In the history of East Mountain there are several colorful incidents,
and several major steps in its final development. The bare story of this
community’s development is intensely interesting to its present day
citizens. It is interesting to go back to when your grandfather and his
companions blazed the first trails, when deer, fox, turkey, and other
wild game were plentiful, and when the Indians held their pow-wows on
the summit of the picturesque little mountain.
