[Folklore Chief Tells Tales
Of Loyalsock Lumber Drives
Historians of the Loyalsock Val.
ley like Major Bowles, Fred Cole- | ‘Roaring Joe’ was out as he had’
man, and Bill de Lancey, are fond
of telling old tales of the Three
Musketeers of the ‘Sock,’ ‘Roar.ng
Joe’ Campbell, ‘Lost’ Connors, and
Bob Gable, ‘the giant of Hensler-
town,’ a trio of favorite woodsmen
employed by Ario Pardee whose
0g drives eventually took every-
thing from a spar to a toothp.ck
down the turbulent stream.
‘Roaring. Joe’ was the highest
paid woods boss in Pardee’s em-
ploy, receiving $3,000 a year, while
Connors and Gable received almost
as much. “There must be a head
to everything,” said Pardee, em-
phatically, in his office at Hills-
grove, “and Roaring Joe is the
ooss of all my 20 splash dams.”
H. W. Shoemaker, chef of the
Folklore Division, Pennsylvania
Historical and Museum Commis-
sion, tells these tales of the Loyal-
sock lumber drives:
“In the log driving season, about
1880, Pardee arrived at the Slot,
the narrowest part of the Loyal-
sock, where the stream rusnes
straight down hill for a mile be-
tween ledges of rock, several hun-
dred feet. high, a Pennsylvania
counterpart of the Au Sable Chasm
in New York State. There was a
rafting flood and the rafts for the
mills at Loyalsockville and Mon-
toursville were given the right of
way before Pardee’s friendly rival
woods bosses let loose their
splashes, each determined to be
the . first in Pardee's basin at
‘Montour.’
“There was another sort of riv-
alry between two of the mighty
jam crackers. Connors and Gable
Yoth were paying court to old Gid
Brownaway's gal, Sal, whose cabin
was at the foot of Indian Rock.
She had intimated she might

a wife and kids, but Connors and
Gable were keen competitors for
the smiles of the Indian-looking,
blackeyed, little beauty.
“Out of Roaring Run came
‘Roaring Joe's splash, most of the
logs standing on end in their fury
like wild horses out of a corral,
to be first in the main torrent,
then from Three Runs came Con-
nors’ drive, he was a true leader
in the water, though he got his
name from being lost in the woods
a hundred times, and out of Salt
Run swept Gable's mighty splash,
“At the Slot, where all these
fierce impetuous streams come to-
gether at Wallis’ Run before they
hit the Main ‘Sock,’ the three driv-
ers came ‘head on’ at Elephant
rock with a crash and a roar that
only a million feet of logs, three
layers deep can make. Yet the
three intrepid. Jam Crackers, and
their helpers, were on top of it
all, jumping from upright log. to
upright leg, their peaveys and jam
pikes gleaming in the frosty air of
early fall.
“Over and over they went, the
huge sticks of white pine, spruce,
and hemlock seeming to enjoy the
turmoil like they were race horses
at the barrier and as they came
out of the Slot it was hard to tell
who was ahead. Every crew was
intact, not a soul had gone down
in that great pell mell
“On the cliff at Indian Rock
stood the imperturbable Pardee,
his long white hair blowing out
from under his ten gallon hat,
looking more like a preacher than
a financier, church builder, and
benefactor of schools and colleges.
Beside him were his pal woods-
man, Robert McEwen, and the
veteran driver, Hughie Dewar, also
Gid Brownaway's gal, her parents
and brothers and sisters, and her
grandfather.
“At Loyalsockville the three
Musketeers were abreast. At the
mouth of Fairfield Run it was still
anybody's race, but there a raft
had snagged and the others ‘pack-
saddled it,” making a barrier which
piled up the log drives into a
solid barrier.
“Here ended the log driver's
race for supremacy, and the ‘Three
Musketeers’ and their gangs un-
wound themselves as best they
could from the confusion of up-
ended, swaying logs, and tangled
driftwood. The hand of Gid Brown-
away's Sal was still ungiven,
though both her lovers came out
of the fierce melee with scarcely
a bruise. It took all fall and all
winter to open a channel, and get
the timber to the Montoursville
Mills, hundreds of teams of horses
being required inthe operation
and Sal was worn to a shadow by
the long uncertainty. ‘Lost’ Con-
nors was a little ‘chunky’ man,
Gable was a giant, how could she
choose? Gable suggested a foot-
race just before log driving season

Gable could not find a horse big
enough when a horse race on the
ice was suggested. A modest trou:
