Going north from Bristol Cave, the trail climbs steeply and swings to the south along the top of the cliffs where an excellent view is available. After some time, the trail dips about twenty feet to the openings of the Shed Caves. From these, the trail leads straight down to the old road about one-hundred yards beyond the first turn off.
A few yards below the Shed Caves, is the left fork of the original hiking trail. The left fork can be followed back along the ledge to the point below Bristol Cave. Along the way, the entrance to the Barrel Cave is passed. This is a tubelike opening two feet in diameter located seven feet above the trail. After passing through this very narrow tube for eighteen feet, a large room appears. In the large room, the remains of a limestone
94
stalactite can be seen, which was long ago broken off and carried away.
Much of the above information was com- piled from a pamphlet called "Hiking Trails, Bristol, Vermont" written by John R. Burbank in 1965 for The Bristol Area Chamber of Com- merce.
Bristol Veterans' Memorial Park
At Town Meeting in 1959, the citizens of Bristol voted to establish a war memorial to the Bristol veterans of World War II and the Korean Conflict. The Selectmen appointed a committee consisting of B. W. Estey, Neil Frink, Henry Gurley, Graham Palmer, Jean Kenyon (Palmer), Carl Nelson, and Dorothy Purinton (Trudo). Later Donald James, Roland James, and William Wisell were added to the com- mittee. Neil Frink served for several years as chairman of the committee and later Dorothy Trudo served as chairman.
In the following years, approx- imately twenty-four acres surrounding Burnham Falls on Baldwin Creek in the northeast corner of Bristol were ac- quired. The land immediately surround ing the Falls was donated by Dr. Daniel Birdsall of Scranton, Pennsylvania. The park is located five miles east of Bristol on Route 17, the Mccullough Turnpike.
Construction of picnic areas, paths, stairs, and a bridge across the chasm was completed. A handsome sign designed, executed, and donated by Bristol artist Jack Wendel was hung at the entrance. It reads "Memorial Forest Park." A stone monument designed by Roland James was erected to which was attached a bronze plaque with an inscription composed by Neil Frink, early chairman of the park com- mittee. The inscription reads: "This area has been set apart by the people of Bristol to honor those who served and perpetuate the memory of those who sacrificed their lives in World War II and the Korean Conflict. A living memorial dedicated to the use of future generations as a continuing symbol of the gratitude of a free people. Erected 1966." After nine years of work, the park was proudly dedicated on September 11, 1966.
Lake Winona (Bristol Pond)
Lake Winona which is located at the base of Hogback Mountain about three miles north of the Village played an important part in the early history of Bristol. Undoubtedly of glacial origin, it now covers approximately two-hundred acres, but at a much earlier period of geological history it must have been one of the larger and deeper lakes in this section of the state. Proof of this is found in the extensive swamp and marsh, bounding the lake on three sides, which was at one time part of the pond and must have added several hundred acres to its area. Vegetable matter has washed from the nearby hills until the basin is nearly filled with it. The east side, unlike the other three sides, is bounded by a hard sandy beach back of which stands a growth of hard wood.
This pond was evidently a favorite haunt of Indians long before the town was settled by white men. Arrow and spear heads have been found here to prove that they used it as a hunting ground and pieces of pottery have been discovered to show that a group of them must have lived here.
Lake Winona, better known to local residents as Bristol Pond, has always been frequented by fishermen. Northernpike or pickerel, bull pouts, perch, and an abundance of sun fish are found here. Several years ago a col- ony of beavers came from parts unknown and built a dam at the outlet near the Bristol-Monkton town line, thus increasing the depth of water in the whole pond by nearly two feet. As soon as the food supply was exhausted, the beavers moved further down stream and the dam soon gave way. Several public-spirited citizens con- tributed their services, rebuilding the dam in a permanent form. After the beaver colony moved, it seems evident that a branch established itself at a smaller pond in the south part of the town, known as Gilmore Pond. This early information was written by Henry Harvey for the first edition of this history.
For many years, the A. Johnson Company of Bristol, cut lumber off the east or mountain side of the lake. This necessitated building good logging
roads to the pond both from the north and south. The road from the north was the old county road. The A. Johnson Company has since sold this land.
Building lots have been sold on the east side of the pond and presently there are about five camps in the area. There are no electric power or telephone lines to these camps. The Vermont Fish and Game Service built an access road to the lake so that boats can be launched. A small rock dam was built within the last ten years so the level of the pond remains more con- stant.
The name of Bristol Pond was changed to Lake Winona by act of the state legislature. Truman Varney, who resided on the present Francis Heffer- nan farm, represented Bristol in the Vermont State Legislature. He had the bill enacted to change the name to Lake Winona in honor of his grand- daughter Winona Mayer (Austin) whom he and his wife raised. The act became effective February 17, 1931, but the pond is still known to local residents by its original name.
Burnham's Falls and Drake Woods
Burnham's Falls, in Drake Woods, is also a point of interest. Orin Burnham owned and operated one of the early forges in Bristol just above these falls. This forge did not do well and Mr. Burnham became depressed; he committed suicide by jumping over the falls which have been known ever since as Burnham's Falls.
There was at that time no road through Drake Woods and the ore, which was mined in Crown Point, New York, was drawn by ox team over a long road which wound around through Starksboro before reaching the forge. At last a road was opened through these woods and there is a story that to celebrate this event Mr. Drake, the proprietor of a public house on the Starksboro road adjacent to the newly opened road, gave a party to which he invited the public. Here rum flowed freely and before the night was over the merrymakers had thrown Mr. Drake into the firepiace fortunately without causing him any harm. It was
95
due to this celebration, so generously provided by Mr. Drake, that this sec- tion received the name of Drake Woods.
Bartlett's Falls
Bartlett's Falls is located on the road to Lincoln not far from the turn off of Route 116 east. The area around the falls was owned by the Central Ver- mont Public Service Corporation for many years. They had an electric plant farther down the river, but the dam and wheelhouse were located at Bartlett's Falls. The company stopped running the plant because of low water in the summer and over-aged equip- ment. Since that time, the Falls have
become a favorite swimming hole and picnic area for local residents. The cool, clear waters of the New Haven River collect in a deep pool and then run on down the river.
Chain Saw Sculptures
In front of 34 Pleasant Street in Bristol Village, is a large tree trunk with a winking owl carved into it. This chain saw sculpture was done in 1973 by three Lincoln residents, Jeremy Perfect, Steve Halnon, and Don Rivait. They felt if this tree stump was too large to be cut for firewood and was to be left there, then it should become more decorative. With chain saw and chisel, they went to work and
within one day produced the winking owl.
Three years later, in 1976, Jeremy Perfect was asked by the Corkins brothers, owners of the Exxon Station on West Street, to do a carving for them. The large tree stump at the cor- ner of their station property has a tiger, the Exxon trademark, carved into it. Mr. Perfect did this chain saw sculpture by himself over a period of three days. This one is signed in the lower corner "Jeremy." Many visitors to Bristol have taken pictures of the Exxon tiger. These two chain saw sculptures by local craftsmen will be enjoyed by many for years to come.

XXI Epilogue
In conclusion ... who can foresee what the future of Bristol will be ... as in the early 1880's, some local residents popularized the idea that the world was coming to an end. People reacted dif- ferently to this announcement in Bristol. As the story goes, one lady sewed a pair of bloomers to wear under her long dress so that when she "was carried up" she would not be embar- rassed. A grocery store owner in town told people to come to his store and take anything they wanted because he wouldn't be needing it when the world ended the next day. On the following day when the world did not end, this merchant tried to "collect." His customers of the previous day did not oblige. A resident of Bristol Flats awoke in the middle of the night on the date the world was to come to an end amazed to see the sky in the north aglow. Surely the prediction had come true. However, he was relieved to learn later that the glow came from a neighbor's livery stable which was ablaze! It is doubtful the neighbor was relieved This tale was related by a current local resident.

XXIII Veterans' Lists
Introduction
The following veterans' lists were taken from various sources. The Civil War list was obtained from H. P. Smith's History of Addison County and from gravestones in Greenwood Cemetery. The records of the Grand Army of the Republic were burned so the list may be incomplete. This list was included in the 1940 edition of this history.
The Spanish-American War veterans' list includes simply those men known to have served. There may be others but there were no records ob- tainable. This list appeared in the 1940 edition of this history.
The World War I veterans' list was copied directly off the bronze tablet on the memorial rock on the Village Park. The tablet was placed there by Bristol Post #19 American Legion. The bottom line of the tablet reads, "Their Name Liveth for Ever More."
The World War II veterans' list was copied off a photograph of the original Honor Roll erected in front of Holley Hall by Post #19. We hope it is complete.
The Korean Conflict veterans' list was obtained from the State of Ver- mont Veterans' Affairs Office. The war dates of the Korean era are June 27, 1950 to January 21, 1955. It was pointed out by the Veterans' Affairs Office that sometimes R.F.D. ad- dresses are confused with home towns and also career people are not in- cluded.
The Vietnam Era veterans' list was obtained from the Veterans' Affairs Office as well. The war dates ap- plicable here are August 5, 1964 to May 7, 1975.
