The exact number of fugitives hidden in this cave is not known, but statements that large numbers of Negroes were ferried over the Missouri river at this point were corroborated by old settlers when this information was obtained in 1901. Nearly always the first trip in the morning of John Boulware's ferry carried a load of stolen slaves.
