Book Synopsis Around Momence by : Kevin Sr. McNulty
Download or read book Around Momence written by Kevin Sr. McNulty and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As evidenced by the historic record of Burt E. Burrough's book entitled Tales of an Old Border Town and along the Kankakee (1925), the city of Momence owes its origins to the flow of the Kankakee River through eastern Kankakee County. This diverse tributary linked marshy areas in Indiana to the adjacent fertile fields on the Illinois side. Momence became a beacon, providing traders with the latest conveniences and a break from the frontier. Years later, the historic Dixie Highway crossed the river at Momence, assuring a modern era for the city. In her writings of 1983-1984, the great educator and historian Kay Hess revealed the community spirit, entrepreneurial zeal, and celebratory nature of Momence through the many personalities of this rural city. Today, as Momence approaches its 200th year, massive urban sprawl promises to wash over this ever-changing community and add to its history.

Excerpt: ...the lodges informed the people whether the immediate vicinity was clear of any lurking emissaries of the foe. If it was found safe to do so, all the women and children of the village, when night had come, slipped out of the lodges without so much as a whisper. The burden, such as a bundle of clothing or an infant in its cradle, rested secure on the shoulders and neck, and was held in place by a band passing over the forehead. The limbs and body must be free. All ran to the landing where the overturned canoes were drawn up along the bank, and one by one, stepping on the fine hard gravel of a made beach, waded cautiously into deep water, swam very quietly through the lagoon that led off to the little river, rounded the bend, and glided away down stream. The Indian woman was the strongest and most adroit swimmer in all the world; the necessities of her life compelled such skill. But how was it possible for any human being to make progress through a water-course which, in some parts, was filled from bank to bank with entangling mosses reaching up to the very surface and waving with the current; or, in other parts, was nothing more than a wide bed of black mire with only a few inches of clear liquid shooting across its forbidding surface; or, in still other places, was too shallow for swimming, and yet with a bed of boiling quicksand where no living creature could walk? Such difficulties they had by no means lost sight of. A winding channel had been made through these obstructions, and this they had carefully kept open at all times.
