Jk Thrilling Episode on the Mo
nongahela River.
I am .fifty years old now, hale and
strong, but not the vigorous man I
was at the *ime of tbe events de
scribed in this story. I was reared
on the Monongahela river. My ear
liest employment was on that stream.
I was a ferryman, a fisherman, a
boatman, a raftsman, and certainly
a swimmer—eveiything that did not
call me away from the river. When
the United States declared war
against Mexico I enlisted at Pitta
burg in the Second Pennsylvania
Begiment, aDd went. I passed
through General Scott's campaign
v ith l>ut one slight wound, and it
was an advent uie 1 had near the
City of Mexico after the fighting
was over, that resulted, strange as
it may seem, in a big swim in the
Monongahela two years afterward.
One day, while we were quartered at
Buvcan, seven miles from the con
quaied capital. 1, being a sergeant,
was ordered to take a file of men
aud pursue a reck lefs character,
named M'Cutcbin, who bad escaped
from the guard bouse and fled to
ward the city. lie was one of tlie
worst men in the regiment, and had
lately been confined in the guard
house to await trial by court mar
tial on a charge of murderous as
sault ou a superior officer. We
caught sight of the fugitive befor e
we had gone half tbe distance to the
city, and he immediately left the
road ar.d plunged into adense thick
et of a square mile in extent. We
immediately scattered through the
bushes in puisnit, and five minutes
latei ! came upon him hiding in a
very thick clump of the chaparal. I
expected he would run for it 011
leii g discovered, but to my surprise
he sprang out and rushed upon me
like a tiger, flourishing a large knife.
I had barely time to club my musk
et when he was within two feet of
me, and had he been one second
sooner he certainly would have stab
bed me. But with one blow from
the butt of my musket I felhd him,
and immediately called for my com-
I anions. They were both within
heaiing, and soon at the spot.
"Here he is, boys," I said. "The
rascal made an assault on me with
his knife, and I knocked him down.
Watcn him. Where is that knife?"
4 'Here it is," said one of the boys,
lacking it up.
M'Cutchin had now got upon bis
feet a: d was rubbing bis head, eve
ry now and then scowling upon me
in a very terrible manner.
4 *Oh, I*ll pay you for this!" he
finally said.
"M'Cutchin," said I, "in arrest
ing you. I simply obej'ed orders, and
in knocking you down I simply act
ed in self-defense. You know you
attempted to kill me with that knife.
Xowl want none of your threats,
or I'll make your case worse than it
is. March liim to camp, boys."
We proceeded to camp, the despe
rate prisoner all the while glaring
upon me like a demon, and repeat
ing muttered threats. lie was a
very wicked and revengeful man.
lie was soon after court-martialed
and sentenced to wear a ball and
chain about his ankh for one month
ard after that to be dismissed from
the army in disgrace, forfeiting all
his back pay. So two months later
lie was put on board a transport at
Vera Cruz and sent to New Orl ans.
During the second summer after
my leturn to the United States I
was employed as mate of a steam
boat on the Monongahela. She was
a light draught boat called the
Merry, and as the water did not
usually fall low till late in August,
we plied between Pitteburg and
New Geneva nearly all summer—the
distance being one hundred miles.
Occasionally, when there was any
considerable rise in the river, we
ran up to Morgaotown, W. Ya.,
twenty miles above New Geneva.
One rainy evening, when we ar
rived at New Geneva, we found the
water high enough for a venture to
Morgantown, and the captain decid
ed to run up.
Just before we left the landiog a
strange man came aboard, stating to
the clei k that he wished to take a
deck passage to Pittsburg, and ask
ing permission to remain on the
boat while running up to Morgan
town and back, that he might at
once "turn in," and have an un
broken night's sleep, to which the
clerk assented, the passenger paying
is fare to Pi' tslvirg. I
He was a rough looking man,
with a sandy ueard that "Covered
three-fourths of his face. However,
I paid but little attention to liim,
and he soon passed aft to where the
freight was stored and the deck
hands slept.
Our boat steamed up tho river a
little before dark, and we passed tbe
mouth of the Oheat river just as
wight fairly set in—which it did in
terrible earnest. Tbe clouds thick
ened up, the rain came down in tor
rents, and I never before or siuce
saw a night so intensely dark. The
Merry could hardly proceed far with
out running iiground, for the tall
shores entirely disappeared from
view in the awful gloom ; but tbo
doors of tlie furnace were thrown
open and tbe blazing Are under the
boilers shed a dim light ahead,
which enabled the pilot to pick his
way along for a time, by running
very slowly.
We bad gone about two miles
above tbe mouth of the Cheat river,
when, descending from the cabin
deck by means of a very, narrow
flight of steps on the larboard side,
I saw our deck passenger skulk
away from the foot of the stairs and
pass into tbe quarters aft, as though
to escape observation. As he did so
I caught a brief glimpse of bis face—
for the light of a lamp at one of the
engines shone on it—and it immedi
ately struck me that it was not un
familiar. A moment later, while I
stood pondering, the face reappeared
at the door, and the deck passenger
stepped outf saying, in a low tone :
"Do you know me ?"
"I was just thinking I had seen
yon somewhere," I replied.
"Must I tell you my name ?" he
asked.
"Yes, I would like to know it.
The mysterious deck passenger
stepped closer to me, so that his
bearded face was within an inch of
my eai, and whispered, "M'Cutch
in."
I had scarcely time to think ere
he gave me a violent push with both
hands, and I fell backward from the
low deck into the river, immediate
ly forward of the crashing wheel.
A blow of one of its paddles would
have crushed me, but fortunately I
sank to the bottom and before 1 rose
to the surface the wheel had passed
over me. 1 shall never forget the
sensations produced by the thund
ering of the paddles over my head
and the rushing and bubbling of the
muddy watei about my ears.
My plunge into the water had
been so entirely unexpected that I
stranded badly at first, but being
one of the best of swimmers I soon
recovered, rested upon the surface
with but little exertion, and began
to deliberate at to what I was going
to do with myself. The clatter of
paddles, rapidly receding from me,
reminded me, that I ought to make
some effort to attract the attention
of those on the boat, and I shouted
with all my might, but to no pur
pose ; and the faint lights that peep
ed from the after cabin soon disap
peared beyond a bend in the river, a
little way above.
The rain was pouring down, and
the darkness so intense that I strain
ed my eyes in vain to catch the out
lines of the tall bills against the
sky. The heavens themselves were
as black as the rushing river. Noth
ing was to be seen; I could only
feel; and it may be relied on that I
felt very uncomfortable. The water
was not decidedly cold, but it was
much too cool when taken in such
quantities.
But I was too familiar with the
water to be easily daunted, and al
though I could not say with Byron
that I was a "child of the ocean,"
I deemed myself, at least, as near a 8
a brother-in-law to the Mononga
hela river. So I struck out vigor
ously for—what ? Shore ? Well,
yes. I bad some vague notion of
getting to shore before morniDg, but
how was Ito get there ? In which
direction should I swim ? For the
life of me—and that life was at
stake—l could not guets in what di
rection either shore lay. So I struck
out at random. There was a strong
current in the river, but as I moved
along with it, I had no means of
calculating its course, Still, 1
swam away through the black tor
rent, confident, that I must eventu
ally reach one shore or the other.
When I had swam at least four
times the width of the river 1 lay-to
a moment, and again endeavored to
pierce the awful gloom, but in vain.
My eves actually pained and head
throbbed witn the effort. It was so
perfectly dark that I remember
wandering if it ever could grow
light again. There was no means
of ascertaining where the shore was
and I endeavored more than once to
"touch bottom" with my toes, but
in vain.
I then struck out again, and after
swimming with all my might for
ten or fifteen minutes, I began to
be tired, and became really alarmed.
Suppose whole hours should pass,
and I should still be unable to dis
cover the shore or strike it by ac
cident ?
The danger of my situation now
burst upon me, with bewildering
force, and I felt that my strength
was failing. I grew impatient and
angry, and began beating the cruel
waters iu my frenzy, and screaming
loud curses against tho murderous
whose revengeful spirit
had prompted him to hurl me into
this fearful peril.
Presently I heard the rippling of
water near me, and, thinking it was
tho cur rent flowing among the rocks
or bushes at the shore, I struck oat
in the direction with new hope. I
put out my hand and struck some
thing solid. But it was not the
shore; It was a large snag that
barely peeped out of the wator.
Gladly accepting a respite, howevei,
I climbed upon it, almost exhausted
aud sat half immersed in water,
shivering, trembling, and wondtr
ing whether the morning would see
me alive.
The rain was still ponrlng dowa,
and I caught the glimmer of a faiut
flash of lightning, which was follow
ed by the low rumbling, of distant
thuuder. But the lightning was too
dim to reveal tbe hidden shore.
Presently I felt the snag sinking be
neath my weight-, aud I plartged
into the current again and resumed
my swimming—in what direction I
did not know.
At last, when I felt that I could
not stay up much longer, I caught a
glimpse of a light ta tbe distance.
It was evidently shining from a win
dow, and I was sure it must be on
shore; so, with new courage, I
steered for the light, which for the
first twenty five minutes seemed to
recede from me like an ignis fatuus.
But I persevered, determined to
strike as long as a muscle would
move, for I was swimming to some
purpose now. Ten minutes more,
and I fouod, that I was undoubted
ly nearing tbe light. Hope lent me
new strength and courage, and I
think that, exhausted though 1 had
recently felt, I now did such swim
ming as I had never done before.
Ten minutes more. I was rapid
ly neariog the light, when, to my
dismay, it suddeuly vanished. My
heart sank again ;p strength was
fast leaving me, and I was about to
go down with a half uttered prayer
on my lips, when my feet touched
the pebbly bottom, and I found my
self in shallow water. I stood up,
and with a tottering step, waded
out and found myself on shore. I
crawled up a steep and muddy bank
and for a few momwnts lay down al
most helpless.
The rain had abated somewhat,
though the darkness had not, but
presently a flash of lightning reveal
ed the whole scene to me—among
other objects, a little log house,, not
more than fifty yards distant. I
arose from the wet earth, and with
trembling steps went staggering to
ward the house. Another kindly
flash of lightning guided me to the
very door, at which I knocked with
out hesitation.
"\V ho's there ?" came from with-
"My name is M'Cann," I replied.
"I live at New Geneva, and am
mate of the Merry. I'fell off. and
have just swam ashore."
"But what was the steamboat
doing on Cheat river ?" asked the
man of the bouse, striking a light.
"Cheat river !" I exclaimed. "We
haven't been on Cheat river."
The door was cautiously opened,
and the farmer appeared, with a
candle m one hand and a gun in the
other.
"Oh, come in," he said, as he re
cognized me (for be had seen me be
fore), what's all this ?"
I tottered in and fell to the floor
exhausted. I must liave beeu a pic
ture to look at—with my wet and
muddy clothes, hair disordered, and
without hat or coat.
The farmer whose name was Da
vis assisted me to arise, aud gave
me a seat in an old-fashioned arm
chair.
"Dear me," I presently heard him
say in a low tone to his wife, who
came i.i from an adjoining room,
4 'l've often heard he drank too
much, poor feller, but I never
know'd he got on such terrible 'uns
as this."
But I soon convinced them that I
was not on a "terrible uu." A roar
ing wood fire was started in the huge
fire place, and some coffee made for
me, which I drank, and found my
self materially revived.
Then 1 told my story.
Mr. Davis* bouse stood on the
right bank of the Cheat river, a mile
from its junction with the Monon
gabela ; and it began to appear to
mind—and such was the fact—that
after having swam a couple of miles
down the Mooongahela, I had
varied the exercise, in the blind
night, by swimming a mile up the
Cheat river, and that against a
strong current. I presume that I
had first described the light shining
from Mr. Davis' window while still
floating in the Monongahela at the
mouth of its tributary.
Such was ray swim for life.
Not long after I had been pushed
from the deck of the Merry she ran
aground, as I afterwards learned,
and stuck till morning. M'Cutchin
the malevolent deck passenger,
thinking it a good opportunity to
escape, attempted to leap ashore ;
but the boat was not so near the
shore as he supposed, and ho landed
in the water, and was soon carried
beyond his depth by the swift cur
rent. Not being such a swimmer
as the mati he had endeavored to
murder on that dark night, he soon
sunk beneath the mnddy torrent—
and his body was found a few days
afterwards a shore distance below
Brownsville.
