And this doesnÕ t count an unknown number of people who fell ill or have died, but didnÕ t relate it to their time at Ground Zero. In 2010 Congress grudgingly passed the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act, setting up a Victims Compensation Fund for responders, but not until billions of dollars were slashed from the fund in order to overcome a Republican filibuster. October 3 is the deadline for registering with the Victims Compensation Fund. People who were at Ground Zero, whether they were first responders or civilian volunteers, are being urged to register with the program, even if they are not currently sick. Anyone who develops a 9/11-related illness on Oct. 4 who is not registered, will be entitled to nothing. Of the 19,000 people registered with the VictimÕ s Compensation Fund, 12,000 are not from the tri-state area. There are 435 congressional districts in the United States, and 430 of them have at least one registered 9/11 responder. This is a national problem, and one that is not going to go away no matter how much politicians wish to ignore it. Americans are still dying as a direct result of the 9/11 attacks, and more are likely to become sick as the years go by. ItÕ s not something we can afford to put in the rear view mirror and hope it goes away.

Seduced by a Stream
R
ecently, I was seduced by a small stream that continually calls me back to its banks for a final embrace, and just one last cast. There is no doubt the natural siren has my number, and she knows exactly what I need. When I last visited, she provided me with a beautiful, sleek rainbow trout that was almost translucent in its all-natural, crimson and scarlet garb. Soon after the release, I was again contemplating an escape from the watery vixen, until my efforts were rewarded with another battle-worn veteran of the great piscatorial wars. Although the old, brown trout was barely a nudge beyond 13 inches, it waged a battle worthy of a specimen far larger than his actual measure. It possessed the punch of a heavyweight, and as it hunkered down in the swell of a small waterfall, it put up a fight far greater than his size would generally permit. I battled him back and forth on his own terms, and he used the familiar environment to his advantage again and again. Eventually, after untangling my line from various streamside entanglements, I brought him to the shore. Being careful not to mare his image in the handling, I gently twisted the hook upside down and shook him free. Stunned for a moment, he soon swam slowly away before coming to rest in the shade of an overhanging rock ledge, which is when I believe I discerned a sly grin overtaking his wide, hooked chin. I again attempted to depart the luxurious embrace of my steady and gentle streamside siren. In my mind, I had already shed my waders, and retired my vest to the riverbank. In reality, my flyline was still on the water, and as my fly was sucked into a small eddy, a strong whirlpool pulled it under the surface. Serendipity certainly has its moments, and this time it provided me with one of my own. As I reached down to pick up my rod, a beautiful brook trout slapped and skittered across the surface of the small, backwater pool. The fish took my fly subsurface, without even the thought of an attentive twitch on my part. The little brookie appeared to be intent on committing individual piscicide, until I gently landed and unleashed him. I held it up with my two fingers and admired it for the shear beauty of its markings, rather than for its diminutive stature, which was small, but feisty. Obviously, no one in his school bothered to teach the youngster about the necessary cautions required when chasing a false slab of fur and feathers thatÕ s often found swirling beneath a dark cloud of a watery debris. Although I only removed him from his watery lair for just a moment, he took off like a fish on a mission upon release. It was nearly four oÕ clock by my reckonings when the afternoon sun slowly slipped beyond the far treeline. Again, I went through the rites of a proper streamside retreat. I knew I needed to depart the caressing arms of the lonely stream, in order to escape her sweet babble. She had held me in her spell for far too long, and now it was time to retreat! Quickly, I repacked the small wicker creel, and restored numerous flies to my vest. My hiking boots were rebooted in an exchange with felt bottomed waders, and I was well on my way back to the truck when it struck me. My favorite flyrod remained cradled in the careful arms of a small bush on the bank of the stream, way back down in the gorge. I promptly deposited an armload of belongings in the back of the truck and hopped over the bank to return to the stream. Ò She simply wonÕ t let me leave,Ó I remarked to no one in particular, Ò Which is probably a good thing.Ó I grabbed my rod from the streamside and as I turned to head back up the hill, the sound of the slightest splash caught my ear. Then there was another, and then some more! At the head of the big pool, I could see small, silvery fish that were attempting to navigate their way over the tall falls. For a moment, I sat on a streamside boulder and simply stared. I was transfixed by the audacity of the diminutive salmon as they sought to answer an instinctive urge to complete an upstream migration completely driven by their genes. As tiny fry, the silvery marvels were stocked in the headwaters of the brook, and unbeknownst to them, there was no real need for them to return to breed. If they failed to complete their genetic mission, the DEC would still continue to stock many more of their kind. Obviously, nobody bothered to tell the salmon about the situation, and as a result, they continued to leap into the falls in contemplation of making it to the big show. I knew dinner was nearing the table at home and surely, I should go. IÕ d had my fun for the day, and I know a busmanÕ s holiday should never be overdone. But retreat as I may, my feet simply couldn’t move. I stood transfixed at the sight of salmon leaping into the air, despite being pounded back into the holding pool. Ò What the hell, IÕ ll take one last cast and then get out of here,Ó which I did. And as my line neared the falls, a slender, silver missile took the fly right out of the air. Carefully, I released it up above the falls. Without hesitation, I sent a second cast out and landed another salmon, and then another in rapid secession. With each release, I pitched a fish above the falls. They wanted the river, and the river wanted them. It was almost too easy, but I wanted to fulfill my duty. In a span of 10 minutes, I tossed more than two dozen salmon over the falls on the way to a migration they neither understood, nor had the capacity to complete. But at least they would get there! In a single afternoon, I attracted three varieties of trout and over three dozen salmon to the tip of my flies. No wonder I found myself caught in a siren’s grasp. If the erasable grin on my face offered an indication, it was well worth it! And being the dutiful deadbeat Dad who often fails to return on time for supper, I ate every bit of the burnt steak and endured the scorn of the cold corn waiting on the dining room table. Fortunately, my presence at dinner was neither expected, nor required. However, the lame excuse did serve as false alarm to help wrench me away from a sensuous, small stream and a multitude of energetic playmates that willingly attended to my every need.

Dam dilemma! T
hroughout the North Country, there are streams that have been used as power sources in the past. Logs were transported downstream in the early spring via the power of the moving water. This fluid power ran sawmills, grain grinding grist mills, and supplied hydraulic muscle to turn turbines for electric power. Water was used by many factories along the rivers for the manufacturing of various items like paper making. In the southern Adirondacks water was used in many of the tanning facilities like those in Amsterdam and Gloversville. The streams were a tool to be used and little thought was given to protect fisheries. Numerous chemicals and other pollutants were dumped into the streams, many changed with the color of the chemical being used that day. The fish had to fend for themselves. They either went up clear water tributaries to survive or downstream to lakes if they could get there. If they didnÕ t make it, they were sushi for the birds and mammals along the shoreline. Many of the old stone and wooden cribbed dams that were layed up in the early years of the Adirondacks are gone. Some still remain as dams for reservoirs for town water supplies, although surface water supplies are no longer allowed in New York, with the exception of New York City. NYC gets their water from open reservoirs in the Catskills. New York City gets away with a lot of things that the rest of us have to deal with. I guess we know where the voting power is for New York, donÕ t we! Many of the dams in the state are getting old, and becoming a threat to downstream residents. Repairs are expensive and engineering to ensure safety is costly, very costly now days. With the increases in high volume storm events like Hurricane Floyd, Irene and others, having a dam in a state of disrepair is a liability. No town can afford a lawsuit brought on by a dam that gives way. On the fisheries side of the story, tail water streams below dams are some of the most productive fisheries. Cold water discharged from the bottom of the dam supplies a continuous supply of cool water to the stream below. These dams release water at certain rates, so the stream doesn’t have great fluctuations in stream flow. This makes the stream ideal trout habitat. This nutrient rich, cold water makes a fabulous trout fishery. In New York, the East Branch of the Delaware River along the NY and Pennsylvania line gets water from the Pepacton Reservoir. This tail water stream is world famous for its trout fishing. The Pepacton Reservoir is one of the holding areas for the NYC water supply. Every fly fisherman has heard of the Frying Pan, the South Platte and the Arkansas in Colorado, or Lees Ferry on the Colorado River in Arizona. All of these are famous gold class tail water streams. The nutrient rich, cold water makes these streams, the Ò dream streamsÓ of many fly fishers. Folks like myself, travel all over the US to fish these waters. These streams draw in thousands of fisherman into the area where they purchase meals, hotels, fishing equipment, hire guides and just plain old spend money locally. Our own Ausable River is not a tail water stream, but it does bring in hundreds of fly fishermen to the area, where they spend their money. That is good for our local economy. There are also downsides to dams. One downside is that all dams are not bottom discharge dams. Many dams have the water released from the top of the dam, or over spillways. The problem then becomes warm water. The lake behind the dam heats up during the summer and that warm water is then discharged into the stream, affecting the trout fishery below. Much depends on the size of the impoundment and supply temperature of water to the stream above the lake. Large impoundments have a greater effect on the stream below. The plus side to this type of dam is that bugs that hatch on the lake get washed over the spillway and feed the fish below the dam. Trout are cold water species. When the water warms, they migrate into cold water spring seep pools, cooler water stream tributaries or out to a lake to get to their comfort zone. If they canÕ t migrate to colder water, they can die. Once again, sushi! A second problem is that the natural migration of aquatic organisms is stopped by dams. Whether it’s the fish, invertebrates, minnows or other stream critters, dams can stop their natural migration up or down stream. This results in a loss of diversity in the upstream reaches. The continuity of the stream habi-
Adirondack Journal - 7
tat must be maintained to keep a sound aquatic community. On the flip side, dams may prevent By Rich Redman the spread of invasive species into a river system, like lamprey eels. Brook trout, brown trout, rainbows (steelhead) and smallmouth bass all spawn in the streams at various times. Some spawn in spring and some in fall. They may migrate back to the lake or stay in the stream. Steelheads are rainbow trout that migrate back and forth from stream to lake. Cattaraugus Creek in western NY is known for its steelhead runs and smallmouth fishery. Dams can stop this natural occurrence from ever happening. There is talk of removing the dam in Springville NY to allow access to another 20 or more mile of habitat for trout and other fish. We have dams in our area that also limit fish passage. A third problem is that dams can allow ice to form and build up. In spring thaws, flooding can occur due to the ice jamming. Fast running water tends to be open, meaning itÕ s not frozen over, so ice jamming is less likely. Dams also stop the natural transport of sediment through the river system, which can increase erosion along stream banks. From a river restoration view point, the removal of some dams is a good thing. The effect on the river system depends on the location of the dam within the river. A dam at the top of the watershed doesnÕ t affect the river as much as one near the mouth of the stream. The closer to the mouth, the less likely there will be much fish and aquatic migration. Top discharge dams affect the water temperature for the fish below the dam, and can restrict fish and aquatic organism passage from their natural migration patterns. With fast moving waters ice formation is reduced and there is a greater probability of less flooding in the immediate area. Dam removal projects get very emotional for people, especially the ones who live right on the impoundment. People fear it will turn into a mud hole or swamp. But it really turns back into the original floodplain. Usually the vegetation takes over so fast along the old shoreline that the restoration process happens on its own. With foresight and planning, the old shoreline can also be planted with various grassesÕ to keep it open. Folks can then enjoy the new fast moving rapids and stream flow alongside a grassy bank that will supply fish with terrestrial bugs like grasshoppers, crickets and ants. You will get to see the river the way it was, not hidden under water. Dams were built by man and can be removed by man. Power dams that supply electricity for the country or reservoirs for human water supplies are important and we need them. Some dams in the west restrict salmon migration and have garnered considerable heated discussions among fisheries groups. We are not talking about the Hoover Dam or the pyramids or some historical site. We are talking about old stone and wood cribbed structures and dams that are in need of costly repairs. They are liabilities to the human residents downstream and to the aquatic residents in the stream. We have seen numerous flooding events in recent years and its time we take a real good look at all of our watersheds and make decisions that are good for the economy of our area and are long term solutions to flooding. This is where the whole dam dilemma comes into play. Removal of a dam changes the landscape for the people nearby, but in the long run it will reduce many of the problems associated with the dam. If the fisheries can be improved, ice jamming reduced and the river brought back to its natural state, then it gets my vote. An improved fishery can start drawing folks from other areas and states to our area. When they come here and spend money it is good for our economy. They can enjoy our local foods and fish, served up on a platter at a local restaurant or bar! Now we need some homegrown beer, wine and cider to go with that fish dinner.

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden •100 years ago - August 1913• Schroon River claims boy’s life
While for the first time in his 17 years of life enjoying the pleasure of going in swimming, Seward Hack and his 10-year-old brother, Grenville and friend Wyman Bennett, 16, went up the river Aug. 9, 1913 from their home on the Ò KlondikeÓ in Lewisville, Warrensburgh carrying their bathing suits for an afternoonÕ s sport. Arriving at a point on the Clark farm, where in a shady spot a sand bar extends for some distance into the Schroon River, the boys splashed in the shallow water, a short distance from Sheridan E. ProsserÕ s place (near Rosalee Avenue) off Horicon Avenue. The boys were wading about the sand bar and young Hack, who could not swim, stepped off into 12 feet of water in the center of the river and sank immediately to the bottom. S.E. Prosser, Burnis Wade and Fred Glynn entered a boat and went rapidly to the scene and retrieved the body, which had been under water for half an hour, with a pike pole. George Hack, young HackÕ s father, who is employed at the Pulp Mill at Burnhamville, was brought to the scene by W.L.R. Durkee in his automobile. His grief when he saw the dead body of his boy was pitiful to behold. The corpse was taken home and the mother was prostrated and the heart-rending grief of the parents, the brother and five- year-old sister cast a pall of sadness over all. The dead youth was employed in the cutting room of the shirt factory. He was a good boy. The family came here last spring from Stony Creek and the body was taken back to that place for burial.

corrupt practices act and to dispose him from the governorship. At daybreak, Aug. 13, 1913, after an all-night session in the capital at Albany, the assembly, by a vote of 79 to 45, adopted a resolution calling for the impeachment of Gov. Sulzer who says he will carry the case to the U.S. Court of Appeals. He also says that he has the strength and force of the National Guard of the state to use against any attempt to remove him from office and he has the right to call out the militia to aid him. No governor of New York has ever been impeached and not in 121 years has any governor of New York ever been accused of any violation of law. Lt. Governor Glynn declined to take any hand in the controversy.
Daring young men
News has come from France that Adolphe Celestin Pegoud has thrilled his countrymen with a death-defying feat never before attempted by mankind. On Aug. 19, 1913, Pegoud has made the first parachute jump in Europe. On Aug. 20, 1913 he became the first pilot, setting a world record, to parachute from an airplane. (Note - Pegoud was a handsome devil and the ladies adored him. He was a world War I flying ace and on Aug. 31, 1915, at the age of 26 years, he was killed while intercepting a German reconnaissance air craft over Petit-Croix. This was much the same way the Ò Red BaronÓ ended his days just a few years later. Ò Live fast, die young and have a good looking corpse,Ó as the old saying says.)
News near and far
It is reported that this summer (1913) the temperature hit 134 degrees in Death Valley, California. There are currently 97,225,000 people in America. Teamster boss Jimmy Hoffa was born Feb. 14, 1913. (He has not been seen since 1975.) August is the month that marks a breathing spell between haying and harvesting. This is the best time of the year to plant grass seed.

More to the Ross saga
(Note: There is nothing as rewarding to this columnist as telling a good story here and then having someone call to relate how the story eventually all turned out. It was a pleasure to hear from Myrtle Ross who lives on the Schroon River Road.) Myrtle is the daughter of the Ò BarryÓ (Garry David Ross) whose story appeared in this column in the July 27 and Aug. 10, 2013 Journal. At Wevertown, on July 30, 1913, Garry, 9, and his brother, Leonard Ross, 11, defied their stepfather Henry Johnson and attempted to drive two horses, attached to a hay rake, to the barn. Both were thrown out when the frightened animals ran away and the boys were caught up by the rake and dragged over the ground. LeonardÕ s body was carried along with the rake until it struck a rock and when his poor mangled body was thrown away from it, Mr. Johnson picked it up and carried him to the house. He was than carried about half a mile on a stretcher by the hands of neighbors to the state road and than taken to Riverside station where he was placed
on a train for Albany. At the hospital there he was declared dead and it is believed that he died instantly in the hay field. His funeral, in the Bates Cemetery, was largely attended.
The rest of the Ross tale
Garry Ross, his leg broken in two places and the other badly mangled had to wear a heavy leg brace for the rest of his life. He married Reilla Gates and I am told by his daughter that he fathered 13 children. One was born a couple of months after his death. I only find a record of Myrtle, Lillian, Geneva, Garry Jr., and Charles Ross. His mother, Mrs. Henry (Chloe Sawyer) Johnson went on to marry George Lahay of Igerna. Garry, the son of William Ross, had a half sister, Sarah Johnson who later lived in Crown Point and Garry was the nephew of David Sawyer of Foxlair Camp, Bakers Mills.
Disaster strikes once again
Garry Ross, 28, on Sept. 3, 1932, had been employed for three weeks at the Tahawus Club at masonry work with his stepfather, George Lahey. On that fateful day, he and Edward Sheehan of North Creek, another employee of the club, were engaged in transporting stone across Lake Santinoni using a motorboat to tow a raft laden with stones. While they were loading the stone, the motorboat floated out from shore and both men jumped into the raft, intending to push the load to the boat. Suddenly the raft tipped, throwing both men into the water. Sheehan swam to the shore, but Ross went down and did not rise again to the surface. It is believed that he was struck by some of the stones as the raft tipped. The body was recovered about three hours later and no water was found in his lungs. Funeral services were conducted Sept. 6, 1913 at the home and later at the Methodist Church in Wevertown, the Rev. A. Johnson Cambridge officiating. Garry Ross is buried in the Bates Cemetery with the rest of his large family after his brief but eventful life. Twice in his life he managed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Memories of bygone days
The John Thurman Historical Society will be holding an interactive program of projected photographs and anecdotes with David Newkirk and John Parker at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 3, in the Thurman Town Hall. People attending this free presentation are urged to share memories that may reveal the history of some unidentified pictures. Readers note that recent issues of the societyÕ s Quarterly are still available. For more information, call 623-2007. The Society is now accepting reservations for its Sept. 14 Tour Thurman: A Guided Jaunt into Homes and History. My husband and I attended this event last year and learned so much about the town we live in.

Be sure to give yourself enough time for traveling at a reasonable speed to and from to work. School is back in session this week and busses will once again be on the roadways. Children are often overly excited the first few days of school and while our bus drivers are skilled at overseeing the children safely, a youngster may be so happy to see their friends again that they disregard the driversÕ instructions. Sally Feihel of Adirondack Spectral Investigations expresses thanks to the Thurman Station Association, Nettle Meadow Goat Farm, Valley Road Maple Farm and to everyone who donated items for the luncheon and gift baskets for the Historical Haunts of Thurman Ghost Tour held Aug. 17. Sally adds that it was a huge success and plans are in the works for another tour next year. When you go out into the woods this fall please remember that early bear season starts Sept. 14 and runs until Oct. 18. Muzzle loading begins Oct. 19 and runs through Oct. 25.

The state Department of Conservation has a program called Become a Black Bear Management Cooperator. There are three
www.adirondackjournal.com simple steps and they are as follows: first, report your bear harvest. Second, submit a premolar tooth from the bear for DEC to determine the bearÕ s age. Upon completion you will receive a commemorative patch. Gail Needham would like to remind residents that now is a great time to pick up items to fill shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. This mission sends filled shoeboxes overseas to children who may receive nothing on Christmas morning. Items that are often added to these boxes are pens and pencils, hard candy, small toys and perhaps a child-size shirt. Last year out of the 96 boxes shipped a mere 13 came from Thurman. Come on Thurmanites, we can do better! Transfer station hours will remain the same throughout the fall season, noon to 3 p.m. on Wednesdays and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Required bags can be purchased either at the Thurman Town Hall or the town transfer station. Those having a difficult time getting their trash to the Thurman transfer station can call Jim Desourdy at 623-4254 and he will take them for you for $5 per week or as needed. He only charges for the week he picks up. Jim runs his route every Saturday starting at 9 a.m..

Back injuries are a major source of disabling injuries. Warrensburg EMS is seeking to obtain a power stretcher to make lifting patients easier and safer for our members. A $4000 grant from the Glens Falls Foundation and a $1000 gift from a generous donor bring us much closer to the $10,000 needed. Please consider helping your local emergency rescue squad purchase this vital piece of equipment to enable safer and more efficient patient care.

trained to assist patrons in obtaining and downloading material for their e-readers, she added. The library’s historic ambiance is retained through the use of lighting fixtures in classic styles, generous use of oak trim, and architecture that retains and enhances the libraryÕ s 1901 origins. The small area that once hosted book stacks is now where the circulation desk is situated. The addition, located at the rear, features expansive rows of bookshelves, a public reading lounge, two new handicapped accessible rest rooms, an elevator that takes patrons to both levels, archive storage, a small meeting room, and a large community room Ð the latter to be available for various groups, cultural events and presentations, Jennings said. The project includes installing fire sprinklers and other upgrades to meet current building code, she added. The effort to expand the library was launched in 2001, but languished for several years in the mid-2000s while its endowment, intended for capital improvements, was used for operating expenses. The construction project was rekindled after a multi-year concerted effort to corral state grants for the construction and establish public funding for operations. Additionally, a public vote in May 2012 approved raising $98,100 in revenue annually through a tax on property owners residing in the boundaries of the Warrensburg Central School District, primarily Warrensburg and Thurman. Jennings said these two funding sources allowed the completion of the stalled library expansion effort. Looking at the first floor of the library addition, Jennings smiled and said the library would now, more than ever, meet the needs of area citizens. Ò This is going to be forever,Ó she said.

competed back then on behalf of the North Creek Fire Co. While parents visited the exhibits and various booths and exhibits, children rode spinning apple-shaped cars and whirling, airborne swings Ñ or played various midway games. They also lined up at a booth sponsored by Faith Bible Church where the parishÕ s teens created balloon sculptures. Other children tossed dimes into glasses at a booth operated by the local Girl Scouts Troop 3151. Nearby, Boy Scout Dylan Baker of Troop 30 manned a mini-basketball toss concession and raised money for his Eagle Scout project Ð constructing basketball courts behind the Horicon Town Hall. Among exhibiting at the fair were the Schroon LakeNorth Hudson Snowmobile Club as well as the North Warren Trailblazers Snowmobile Club, both displaying the new sleds featured in their respective raffles. The Trailblazers also offered clothing and collectibles emblazoned with their logo, as did the Chester Volunteer Fire Department. Fairgoers were fascinated with an exhibit by Mike Prescott of Chestertown, who talked of how politicians once sought to dam up the Schroon River, which would have submerged much of the region under a giant reservoir. The Friends of Chester Library hosted an exhibit with antique equipment for making paper by hand. The Horicon Historical Society and various churches were represented with historical displays. Greg Beckler split geodes for people, explaining the multi-colored crystals revealed, while his son Bryan melted glass to create pendants and shot glasses. Fishing guide Chris Stiles tied flies while outdoor enthusiasts watched. North Warren Art Teacher Erica Leonard manned a stu-
dent art display, while her teen artists browsed at the fair. At another booth, artist Fred Holman of the art in Chester Gallery painted the fairgrounds as passersby watched. Nearby, Sandra Weber of Elizabethtown signed her books detailing the lives of prominent Adirondack women. She had portrayed one of them, Jean Robert Foster, in the earlier parade. In a booth not far away, Wayne Bukovinsky manned a booth selling hats, mugs and other collectibles for the charity he founded, the North Country Hardship Fund. Horicon Town Board member Matt Simpson, on the event-planning committee, watched the fair crowd, moving among the various booths. Ò We had no idea it would turn out like this,Ó he said, noting that Chester and Horicon might collaborate more often on holding events. Ò IÕ ve never seen anything similar around here in my lifetime.Ó Fellow board member Bob Olsen offered a similar comment. Ò This proves the two towns can come together Ñ and accomplish something incredible.Ó Sylvia Smith, who cochaired the event with Nancy Tennyson, said she had worked around the clock for
Adirondack Journal - 17 two weeks making sure all the details were in place. At the event, she deferred credit to Tennyson and their committee. Ò This is so awesome Ð itÕ s what we hoped and dreamed it would be,Ó she said. Smith and Tennyson had hired a strong lineup of bands and entertainment from Vermont and Quebec. Performers included Adirondack singer and songwriter Christopher Shaw, as well as the Dixie Six Dixieland Band from Burlington Vt. Musical groups that featured North Warren High School alumni included the Hudson Creek Band with Zach Smith and Matthew

This latter group closed out the festivities at night, singing through the finale of fireworks, that Smith said later was the most extensive aerial show she had ever experienced. She reported that acres of people filled up the huge Old Pottersville Fairgrounds, unused for a generation. Ò The skies of Pottersville were lit up like never before,Ó she said, noting she had drooped into the arms of her cousin and cried with joy and relief when the festival concluded.

Reserve now for tour of historical homes
August 31, 2013
Lake George mayor seeking sponsorships for ‘Festival of the Lake’
ATHOL Ñ The John Thurman Historical Society is now accepting reservations for its tour of historical local homes set for Saturday Sept. 14. The event begins with an 11:45 a.m. lunch at Thurman Town Hall and continues with a caravan of cars to four historic Thurman sites where tours and talk will be conducted. Featured on this yearÕ s tour will be the sites known as the Amos Bowen home, the William. J. Baker farm, the Chloe Pike farm and the Steve Wood Farm. Those participating are urged to reserve early. The cost of the event is $20 per person, or $13 without lunch. The tour leaves Thurman Town Hall at 12:45 a.m. and returns at 4 p.m. For details call: 623-9305 or see: www.persisgranger.com.
LAKE GEORGE Ñ Many large community events have been established in the village of Lake George in recent history Ñ and Mayor Robert Blais is now launching the Festival for the Lake, with proceeds to benefit the ecological health of the waterway that has attracted millions of people over those years. Faced with the enormous task of curbing invasive species in Lake George, Blais is asking all the events who have benefited from the lake and his community to come together for a huge annual Ò Festival for the Lake.Ó Scheduled for September 27, 28 and 29, it promises to be the areaÕ s largest event of its kind, combining local organizations, festivals and companies that have used Lake George as a base of operations. The Mayor has reached out to many groups that he believes will entice visitors and residents alike to attend the festival. Portions of Canada St. and Beach Road downtown will be closed to accommodate a craft show, live music, a food court, petting zoo, hot air balloons, amusement rides and pedi-cab races. There will also be fireworks, boat rides, parasailing and pony rides scattered about the village. The weekend is highlighted by two stages featuring live music both in Shepard Park and Blais Park. Opening the festival on Friday at 4 p.m. will be singer-songwriter Rich Ortiz as well as the locally-based Stony Creek Band, celebrating their 40th Anniversary together. SaturdayÕ s music features the Out of Control Rhythm & Blues Band, Bluz House Rockers and the Big Block Blues Band. Jonathan NewellÕ s Band is featured on Beach Road.
Thurman women take a break from food preparations at the Wm. J. Baker home during a haying bee in the 1950s. The John Thurman Historical Society is holding a guided tour of the house plus four others on Saturday Sept. 14.
The various food choices include Chef Dave BritonÕ s Pie on Wheels, a chicken barbecue and BarnsiderÕ s famous ribs. SaturdayÕ s events include a Ò MoonglowÓ hot-air balloon light-up and fireworks over the lake. Lake George Fire Department will host casino games in Shepard Park and the village’s first ever Moonlight & Glow 5k footrace will highlight Saturday night. Two tents will feature New York craft beers and wines sponsored by the Adirondack Brewery and Pub as well as the Adirondack Winery tasting room. Admission will be $10 for adults that will provide admission to the entire weekend of events Ñ and include one beverage. Blais said this week he has reached out to all companies that service lakeside businesses for sponsorships and participation. Ò Ben and JerryÕ s Ice Cream, who have stores in both communities have stepped up to become the major sponsor,Ó Blais said. Others like Pepsi-Cola, Alonzo Fireworks and the Lake George Steamboat Co. and Shoreline Cruises have also contributed, but Blais said far more is needed from the hundreds of local businesses. All proceeds will be donated to the S.A.V.E. the Lake initiative which is a collaborative task force to protect the lakeÕ s health. Lake George Village, the Town of Lake George and Warren County are all contributing Occupancy Tax funds to the festival, which is slated to be an annual event. To sign up for a sponsorship or to help the effort, call the village mayor’s office at 6685771.
