Joan Hayward

Joan Hayward retraces the story of the Burning Spring in Bristol from the time La Salle, the great French adventurer, was shown the "water that burns" by the Senecas in 1669. She tells of the period of gas well drilling, the celebration and pageant in 1937, and her recent revisitation to a favorite school picnic site. Mrs. Hayward supplied a copy of the commemorative program and narrative written by Alexander Stewart.
