Iwli Poole’s Woods By Carolyn Ritchie Mr. William R. Poole, a promi nent Wake County citizen, once owned a 1600-acre tract of land about five miles east of Raleigh, Most of the land was covered with dense woods. A lover of nature, Mr. Poole rode a handsome white horse through his forest, person ally supervising the care of the trees. In the last terrible days of the Civil War, as Yankee troops moved through the South,’ destroying or taking almost anything of value, a group of blue-coated soldiers ap peared one day at Mr. Poole’s home. The visitors had heard that gold was buried on his property.’ ■ Mb. P'oole sat caltmly on Ms porch as his uninvited, guests de manded to know the location of his gold. When he refused to dis cuss the subject with them, they mounted him on a fence rail and rode him down the path to his corn imill. Mr. Poole watched as his mill went up in flames but still refused to talk. Finally, the sol diers began a random search of the woods. The searchers found no gold. However, Mr. Poole’s favorite white horse had been tethered in a clearing of one of the deepest areas of the forest. Hearing the Yankee horses, he whinnied and disclosed his hiding place. Mr, Poole watched sadly as his beloved white horse was ridden away by a stranger in a blue coat. Mr. Pole died in 1889 at the age of ninety-three. For fnany years after his death, due to certain pro visions of his will, a large sec tion of the forest which surround ed his grave remained untouched by axe or saw. Meanwhile tales grew as tall as the trees. Many of those who ventured near the area came away to tell of a ghostly white horse and rider who moved through the dark recesses of the woodland. Foresters eventually moved into Poole’s Woods, gradually chopping away most of the ancient trees and scattering the woodland creatures. The land has been sold and re sold, divided and redivided. Streets and houses and power lines cover the area. About all that re main to remind one of the past are Mr. Poole’s tombstone and the stories. block building had an actual cost of $2282.23, but some labor and materials were donated and the paint and painting was provided by the Wake .County Schools.

Carl Sandburg’s death made me feel as if I’d lost a friend, even though I only met him once, about ten years ago. I was flying from Greensboro to Asheville with my college room mate, and our plane was ground ed in Charlotte. A handful of dis gruntled passengers stood around the ticket counter wondering what to do next. One of the passengers, an old man with a shock of snow- Child Care Nursery Open Under New Management Shady Lawn Nursery is now un der new management of Mrs. Max ine King.

We went over, in troduced ourselves, and asked if he were going to Asheville, too. He seemed amused and delighted, and told us his home was in Flat Rock. Then, of course, we knew who he was and why his face was fa miliar. The airline arranged for a lim ousine to drive us to Asheville. There were six passengers: Mr. Sandburg, a middle-aged woman clutching a purse, umbrella, shop ping bag, and other assorted para- phanalia; a salesman sporting a thin mustache and a shiny blue suit; another college girl, my roommate, and myself. The four hour trip seemed like minutes, with the famous poet entertaining us all with his delightful yarns and quick wit. We even sang for awhile. Mr. Sandburg’s favorite song was “Sweet ’Violets”, and he led his off-key minstrels through several rollicking choruses. When we stopped for lunch in Forest City, he introduced the three students as a trio of singers, and an article in the local paper next day said, “He was traveling with a group, some of whom were singers .ifnom Flat Rock.” For tunately, the reporter did not in clude the outlandish names he had given us. It was a thrilling experience, and I’ll always remember Carl Sandburg, not only as a great poet, but as one of the warmest, wittiest, and most delightful men I’ve ever met. The fact that silence is golden may explain why there’s so little of it. »••••« O.K., We^ve Got It! What appears to be a fast sequence of pictures is a little camera trickery (hit upon by accident).
