The
following is a report of the myesterious events and happenings
that surround the Burkholder cemetery.
"There
are tales of a queer light that used to run along the ridge of
the old church roof before a death. Sometimes it would float away,
until it rested over the house that contained the doomed occupant.
They
also had one instance of a grave robbing by a local pioneer doctor
who needed a skeleton. He was found out by a servant girl, who
told of suspicious pieces of flesh being boiled in the huge wash-boiler
in the doctor's home. At a subsequent tea meeting in the house,
that same boiler was used to make tea."
