THE SITE OF THE SAMUEL HALDEMAN MANSION WAS ONCE AN INDIAN OR NATIVE AMERICAN VILLAGE FOR A TRIBE CALLED THE CANOI.  BEFORE THAT, THE SUSQUEHANNOK INDIANS LIVED THERE ALONG THE RIVER.  AFTER THE WHITE MAN CAME AND INFECTED THEM, KILLING MOST OF THEM OFF, THE REMAINDER MOVED NORTH AND THEN THE IRAQUOI INDAINS TOOK OVER AND MOVED THE CANOI ONTO THE LAND.  THEY LIVED THERE UP UNITL AROUND 1740.  THEN TWO OF THE STRUCTURES ON THE PROPERTY WERE PART OF A FRENCH TRADING POST BEFORE BEING SOLD TO THE GALBRAITH FAMILY.

THIS IS WHERE WE FOUND OURSELVES ONCE AGAIN THIS PAST SATURDAY NIGHT.  FRIENDS AND PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS CRAIG AND DON CAME DOWN TO INVESTIGATE AND WERE PROMPTLY IMPRESSED WITH LAND AND BUILDING.  THEY WENT THRU THE BUILDING WHILE DOUG AND I WERE SEEING TO OUR TENT OUTSIDE.  AS I EXITED THE TENT, I FELT A DIZZY FEELING AND STOPPPED.  i SAID TO DOUG, HOLD UP WE GOT SOMEBODY....  I GOT OUT MY EVP RECORDER AND STARTED ASKING QUESTIONS.  ONE OF THE FIRST WAS "ARE YOU PART OF A TRIBE, LIKE SUSQUEHANNOK?"  THE ANSWER WAS "YES....SUSQUEHANNA......." DID NOT HEAR THE "K" AT THE END, BUT MAYBE THAT WAS SILENT?  AND THAT IS WHERE WE GOT THE NAME FOR THE RIVER THAT RUNS PAST THE LAND, SUSQUEHANNA.  ANYWAY, THE NATIVE AMERICAN GUY BACKED OFF AFTER WE SAID WE WERE JUST STAYING THERE OVERNIGHT AND WOULD NOT DESECRATE THE LAND.  I THINK HE KNEW WE WERE OK.

SO WHILE THE OTHERS ARE INSIDE THE HOUSE, WE ARE GETTING LOUD EVP'S FROM THE YARD OUTSIDE!  THE FACT THAT A THUNDERSTORM HAD JUST COME THRU WAS PROBABLY THE REASON WE HAD SO MUCH ACTIVITY.  LATER IN THE MASNION, WE HEARD DOORS SLAM, PEOPLE TALKNIG AND ALL KINDS OF ANOMALIES.  AT ONE POINT UPSTAIRS, WE HAD NOT SEEN ANY ORBS ALL NIGHT, BUT WHEN WE WERE IN THE MASTER BEDROOM, THAT CHANGED.  DON SAID, "I HEAR A TRAIN COMING" AND THE THREE OF US IN THE ROOM ALL LOOKED OUT VARIOUIS WINDOWS.  I HAD PUT MY CAMERA DOWN FACING INWARD SO I COULD TAKE SOME UV/IR PICS AND WHEN I DID, IT PICKED UP A DOZEN OR SO ORBS FLYING AROUND BEHIND US!!!!  WHEN I SPIN AROUND, THEY ARE GONE!  THESE WERE NO DUST PARTICLES EITHER,  3 FLY STRAIGHT UP TOGETHER AND ONE CHANGES BRIGHTNESS.  SO WHEN YOU CAMP ON LAND THAT ONCE WAS HOME TO NATIVE AMERICANS, BE RESPECTFUL AND IT JUST MIGHT PAY OFF!
