The following was written by Nessmuk AKA George Washington Sears who lived part of his life in the the county where I grew-up, Tioga County, PA—Potter County, PA is the bordering county to the west.
"It is probably known to all well informed people that, in the early days of Potter County, Pa., the food of the inhabitants consisted mainly of trout, venison, and leeks. For convenience in digging leeks, a long spur, something like an old-fashioned bayonet, was (or might have been) worn on the heel."
Forest Runes, by George Washington Sears, 1887
