Hauptbeschreibung


This
story is fiction for the authors convenience to weave an important lesson in
our time. Based upon a real lake crafted in a swamp many years ago, the
authors great great grandfather could have been one
of the horse-drawn scraper drivers. This lake provided water for a canal system
in the area before the railroads took over.

The
lake became a valuable source of clean water for the towns growing around it.
It also became important for recreation. But as the population grew,
vacationing at the lake brought about development of landings and vacation
homes, and the pressure on the ecology of the lake began to esculate.


The
public noticed the increased restrictions on the use of the lake. Finally, the
safety of the lake was threatened and our story is related.
