Haunted Gavel for Champ Clark From Old Pike County Mill
In 1817 a mill stood on Peno Creek near its mouth in Pike County Me built by Enoca Matson grandfather of A P Matson. A dam apron log was partly cut by Matson and Warren Hatcher last year. The timber is sound and will become a gavel for Champ Clark to call Congress to order. The dam is said to be haunted and fish do not live in the water. An old tale says an Indian maiden fled with a white man, angering the chief who killed them and threw their bodies into the dam, a romance of love and revenge attached to the gavel’s history.
