Description From Owner:
  • The place was named for an incident around 1860 when woods workers heard a strange howling at sundown after burying a stranger who had been killed by the camp cook.
  • The whooping was periodically heard by others at sundown until Father Edward Murdoch exhumed the body in 1912 and removed it for reburial at Renous.
