SRICK HOUSE CREEK, HOW PIRATE TOM JOHNSON AND #13 GHOST MADE IT FAMOUS,

no Adventure of Jaac Spraag, tbe Dare- devil of Hungry lsrbor — A Legend of Long Island—The Days When Freeboot-

ers Were Honored Clitizons,

IT» those early days when pirating wasn in which men of standing in the pomanunily engaged, either openly or coy

ertiy, there were some queer and startling

t=ndo

happenings slong the south const of Long | More thanacentury ago the legend |

Island. of Brick House ereek was an heirloom in the vicinity ef Babylon. It had come down from generation to generation tn company with the story of Deacon Tribulation Smith's conquest of Tackapausha, the Mersapeague sachem,

It was in South Jerusalem that Thomas Johnson, more familiarly known as ‘‘old Colenel Tom,’’ built the first brick house on Long Island, whieh was then called Mattowaes, This brick house stood on the best farm on the island, and im subsequent years it came to be regarded with a feeling of awe by the Dutch residents of that region. ‘Old Colonel Tom’’ was a man of unquestioned prestige in the community. He enjoyed the respect and homage of his neighbors besanse he insisted upon it. In the pichuresqne cove at the mouth of Brick House creek lay a stanch clipper built schooner, carrying a six pounder, a maga- vine of ammunition and a rack of cut- lasses. This clipper built schooner made occasional trips out into the ocean, and its return was invariably followed by neigh- horly fastivities in honor of ‘told Colonel Jom's’’ prowosss and increasing prosperity. On such oecusions the hardy crew of the little schooner would bring out their cut- lasses and scour off certain dark spots with more or less ostentation.

‘There were honest and pious people on the island of Mattowacs in those days, but none was disposed to criticise the doings of his neighbor, especially the doings of such a neighbor as ‘‘old Colonel Toim.”’ The trade of ‘‘water merchant’’ was re- garded by popular sentiment as leniently as iniractions of the excise law are now. In Smith's ** History of New York’? may be found this paragraph: ‘*It is certain that the pirates were supplied with provi- sions by the people of Long Island, who for many years afterward were so infatu- ated with the potion that members of that guild buried great quantities of monoy along the coast that there is scarce a point of land on theisland without the marks of their ‘auri sacra fames.’ Some credu- lous people have ruived themselves by these researches, and they propagated a thousand idle fables, current to this day among our country farmers.”’

The same historian is authority for the statement that ‘‘many worthy gentlemen”’ of that early period invested much prop- erty in divers small craft—i. e., brigan- tines and cutters, wherewith they scoured the sea, paying visits unto other vessels and carrying on a general trade after a very insistent and wholesale fashion. It is a matter of wholesale record that Cap- tain Kidd had for his associates Lord Chancellor Somers, the Duke of Shrews- bury, the earls of Romney and Oxford and otber equally illustrious individuals.

Tradition bas it that ‘‘old Colonel Tom”’ grew eruel and bloodthirsty, and ‘‘the re- lation of his deeds made people shudder to bear,’’ and when he died the old brick house and Brick House creek seemed to become bewitched. On stormy nights the ghost of the dead pirate held high carnival in the house. The window of his bedroom was always open. No earthly hand could close it. Every Saturday night the waters of Brick House creek emitted sulpburous lights and odors, and if any foolhardy fish- erman chanced to hook a fish in that creek on Saturday ‘there would be a low, rum- biing noise, a simell of sulphur, and the fishermman’s boat would be cast high and dry on the bank.”’

Jaac Spraag, the daredevil of Hungry harbor, laid a wager of a quart of rum with Bon Storer that he would go eeling alone in Brick House ereek on a certain Saturday night. Jaac’s Aunt Chastity endeavored to dissuade him, but he shook her off and said ‘‘he'd be hanged if he wouldn't like to come across ‘vid Colonel Tom.''’' Jaac went. His neighbors and his frantic wife searched for him all day and all night Sunday, and it was not un- til daybreak on Monday that they found bim lying unconscious in the bottom of bis skiff, which was high and dry on a oltff a mile away.

When he came to himself, Jaae told amid shudders and moans of a horrible ex- perience. He had met the ghost of old Cvulonel Tom and had been taken out to gew On a specter pirate ship. The fiendish ghest had compelled him to slay old people in cold blood and torture and mutilate children. Finally he rebelled at some atrocious command, and the pirate’s ghost summoned four devils with wings of blue flame, who threw hin into his skiff and bore him to the cliff where he was found.

Jaac Spraug lived for many years in Jerusalem South after that eventful night, and he told his story over and over again, never varying it as to details. His ochil- dren repeated the narrative, and their chil- dren and grandchildren told it after them. Thus was perpetuated the legend of Brick House creek.—New York Times.
