This hay field is located near my home. The area is known as Fiddler's Hollow. During the Civil War the small town of Medora (now known as St. Aubert) was a Union army camp site. A small skirmish took place there. According to area legend as the fighting began a Union soldier was playing his fiddle. A Confederate bullet ended his life as he played. Local folklore has it that during the night one can still hear the fiddler playing his last song.
