The Haunting

Thompson Island Bridge is said to be a favorite spot for the spirit of a Confederate soldier. His apparition, with his rifle, is said to appear more often before or during times of war. According to legend, the man lived in a nearby cabin and had made a promise with his brother that when they went off to fight in the Civil War, they'd return home, no matter what.

People say a rifle-carrying Confederate soldier appears more often before or during wartime. The brother-promise detail reads as legend and is kept separate from verifiable history.
