Many, LA

[onemississipp]

Nolan's Trace, between Alexandria and San Antonio, parallels the

Natchitoches and San Antonio trace, four miles south. The great camp

ground at Fallen Springs, four miles south of Many, is still remembered

as the place where many murders and robberies were committed, and today

searchers come hither to explore for lost treasures. There is now in

possession of Leo Vandegaer, a part of a silver cross, found by W. G.

Lewing, four miles southeast of Many in 1888, and a part of a

counterfeiter's outfit found near Carter's Ferry some years ago. Where

the cross was found ruins of burned buildings are noticeable. On every

side souvenirs of Spanish occupation are brought to light, and as years

pass by history and fable people the Sabine Country with the extremes of

good and bad in the Spanish character.
