From.staff reports

The day's first light comes from the east, rising above the ocean and the Great Bay, bringing the Pinelands from darkness into retreating shadow.

Light spreads across the lush carpet of pine trees that stretches nearly to the horizon of the north and west. Eventually, the trees give way to a different ge-ography: There's a land-scape of homes of to the southwest that ends in a succession of business parks and shopping cen-ters. To the northeast, fields of corn and soybeans form a quiltwork on the Earth, interspersed with farms where horses and dairy cattle graze.

Dead ahead, the Delaware River flanks a line of towns whose indus-trial heritage still exists in acres of red-brick buildings.

Running through the middle of all this is the me-andering Rancocas Creek that might have inspired a Mark Twain or Stephen Foster in another era.

This blending of nature and commerce is Burling-ton County.

Perhaps the best single word that describes Burl-ing-ton County in the 21st century is "diverse." Across its 827 square miles, a vis-itor can find farms whose products range from sod and decorative flora to thor-oughbred racehorses and honeybees.

New residents pour into the booming area by the thousands each year in search of jobs and homes. In virtually every town, a wealth of beautifully main-tained older homes and commercial buildings date back more than 100 years.

That history extends to the people who lived in those homes years ago. In Mount Holly, there's the one-time home of Quaker abolitionist John Woolman, one of the first Americans to oppose the institution of slavery on moral and reli-gious grounds. Five min-utes away is the former manufacturing colony of an eccentric industrialist named Hezekiah Smith, whose inventions included a railroad used by bicycles fitted with train-like 2 flanged wheels.

Burlington City was home to Ulysses S. Grant for a time after his presi-dency. It was the birthplace of James Fenimore Cooper, the American novelist who created Natty Bumppo, and Capt. James Lawrence, whose battle cry of "Don't give up the ship" has long since passed into naval folklore.

urlington `County

One of the first Indian reservations in North America was established in Burlington County. Napo-leon Bonaparte's brother immigrated to America and set up housekeeping in Bordentown City.

The mud used to break in new baseballs be-fore they're used in major-league play is dredged up from a local site that's one of baseball's most closely guarded secrets.

Along the Rancocas Creek, historians have identified numerous houses used as hiding places for runaway slaves on the Underground Railroad during the Civil War era. It all goes back to the anti-slavery activism of Woolman that was kept alive by Quaker meetings that dot the county to this day.

Fort Dix, the U.S. Army post established in 1917, has trained millions of Army recruits from every walk of life during its long history.

It was also one of the first U.S. military in-stallations desegregated in the late 1940s, when part of it was partitioned as McGuire Air Force Base.

Today the two installations are in the process of joining together with the adjacent Lakehurst Naval Air Engineering Station in Ocean County to form the military's first megabase, uniting Army, Air Force and Naval units.

Ethnic enclaves of Italians, Poles, Romanians and Hungarians still thrive in the former indus-trial towns of Riverside and Florence, where rel-atives labored in generations past. They have been joined by a new wave of immigrants from South and Central America as well as Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia.

Willingboro, a onetime farm town, was trans-formed into a suburb by housing pioneer William Levitt and, in ensuing years, was held up nation-ally as the model of an integrated community.

Sleek new passenger trains now travel through the river towns of Burlington County from Trenton to Camden. The train system, called the River Line, offers inexpensive rides as well as hope for the economic rebirth of down-town shopping districts and abandoned industri-al sites.

The county has undergone enormous change during its past quarter-century of growth and commerce, but the huge expanses of pine forests will likely stand forever.

About a third of the county south of Route 70 is part of the 1.1-million-acre Pinelands Nation-al Preserve, a federally protected region that en-compasses not only unique plant and wildlife species but also the core of the blueberry and cranberry industries that were nurtured and ex-panded in the county.

These and other varieties of the county's agri-cultural heritage are celebrated each July dur-ing the Burlington County Farm Fair, a tradi-tional carnival dating back to 1946 held at the Village Green in Lumberton.

The county's farming heritage also got a big boost last spring with the opening of the new Community Agricultural Center in Moorestown.

The center features a community garden and hosts regular farmer's market days and farm festivals.

Burlington County Prison (which has now been transformed into a museum) was built in 1811 and operated for 154 years before shutting down permanently in 1965. Until 1908, the darkened, solitary cell on the third floor was used as a death row for inmates sentenced to death. In 1908, when the death penalty was suspended, the prison began using the dungeon cell as a method of punishment instead, ordering prisoners who misbehaved into solitary confinement. Convicted murderer Joel Clough, who spent his last night alive on Burlington Prison's death row, is said to be the primary haunter of the dungeon.

Many factors contribute to the prison being a prime candidate for a haunting: 1.) the building is in is original condition, there have been no major alterations; the hanging gallows still stand out back in the courtyard 2.) there are white mannequins resembling prisoners throughout the cells that are placed there to convey what the experience of solitary confinement was like 3.) there is an ongoing recording played over the speakers of the prison that mimics the sounds (dripping faucet, inmates wailing) heard in the jail when it was in use, and 4.) artifacts line the walls, including an inmate's Bible and a piece of hangman's rope. Drawings and writings done by the prisoners on the walls of the jail have also not been erased

Museum workers have reported seeing apparitions on the first floor. Visitors have heard voices and seen shadowy figures out the corner of their eyes in the basement. But the most activity, without a doubt, occurs on the third floor where the death row dungeon is located.

Transportation connection Light-rail train one of several options to get around

CO

By David tevinsicy EICT staff writer

dlevinsky phdyBurbs.com

Several public trans-portation systems operate in Burlington County.

The newest of the trans-portation options is NJ Transit's River Line light-rail train.

The 34-mile line con-necting Camden and Tren-ton along the Delaware River corridor began oper-ating in March 2004. It has 20 stations, including 11 in Burlington County.

Travelers riding the River Line can connect to PATCO's High Speed Line at the Walter Rand Trans-portation Center stop in Camden or to NJ Transit and Amtrak trains at the Trenton station.

River Line trains run every 30 minutes daily, ex-cept during weekday rush hours, when they run every 15 minutes.

On weekdays and Sun-days, the trains begin run-ning about 6 a.m. and con-tinue until 9 p.m. to all sta-tions, with trips continuing until midnight to some sta-tions in Camden and Pennsauken. On Satur-days the service runs until midnight.

A one-way trip on the line costs $1.35.

Reduced rates are avail-able for seniors and chil-dren traveling with an adult. Tickets can be pur-chased from vending ma-chines at the stations.

NJ Transit offers several bus routes through the county. They include the 317 Route connecting Pem-berton Township and Phila-delphia; the 406 Route con-necting Evesham and Philadelphia; the 407 Route connecting the Moorestown Mall and Philadelphia; the 409 Route connecting Tren-ton, Willingboro and Philadelphia; the 419 Route tonnecting Philadelphia and Burlington lbwnship; and the 457 Route connect-ing Camden and the Moorestown Mall.

National bus service is available at the Greyhound bus terminal on Fellowship Road in Mount Laurel and at the Academy Lines bus depot on Burlington-Mount Holly Road in Westampton.

Burlington County also operates its own bus sys-tem called BurLink. The system has 10 routes, including links between Pemberton, Mount Holly, Willingboro, Edgewater Park and Beverly and an

express route between the Willingboro Town Center and the Burlington County College campus in Pem-berton Township.

BurLink also has routes linking the Burlington Center Mall to Willingboro and linking various River Line stations to shopping and job sites in Delran, Florence and Moorestown.

BurLink rides cost $1 a trip for most mutes. The express route from the Willingboro to BCC's Pemberton campus costs $2.

The South Jersey Trans-portation Authority oper-ates a free shuttle system called Transit Link that connects the River Line's Route 73/Penn-sauken sta-tion with various job sites in Camden and Burlington counties.

Burlington County Library

From staff reports

Burlington County main-tains its own library system, with headquarters in West-ampton and seven branch li-braries across the county.

The Burlington County Library System also includes nine member libraries and an interactive Web site at www.bels.lib.nj.us .

The system is a member of both the South Jersey Re-gional Library Cooperative and the Ohio-based Online Computer Library Center, enabling users to borrow books and materials from throughout South Jersey and across the country.

The system has more than 950,000 books, 40,000 videos and 17,000 audio books. In 2007, it circulated nearly 2 million books, videos and other materials. About 1,200 people visit the main library on Woodlane Road in West-ampton daily.

The system's branches are in Bordentown City, Cin-naminson, Evesham, Maple Shade, Medford, Pemberton Township and Riverton. Member libraries are in Bass River, Beverly; Burlington City, Chesterfield, Delanco, Florence, Mount Holly, Riverside and Southampton

The system offers special services, including free home delivery of requested library materials; literacy materials and books for new readers; a large-print collection for peo-

ple who have trouble reading regular-sized print; and reading clubs and story pro-grams for children.

A bookmobile carrying more than 3,000 books, DVDs and books on CD goes to towns that do not have li-braries. It also visits retire-ment communities.

The system also provides free, in-house Internet ac-cess.

The system has a budget of $11.9 million for 2008. A separate county tax funds the system. The tax is levied on residents of 37 of the county's 40 municipalities; the three towns that are not part of the system are not taxed.

For hours, branch and member-library locations or more information, visit www.bcls.lib.nj.us or call (609) 267-9660.

The three towns that are not part of the system have their own libraries. They are: ■ Moorestown: The township library is in the mu-nicipal complex on West Sec-ond Street. Its offerings in-clude a New Jersey collec-tion, free Internet access and many children's programs. The library's Web site is at WWW.moorestown.lib.nj .us . For more information, call (856) 234-0333.

■ Mount Laurel: Fea-tures of the library on Walt Whitman Avenue include an audio-video section and a large-print book collection

for the visually impaired. Meeting rooms are available for community groups. The library offers free Internet access. The library's Web site is at www.mtlaurel.lib.nj.us . For more information, call (856) 234-7319.

■ Willingboro: The li-brary on Willingboro Park-way in the Willingboro Town Center has among its offer-ings complete sets of minutes from every Willingboro mu-nicipal agency and township documents dating back to the 1800s. It also has every college catalog published in the United States on micro-fiche.

The library also offers summer reading programs for children and free Internet access. The library's Web site can be found at www.willing-boro.org . For more informa-tion, call (609) 877-6668.
