How a Mountain Got its Name - The Legends of Jenny Jump   

1     Legend 1
 
2     Jenny was a nine-year-old girl who lived a long time ago. She lived in a small white house that was below a high cliff. One day she was playing on the cliff and picking berries when an Indian surprised her. She called to her father because she was very afraid. He called back "Jump, Jenny, jump." She always did what her father told her, so she jumped from the high rocky cliff to her death.
 
3     Legend 2
 
4     Long ago, a beautiful young lady named Jenny Lee lived with her aged father in a small log cottage near the foot of the mountain. Jenny loved Dr. Frank Landis who was the doctor in the village. She was engaged to marry him.
