The Legend of the Fairy Stone: Many hundreds
of years before Chief Powhatan’s reign, fairies were
dancing around a spring of water, playing with
naiads and wood nymphs, when an elfin messenger
arrived from a city far away. He brought news of the
death of Christ. When these creatures of the forest
heard the story of the crucifixion, they wept. As
their tears fell upon the earth, they crystallized
to form beautiful crosses.
These natural crosses are in great demand as charms,
and ex-President Theodore Roosevelt is said to wear
one of them mounted as a watch-charm.
