She leaned over the side of the bridge, lost her footing, and fell into the waters below. Neither she nor her baby were ever seen again. Legend states that if you visit this bridge on Friday the 13th, you can hear the baby crying.
This bridge has been abandoned so long that the forest is beginning to reclaim it.
