The Pine Barrens
 

C&P from an article I was reading this morning.....


Here's the testimony of E.W. Minster, as cited by
McCloy and Miller in The Jersey Devil:

I awoke about 2 o'clock in the morning, and finding myself unable to sleep,
I arose and wet my head with cold water as a cure for insomnia.
As I got up I heard an eerie, almost supernatural sound from the direction
of the river. I looked out upon the Delaware and saw flying diagonally
across what appeared to be a large crane, but which was emitting a glow like
a firefly.

Its head resembled that of a ram, with curled horns, and its long thick neck
was thrust forward in flight. It had long thin wings and short legs, the
front legs shorter than the hind. Again it uttered its mournful and awful
call-a combination of a squawk and a whistle, the beginning very high and
piercing and ending very low and hoarse.

Cut it out, man. I don't live far from the Pineys. Yer ascaring me.

This aint nothing.....

I got some fresh stuff from down there......

Neat and spooky place.......
