LOVERS LEAP ON THE BOSQUE RIVER, WACO, TEXAS

Lovers Leap faces on the Bosque River near a point
where it empties into the Brazos, and commands a view
of the farm lands and plains to the east of the city.
Abour it hangs the atmosphere of an old Indian legend
of the lovers who made a desperate leap for safety from
the top of the cliffs to the waters of the Bosque below
them. They were driven to seek this dangerous mode
of escape pursued, as they were, by the father and
brothers of the maiden, who wanted to part the lovers
since they belonged to warring tribes — she to the
Huacos, he to the Apaches. Death halted their flight,
so the story goes, in the turbulent waters of the river
into which they flung themselves, but the cliff above
them received a name.
