| Legend of Teal Creek | ||||||||
| Long ago, in the land of Kilowan, what is now Teal Creek was a huge rushing river, almost as wide as one could see. On its banks lived a large Indian tribe. The tribe was so large that there were two cheifs. Each of the chiefs had a son, and these boys were the best of friends. The two of them would often play and hunt together. One day, the two cheifs had a terrible fight and decided that they should split the tribe and one of them would move to the other side of the river. The two sons were saddened by their fathers' decision and by the thought of leaving each other. That night, they went to the edge of the river and prayed to Wokanda that some day he would give them a sign to be reunited. Together they threw a stone into the rushing river to seal the oath to some day see each other again. Many years went by while the two sons lived apart. After their fathers had passed away, and the sons had become chiefs, Wokanda sent them a sign. The rushing Teal River began to shrink and shrink until it became the size it is now. And the two sons built a bridge where Pooh Bridge stands today and met in the middle. Then they tossed another stone into Teal Creek and prayed to Wokanda to keep the river the size it is now so that Kilowan would never by split in two again. | ||||||||
