When Asa Holbrook Staggs stepped into the cold-water spring that would later bear his name, he was drunk. He pulled himself from the water, sober, and converted to a new life in the Lord. And thus began the legend of Asa's Spring, a pool dispensing favouritism to those who believed in the curative power of its water. These are stories of people born in Cuttercane, Georgia, the place of Asa's Spring, and who earned minor celebrity from the townsfolk's highest praise.
