Sally, a young girl who became ill when the typhoid fever epidemic hit Morgantown. Before her death, Sally visited the building with her parents where the "Mountain Lair" now stands. The building is said to have been a Morgantown gathering area, much like it is today.
After Sally's death, she was buried in a cemetery where Stewart Hall is now located. The bodies were moved from the cemetery to another location, but Sally wasn't ready to leave. Witnesses who have seen Sally say that she dances around the Mountainlair wearing a yellow dress and between the pillars of Stewart Hall. Once Sally rounds the corner, though, she's gone.
