BROGAN This was ths Putchmsn's csbln, A storm msde mo stop one sight. But never sgoin will I do it, For t sure got an awful fright. As tho wolveo shrieked out in the moonlight On Big Rock above tho sbsck, And ss sure ss there's God in heaven. The Dutchman was leading the pack. So we'll psck rigbi ou to my csbin, It's a little less than s mile; What, don't take stock in my story. For I see your incredulous smile; Well, psrtner, I surely can't blame you, For It sounds like a yen shee tsls. But all the old-timers will tell you Of the Dutchman of Steamboat Trail. Well, here we are at my cabin, And while we are brewing the tea, I'll tell you the tnle of the Dutchman, Who one time was neighbor to. me; It was years ago when, this district Had a name amongst seekers of gold. And s few lucky ones msde their fortunes, While most of us simply grew old. Dutch had a small placer prospect, Where Bulldog comes in from the . cast, Ho was scraping out only a living, But it troubled him not in the leaBt, As he thought he had a bonanza. And believed he would strike it some day, ' In that thought he wasn't peculiar, For most of us rcsson that way. For years he lugged his provisions On the steep miles of Champion paijs, And he always carried a picture, Of a fair-faced young Saxony lass, And he dreamed of the day when he'd strike it And prove up on his rich claim of love, When one day ho came with a letter, His lass had been taken' above. And from then on the Dutchman grew queer-like. And kept roaming the woods day and night, He told me he'd meet his lost sweet heart, When Big Rock was bathed in moon light. One day be returned with a wolf cub, And from then be would talk to no man. And soon left his claim and his cabin, And at nights with the wolf pack he ran, Oh lad, if you'd only have seen him When the moon lit up the Big Rock, A-towerin above the wolf pack; My God, but it gave me a shock; And the wolves .were all grouped around him. And his shrieks and their howls rent the air. As they bayed at the moon in the heavens. In their horrible animal prayer. And late in the winter we found him; A thing more like wolf then like man, And the wolves were all guarding liis ' body The wolf pack with which he ran. And I tell you, lad, it was some battle To get the poor Dutchman away, And give him a miner's location On the bench where his placer claim lay. And I hope he Is now with his sweet heart, For the Dutchman had never harmed ma'h, But God has some queer wsys of working But I guess He knows best his own plan; But the wolf psck still howls in the moonlight, And there's one note that towers above, It's a shriek and a cry that is human; It's the Dutchman crying out for his love. .
