Endless Entertainment, a An feerie Legend Did you know that General "Mad Anthony" Wayne's ghost has been said to be seen every New Year's morning, roaming the lower area of downtown Erie? In July of 1779, during the Revolution, Wayne led Ameri can troops in a surprise night attack, capturing the strongest British post on the Hudson River. To ensure surprise on the British, Wayne forbade his men from loading their weapons and instead, took the risk of leading his men in a silent charge of bayonets only. Due to his unruly risk-taking, he gained the nickname "Mad Anthony." On his way home from battle in Michigan in 1796, Gen eral Wayne grew ill and died in Erie. His body was buried be neath the blockhouse on Presque Isle State Park. However, in 1809, with complete disregard to the local residents' desire to keep his remains here, "Mad Anthony's" son, Isaac, dug up his father's remains in order to respectfully bury him in the Wayne's family plot at St. David's Cemetery in Chester County. In order to keep things civilized, Dr. James Wallace, un known to Isaac, boiled "Mad Anthony's" remains in a huge pot (on display at the Watson-Curtze Mansion Museum; sixth Street), separating the flesh and clothing from the bones. The flesh and clothing were reburied beneath the blockhouse on Presque Isle a the bones were give to Isaac to rebury at the Wayne's family plot at St. Davidt Cemetery in Chester County. Legend has it that while the wagon carrying "Mad Anthony's" bones traveled east, some of his bones fell out onto the road. Also, according to legend, local residents have claimed, to this very day, that every New Years' morning, Gen eral Wayne's ghost rises from his grave at St. David's and can be seen riding along downtown French Street in search for his missing bones.

Greatest Fudge Mix the cocoa and sugar together well until they are of a single consistency. In a double boiler, melt the butter and peanut butter together. Pour the melted mix into the howl with the sugar/ cocoa mix in it. Mix well (hut not with a mixer, but rather with your hands or a wooden spoon). Grease a 9 x 9 pan (or one of similar size). Place the fudge mixture into the pan and pat down until evenly distributed. Cut the fudge as desired (this is important to do before you go to the next step because it is not easy to cut after this point...) Place the fudge into the fridge until it is firm.
