UP LOSSMAN’S 
RIVER 
(continued from page 17) 
I T was Johnny Billy who, seated on the 
Mae’s hatch, related the story of Dr. 
Tiger. When this good Indian was a 
young man, he left his Everglade home 
and went to school at Carlisle. He 
would be progressive .... he would lift 
himself high above the sordidness of his 
environment .... he would return some 
day and prove a benefactor to his race. 
They said of the young Seminole, that 
the lips of the Great Open called to 
Doctor Tiger in a brief span. He 
learned his trade of medicine and with 
many closely guarded boxes and cases, 
trailed back down the coast and up 
Lossmann’s River, then a rarely trav- 
ersed stream in a vast, virgin territory. 
But his tribesmen were on every hand. 
And Doctor Tiger built a shack in the 
solitudes of Fifth Lake, later to be 
named for him. Here, on a shell island, 
a recluse, he lived a life of usefulness. 
Indians for miles about came to Dr. 
Tiger when they were desperately ill, 
or had their younger friends call for 
medicine. Often, at twilight, after days 
of travel, the cypress canoes would steal 
solemnly across this hidden lakes, bear- 
ing the limp forms of Indian children. 
And Dr. Tiger never refused aid. 
Finally, in 1912 breath and the di- 
vine spark left his weary body. For 
Doctor Tiger died of consumption, a 
martyr to his own w’onderful ideal. 
“Johnny Billy says .... this place 
make him very sad,” declared Hendry, 
“he know Dr. Tiger .... love him much 
.... something makes him think of 
things his ancestors tell him .... first 
came Spanish — and they fight Indian 
.... then come English — they fight 
Indians .... then come America w’hite 
man .... and they fight Indians, w'orst 
of all. Sometimes fight each other .... 
His great grandfather came in big boat 
apd land at St. Augustine .... old fort 
San Marco. Johnny Billy says that 
Everglades dry up like sponge with no 
water and then last Seminoles die. May- 
be E-shock-e-tom-e-see (The supreme 
Ruler or White Man’s God) fight Indi- 
an too.” 
But suddenly the drooping figure on 
the hatch was raised to a supreme height 
and the proud head reared upward, and 
Johnny Billy, in all his tribal pride and 
dignity, motioned that he must be on 
his way. 
They gave him money, and a jug of 
wyomee and a new pocket knife, and 
he put off in the cypress canoe. Both 
dark hands flattened upon Hendry’s 
palm, as he looked him full in the eyes. 
There was much of the kindred spirit 
in these two .... and a Seminole 
never forgets. 
In silence, John, Mr. King and the 
guide stood at the farthest extremity 
of the shell mound, watching . . 
watching, until Indian and canoe had 
melted into shadowland far across Dr. 
Tiger’s Lake.
