Whidden new Hendry sheriff

Political newcomer
Steve Whidden
defeats Ronnie Lee

By Jose Jesus Zaragoza
Clewiston News
HENDRY COUNTY -- Steve
Whidden, who most recently
served as an officer with the
Clewiston Police Department,
defeated longtime Sheriff Ronnie
Lee for the county's top law en-
forcement position on Tuesday.

Mr. Whidden, who opponents
argued lacked the experience for
the job, captured the majority of
the votes of residents that night.
Mr. Whidden ran a successful
campaign that promised citizens
a fundamental change within
the operation of the county de-
partment -- a department that is
challenged by a shrinking budget
and overcrowded jail system.
Both Mr. Whidden and Mr.
Lee were unavailable for com-

ment.

cast their selection for United
States president, nearly 65 per-
cent of all registered voters in the
county exercised their right to
vote in this election, an increase
of eight percent from the previ-
ous presidential race in 2004.
Hendry County went to John
McCain, with 52 percent of the
vote, although Barack Obama
easily captured the nationwide
race.
In a razor-thin contest, Phil-

IN I/Ashley Smith
Many residents came out on Friday, Oct. 31 to celebrate Clewiston High School's Home-
coming Game. The celebration proved worthwhile, with the Tigers edging out the visiting
team later that night.

II/Ansmley amiln
Various creative displays were on hand at the Tigers' Homecoming Parade last Friday. The
parade was a perfect way to start off Halloween day.

The .05 percentile difference
-- a total of five votes -- was the
deciding factor in this race, but
election officials say that such a
negligible amount automatically
qualifies for a recount. Officials
have eight days to conduct the
recount.
Another closely watched race
was that of superintendent of
schools. Rick Murphy defeated
Robert Egley by capturing 58
percent of the votes cast.
And a contentious Clewiston
referendum was narrowly ap-

proved by voters, 52.25 percent
voting yes, 47.75 percent voting
no to a change in the charter that
firmly establishes the city man-
ager/commission form of gov-
ernment in Clewiston.

Jennifer Davis for clerk of court,

Consideration

to license all

handymen

By Patty Brant
INI Florida
Community Development
Director Vince Cautero brought
a suggestion to consider includ-
ing a "handyman" category for
inclusion under the Construc-
tion Licensing Board (CLB).
At present, handymen are
not licensed by the county,
there is no oversight and no
definition of their scope of
work. He said the CLB is rec-
ommending that the ordinance
be amended to include handy-
men with regard to oversight,
the scope of work allowable;
required experience and exam-
ination requirements; financial
responsibility and good charac-
ter of the applicant; and liabil-
ity and workers' compensation
insurance coverage.
The board voted unani-
mously to amend the current
construction board ordinance
to cover handymen. At present,
handymen are only required to
have an occupational license.

Pioneer Park a no go
Director of Grants and Spe-
cial Projects Ron Zimmerly re-
ported on the Oct. 24 meeting
in Pioneer Plantation to dis-
cuss a proposed Off Highway
Vehicle park. He reported that
the majority of the community
is opposed to the park, citing
issues like noise pollution, law
enforcement problems with
riders and inadequate access to
the site.
Although some Pioneer resi-
dents and other Hendry County
residents do want a place to

ride, they felt the Pioneer site
was too small to be appropri-
ate.
Mr. Zimmerly raised the
prospect of working with Lee
County on a joint site, but the
commissioners felt it would
only benefit Lee and Collier
residents.
Commissioner Kevn Mc-
Carthy preferred not to make
a decision immediately, but to
look at other sites and opportu-
nities.
Commissioner Harris felt
any such park should be self
supporting.

Dance hall approved
Azteca Supercentro, SR 29S,
requested a special excep-
tion to allow a dance hall on
the premises. It had been the
site of a dance hall previously.
Hours of operation are to be
Monday-Thursday 4-10 p.m.,
Friday-Sunday 9 p.m.-2 a.m.
After discussion, the request
was approved 3-1, with Com-
missioner Darrell Harris voting
nay. Mr. Harris was concerned
about possible law enforce
ment patrolling problems.

In other business:
The board approved a
Planned Unit Development
zoning ordinance to allow wa-
ter management, asphalt, con-
crete and horticultural recycling
operations on a 32-acre site on
SR 82 in Felda, on the north side
of the Hendry-Lee line.

Old South BBQ resurrected

Former cook serves
up a long-gone
menu
By Jose Jesus Zaragoza
Clewiston News
CLEWISTON -- What is good
barbecue?
Is it the way it's cooked ... or
prepared? Is it based on how
rich the color is on the sur-
face? Or the way that it smells
being set on the table? Is it the
price, or the speed with which
it comes?
The owners of the Clewiston
Inn say they have the answer.
They know what good bar-

becue is, and his name is Skin-
ner. Colbert Skinner.
A rarity in a world of homo-
geneity, Mr. Skinner is a dying
breed: A cook since the tender
(pun intended) age of 16, Mr.
Skinner allows no shortcuts in
his preparation of fine barbe-
cue.
The only items frozen in his
kitchen at the historic inn are
the ice cubes and his closest
friends are bundles of brisket,
found in abundance right before
lunchtime at the establishment.
You won't find large, industrial
machines that do all the cook-
ing, you'll find Skinner, working
away at injecting as much flavor
into dishes as beef will allow.

"He's a local legend," said
Floyd Salkey, who along with
partner Yasir Khan, owns and
manages the inn. "He always
sells out at festivals and he is a
great addition to our team."
Years ago, and the reason
many argue Clewiston was on
the map, signs all across U.S.
27 announced to motorists that
they were nearing Old South's
BBQ. Some traveled quite a
ways to enjoy the food, and
Skinner was there to help make
sure they left happy.
Through the years, the es-
tablishment exchanged hands,
and an absentee owner let the

Yasir Khan, left, and Floyd Salkey are hoping that customers
will return to the barbecue that made Clewiston so famous
years ago.

Tigers Squeak Past Inlet Grove, 27-26

By Jeff Barwick
Whew! It was truly a Hallow-
een type of game Friday night at
Cane Field and Clewiston almost
got tricked instead of treated by
the visiting Hurricanes. The con-
test, which likely in the end will
dictate who wins the District 2A 6
championship, was about as ex-
citing a football game as anyone
can remember. After Inlet Grove
scored a touchdown on a 26-yard
pass with no time remaining on
the clock, it all came down to the
point after kick as they tried to tie
the game and send it to overtime.
For the second time in the game,
Tiger Darris Hughes found a seam
in the line and busted through to
block the kick and seal the vic-
tory.
Clewiston kicked off, gave up
a quick first down and then held
Inlet Grove on downs. The Tigers
first possession began at the Inlet
Grove 45 after a bad snap forced
the punter to run the ball and he
was nailed for a 10-yard loss. Im-
mediately, it became apparent
that the Hurricane defense was
stacked to stop the Tiger run-
ning attack, led by tailback Dar-
ris Hughes. So the Tigers went a
different way, using the fullback
duo of Leonard Newton and Fred
Washington. Newton ploughed
for 17 and added 9 yards. Quar-
terback Isandro Marquez then hit
wideout Jonathan Brown for a 11
yard gain to the 14. From there,
Newton went off the left side and
found no hole but bounced to the
outside and raced for the pylon to
score. Marquez' kick was just off
the mark to the right.
Inlet Grove came back to
score with 3:18 left in the half
when quarterback Terry Bradden
connected on an 18 yard pass to
Tyrico McGriff and Ruben Vincent
tacked on the point after to put

the Tigers down, 7-6. With 1:04
left in the second period, safety
Jamarcus Smith picked off an
errant Bradden pass and raced
down the far sideline for 48 yards
to score. Clewiston went for a
two point conversion and Hughes
plowed within inches of the goal
line but was ruled short.
The Tigers clearly monopo-
lized the first half but blew two
other scoring opportunities on a
field goal attempt that went array
on a snap problem and a fumble.
Despite only holding a 12-6 half-
time lead, the Tiger faithful were
optimistic based on the ball con-
trol and good defense exhibited
to that point.
The third period was a little
more reassuring as Hughes took
the kickoff and raced 67 yards
to the Hurricane 15, Four snaps
later, Hughes got the final yard on
a plunge.
The Tigers went for another
two-point play and this time Mar-
quez found tight end Vontavious
Allen all alone in the end zone for
the points. After an exchange of
punts, the Tigers got rolling when
Marquez hit Newton with a pass
in the flats and he turned up field
for a nifty 24 yard gain. But 5
snaps later, Hughes fumbled after
a hard hit and the Hurricane's re-
covered.
After a Bradden pass for 28
yards and a short run, Bradden
dropped back to pass and took
off running. At 6'2" and about
230 pounds, he was dragging the
Tiger secondary along with him
for 16 yards and then he pitched
the ball back to a streaking Eddie
Coley who raced the remaining
30 yards to score. Then Hughes
got his first blocked extra point
of the night, which in the final
analysis was just as important as
the one he got on the last play of
the game.

Clewiston came right back
with Jamarcus Smith reeling off a
49 yard kickoff return to the Inlet
Grove 36. Hurricane penalties for
a facemask and personal foul and
a few short runs got the Tigers to
the 5. From there, Marquez then
hit his other tight end Julio Ramos
with a scoring strike and then
Marquez converted the point after
to give the Tigers a 27-13 lead.
As the third period ended, Ti-
ger cornerback Ricky Martinez in-
tercepted a Bradden pass to give
Clewiston the ball near midfield.
But the Tigers could not make
a first down and turned the ball
over on downs. Then the night-
mare began. Bradden, the lead-
ing passer in the area, connected
for a 45 yard gain in between a 10
yard penalty against them and a
24 yard loss on a high snap. Just
when it looked as if they were
stopped, Bradden connected
across the middle to wideout Mike
Ruiz who raced through defend-
ers before getting smacked hard
at the Tiger 20 and coughing up
the ball. As it rolled towards the
end zone, Tiger linebacker Dillon
Irey tried to get the loose ball but
it just skipped further into the end
zone and Keith Huff fell on it for
a Hurricane touchdown. Vincent
converted and narrowed the gap
to 27-20.
The Tigers got the ball back
twice on punts but could make no
progress either series and punted
the ball back to the Hurricanes
with only 53 seconds left in the
game and 65 yards between them
and the Tiger goal line. Bradden
quickly completed 3 passes for 9,
8 and 17 yards to reach the Tiger
30. After two incomplete passes,
he was forced from the pocket
but the Tigers were flagged for
a facemask penalty moving the
ball to the 15. Bradden first pass
fell incomplete and Irey then laid

him out with a 6 yard sack but as
Bradden was falling he attempted
to throw the ball and was flagged
for intentional grounding stop-
ping the clock with only 7 seconds
left. Despite all the Tiger defend-
ers deep, Bradden located Layton
Haynes in the corner of the end
zone for the touchdown as time
expired. Then with the crowd in
a roaring frenzy, Hughes slipped
through and knocked down the
extra point kick to end the game.
Clewiston improved their re-
cord to 6-2 overall and 3-0 in the
district. Inlet Grove dropped to 3-1
in the district. Clewiston travels to
Boca Raton Friday to play St. An-
drews, who is 2-1 in the district.
A win would give the Tigers their
third consecutive sweep of the
district and home field advantage
in the first round of the playoffs
which will begin on November
21. A loss would force a 3-way
tiebreaker contest on Monday,
November 10 either at Cane Field
or Inlet Grove. The team having
the best record at that point in the
season will host the game.
Tiger tailback churned out
111 yards on 27 tries and now is
within 2 yards of breaking Clewis-
ton's all time rushing record for a
season. Thomas Washington set
the record of 1,527 yards in 1990.
Quarterback Isandro Marquez had
another good night passing with
6 completions on 8 attempts for
62 timely yards and a touchdown
and a two-point conversion.
Defensively, Linebacker Leon-
ard Newton led the charge with 6
tackles. Dillon Irey had 4 tackles
and that key sack late in the game.
Defensive end Adam Trevino also
had a blocked pass.
The Tigers had to play without
the services of Lamarcus Thick-
lin, who normally plays on both
sides of the ball. Thicklin was
ejected from the Pope John Paul

game on a highly questionable
call and the Florida High School
Athletic Association imposed a 3
game penalty, which is under ap-
peal. Thicklin was being held by
his leg long after a play had ended
and he was trying to shake his leg
free. The official threw a flag and
penalized Thicklin for kicking an
opponent, which was clearly not
the case.

Raiders roll over Pembroke Pines

By Jeff Barwick
Although they fell behind on
an early score by the Jaguars,
Glades Central wasted little time
afterwards in smashing to a deci-
sive victory as they assured them-
selves of a playoff appearance. If
the Raiders win as favored against
Suncoast this week, then they will
capture their 16th consecutive
district title.
The Raiders (8-0 and 3-0 in dis-
trict play) scored touchdowns on
all five drives in the first half com-
bining a potent air and ground
attack. Running back Antoine
Chisolm led the offense with
touchdown runs of 25, 35 and
10 yards and also caught a L.J.
Thomas pass for a 54 yard score.
Thomas completed 11 or 14 at-
tempts for 295 yards and 3 scores.
Wideout Rantavious Wooten
pulled in 6 passes for 169 yards
including touchdowns catches of
27 and 48 yards. Flanker Kelvin
Benjamin also caught 2 touch-
down passes on throws of 10 and
3 yards by backup quarterbacks
Alanda Shaw and Kentavious Mc-
Coy.
The Glades Central defense
was swarming all night as they
held the Jaguars to under 95
yards of total offense and only 6

first downs.

Blue Devils shutout
Cardinal Newman
The Crusaders' game plan
called for keeping the ball away
from the Pahokee offense. And,
it almost worked early in the first
period but after that it was lights
out as Cardinal Newman got a
lesson in the explosiveness of
the Pahokee offense. Perhaps
outshining the offensive perfor-
mance, Pahokee held the Crusad-
ers to 22 yards of total offense.
Once the Blue Devils got the
ball, it only took three plays be-
fore tailback Vincent Smith broke
free and raced for a 59 yard score.
Smith added a 67-yard touchdown
scamper in the third period.
In the second period, Paho-
kee scored on a 13 yard fumble
return by linebacker Brandin.
Hawthorne. Then quarterback
Emanuel Perez hooked up on
consecutive snaps for touchdown
passes of 55 yards to Nu'Keese
Richardson and 50 yards to Dex-
ter Holmes. Perez completed 6
of 12 throws for 160 yards. Cur-
tis Daley got the Blue Devil's final
touchdown on a 1 yard dive in the

final period.
The Blue Devils improved their
record to 7-1 overall and 3-0 in
district play, having already cap-
tured the district crown. Pahokee
travels to Vero Beach for a non-
district contest this Friday.

Gators fall to Kings
The Gators got off to a great
start and scored on their first pos-
session when wideout DeAndres
Jackson lined up as a deep back,
took a direct snap racing 33 yards
for the touchdown. Unfortunate-
ly, that was Glades Day's last seri-
ous offensive drive in the game as
the Lions posted 41 unanswered
points.
Standout Glades Day tailback
Kelvin Taylor had a tough night
as he was held to 65 yards in 15
carries. Likewise, senior quar-
terback Bo Schlechter was held
in check as he completed 4 of 16
passes for 36 yards. Defensively,
the Gators could not stop the
Kings Academy potent rushing
offense that had 300 yards on 35
attempts and controlled the ball
most of the game.
Terriers slammed by Island
Coast, 47-14
Moore Haven's talented pass-

ing attack, led by quarterback Dal- MOST INSURANCE
ton Britt and senior wide receiver ACCEPTED.
Xavier Fagan, was no match for
the Gators, a first year varsity pro-
gram from Cape Coral. Island CLEWISTON OKEECHOBEE
Coast had put the game out of 805-0030 467-6767
reach by halftime, having built up 112 W.C. Owen S. 301 NE 19th Drive
a 31-14 advantage. (Next to the hospital)
Britt was impressive as he
completed 19 of 29 passes for 315 ww.wederm.com
yards. Fagan, the leading receiver
in the State, pulled in 10 catches
for 162 yards and a touchdown.
But in the end, the Island coast
ground game just outmatched
the Terriers and ate up the game r
clock. But the Moore Haven run-
ning game was locked up all night
and was held to a minus 5 yards
on 19 tries. The Terrier effort was
also not helped by more than 100
yards in penalties.
The Terriers fell to 4-4 on the
season and travel to Glades Day
this Friday for a district contest.
However, Moore Haven's 0-2 re-
cord in district play has eliminated
them from the playoff picture.

America's Sweetest
Heroes

The City of Clewiston will be
offering a Veterans Honor Service
on November 11, Veterans Day.
The ceremony will take place at
Sugarland Park on Hwy 27 next to
the Clewiston Inn. The celebration

served in the military to Kristine
Petersen at the Clewiston Police
Department. Please include the
military members name and their
rank on the picture. It does not
matter if your loved one served in
peace or in the time of war. The
important thing is to have them
recognized and honored. The pic-
tures will be placed on the wall of
fame and displayed at the park.
Any questions call Kristine Peters-
en at 863-983-1474.

The Caloosa Humane
Society has 'School
Year Hours'!
Please make note of the busi-
ness hours change as follows:
*Tuesday through Friday: 12
p.m. to 5 p.m.
*Saturday: 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Surgery days will remain the
same as always:
*8 a.m. to 9 a.m. drop-off of
scheduled pets for surgery
*2 p.m. to 4 p.m. pick-up of
pets after surgery

Plan now for
November
It is time to organize your
schedule so that you can take
the time off during Thanksgiving
week to attend the Big "0" Hike
around Lake Okeechobee.
The Hike will begin in Pahokee
on Nov. 22, and end at Pahokee
on Nov. 30.
That's nine days of walking
from 9 to 14 miles a day to make
it all the way around the lake.
There is a little bit of a challenge
to this walk.
Hundreds of people have tried
over the years and (for some rea-
son) only about 20 to 30 percent
of the walkers manage to finish
the 9 days. So plan now and get
in shape for November.
For further information please
call Paul at 561-963-9906.

Sponsor a pet
People who love pets but can-
not adopt one for one reason or
another now have another way
to help. Caloosa Humane Society
has just added a feature to its pet
list on Petfinder.com called Spon-
sor a Pet.
With a simple click of a button,
a visitor can make a donation to a
pet's care. To see pets available to
sponsor, visit www.dogncat.pet-
finder.com.

CHS Student Readers of the Month

Westside Elementary
School
Nestle Pure Life Water bot-
tle project
Westside elementary has been
hard at work this school year. One
of the major yearlong projects the
students and faculty are working
on is the Nestle Pure Life Water
Bottle collection. The school is
collecting not only the bottles for
recycling, but the labels from the
Nestle bottles. The labels are then
saved and redeemed for physi-
cal education equipment for the
school. The biggest goal is to save
more labels than any other reg-
istered school in the nation! The
one school who saves the most
during the months of September
through February will learn a

new playground for their school!
So far, Westside has collected
nearly 5,000 labels. Our goal is
over 15,000. Westside invites
the community to join us in our
quest for new physical education
equipment and the possibility of
a new playground. For anyone
interested in helping us reach our
goal, please call 863-983-1570 and
a representative from the school
will be more than happy to pick
up the bottles and the labels!

"The Power of a Sim-
ple Gift"
This year Clewiston Christian
School has decided to participate
in the Samaritan's Purse outreach
called Operation Christmas Child.
Items such as school supplies,
toys, hygiene items, candy and a
personal note are placed in shoe-
boxes & sent to children all over
the world. This is a great tool for
teaching our children about em-
pathy and showing kindness to
others who are less fortunate. If
you would like to donate cash or
items for the shoeboxes you con-
tact us at 863-983-5388 or you are
welcome to stop by at 601 Carib-
bean Ave. Donations of cash or

items for the shoeboxes should
be made by Nov. 14 to allow time
to purchase and coordinate gift
boxes. CCS says Thank You!

Westside A.R. Rally
Westside students have trav-
eled back in time with the Acceler-
ated Reader (A.R.) Program. This
year's theme is Westside Travels
Through Time. Each grade level
selected a period of time to focus
on throughout the school year.
They range from Prehistoric times
to Early American Wild West,
and even the Space Age! In the
school's first A.R. Rally, West-
side's very own Blues Brothers
performed to pump the students
up and reviled a time machine

they built to take them back in
time. At the end of the rally, the
Blues Brother's jumped into their
time machine and headed for
Prehistoric times. On November
7, 2008 at 9:00 a.m., Westside's
Blues Brothers will be back in
our second A.R. Rally of the year,
this time with a quarter challenge
for Principal Mr. Shearer and As-
sistant Principal Mr. Duckstein.
Both will randomly draw teach-
er's names to build their teams
for a dinosaur egg race. Students
will also be recognized for their
accomplishments with the A.R.
program. This year, students who
achieve their individual goal will
receive an engraved metal cuff as
an incentive.

For the Month of
October 2008
Clewiston High School has in-
stituted a new student recognition
award this year, Student Reader
of the Month. Students are nomi-
nated by teachers for demonstrat-
ing outstanding reading practices
or for showing improvement and
initiative. September Readers of
the Month were Junior Katrina
Vann and Junior David Friesen.

restaurant doors close. When
Sonny's restaurant burned down
and left a void in barbecue offer-
ings, Yassir and Floyd aren't afraid
to say they saw the opportunity
and fast-tracked their plans to of-
fer the new menu items.
The owners of the Inn are a
few weeks away from unveiling
a number of signs adhering to
the old design and will be placing
them throughout the area. The
eventual goal is to mirror some of
the former locations with place-
ment along the major corridors
leading to Clewiston from Miami,
Ft. Myers, etc.
One of the signs is visible from
U.S. 27, on entering Clewiston
just before the railroad tracks.
"We're bringing that history
back," said Mr. Salkey.
Despite less-than-perfect eco-
nomic conditions affecting the
country at the moment, the own-
ers of the inn say they have been
posting strong sales that continue
improving month after month.
"Like everything else, you just

have to provide a good product,"
said Mr. Khan. "That means qual-
ity food at good prices. It's totally

opposite from a franchise."
Providing the barbecue that
residents remember eating years

ago, he said, is simply another
way of keeping the customers
happy.
And happy is what Skinner is
shooting for.
About 50 separate ingredients
go into making the original Old
South barbecue recipe, including
real local sugar.
Mr. Salkey is a rib fan himself,
while he promises that any item
on the menu is cooked to please,
including the chicken, the pulled
pork, mac and cheese and corn-
bread.
The biggest compliment so far
is when an incredulous customer
sits down and wonders whether
it will compare to their mom's
cooking.
"Well, try this, I think you'll be
surprised," Mr. Salkey tells them.
The duo was going for afford-
ability, and most items on the
menu are within the single-digit
numbers.
"This falls in line with every-
body's budget," Mr. Salkey said.
The Clewiston Inn still offers
its colonial menu, featuring all the
staple favorites of residents: the
steaks and the lobster bisque, but
at least now there'll be a choice.

The lives and customs of Calua Society

By Butch Wilson
Clewiston Museum Director
The black void of the night
was a mere rehearsal of a darker
ceremony to come, an event so
sinister that only humans could
seek solace and justification in its
treachery.... human sacrifices.
Fifty captives, who had en-
dured months of harsh slavery,
now lay bound awaiting the de-
pravity of their captors.
The priests, painted in black
and wearing gruesome, carved
masks that represented their dei-
ties, emerged from the temple,
frolicking across the temple
mound grounds.
Hours later, the priests ap-
proached the captives and select-
ed the first victim. Warriors held
the screaming victim as a priest
severed the head. This act was re-
peated until the bodies of 50 vic-
tims lay on the temple grounds.
This fictional story is based
on a document written by a wit-
ness to this event. Temples and
human sacrifices were woven
together in the religious practices
of the Calusa. It was a simple
equation: temple + captive =
sacrifice. There was probably a
temple located at the old mound
ruins in Clewiston. What captive
would have ever thought that
piece of real estate would one day
be known as America's Sweetest
Town? It is now time to leave the
faint hearted behind and take "A
Walk in The Past." to learn about
the Calusa society and religion.

The Calusa society was a class
system, the nobility and the com-
moners. The commoners did
most of the work, but benefited
the least. Some Spanish docu-
ments stated that commoner's
status would be raised in the tribe
if their child was offered as a sac
rifice when a chief's child died.
Slavery was last on the list in the
social order of the Calusa.
The Chief of the Calusa was
called cacique. His regal clothing
included a forehead ornament
and beaded leg bands. He was
greatly respected; commoners
presented themselves to the chief
with hands raised and palms up.
The chief would then place his
hands over the upturned palms.
Incest was permitted only with
the ruling chief, who was required
to first marry his sister. Polygamy
was permissible in Calusa soci-
ety. The king could marry and
take additional wives after he had
married his sister. When a chief
or wife number one died, some
of their servants were killed to ac-
company them to the next world.
When the child of a chief died,
children were sacrificed
The Calusa believed that a per-
son had three souls. The first was
the small pupil of the eye; the sec-
ond was the shadow that a per-
son cast, and the third was a per-
son's reflection in a mirror or on
calm water. When a person died,
two souls left the body, but the
third soul (the pupil of the eye) re-
mained forever with the skeleton.
T he Calusa would go to the grave

of a deceased person and ask for
advice. The deceased would talk
to the person (thoughts) giving
them the answers they sought.
When a person became sick,
they believed that one of the souls
had left the body. A shaman
would search for it in the woods
and drive it back to the village
like a herdsman corralling sheep.
Fires were lit around the door
to prevent the soul from leaving
again. Ceremonies were then per-
formed that would put the soul
back into the sick person through
the nape of the neck. The death of
a person freed two souls, one en-
tered a fish or animal, and when
that critter died the soul went to a
lesser creature until eventually the
soul was reduced to nothing.
Calusa believed the world was
governed by three Gods and that
the first God was greater than the
other two. The first God governed
the heavens and seasons, the sec-
ond God governed kingdoms, and
the third God helped in war.
The shaman or priest played
an important role in religious
practices. A large sacred shelter
called a temple was set apart from
the other mounds. The Chief and
priest would enter the temple
to perform secret ceremonies.
Masks were carved from cypress
and stored along the walls of the
temple. The elaborate masks
were colored with berry juices
and sap from rubber trees. The
priests wore the masks when they
performed rituals in the village.
The priest performed human

sacrifices once a year. Many of
the castaways were sacrificed
to the Calusa Gods. The victims
were led out after the Calusa
priests had danced with the cer-
emonial masks for several hours.
Each victim was beheaded, and
the head was held while the priest
completed the dance rituals. The
heads were buried close to the
temple mound.
This edition is gruesome, but
historically records the social and
religious practices of the Calusa.
The Calusa were a complex so-
ciety with law and order, but de-
praved in their religion. It is sad,
but true, that the history of hu-
manity reveals the same tainted
heart.
There will be other "Tall Tales"
in next weeks edition of "A Walk
in The Past" when Fontanedo
describes the Indian nations that
paid tribute to the Calusa. I hope
you have enjoyed this story.
