In the early summer of 1903, a rumor spread everywhere.
The rumor said that the tengu, or long-nosed goblin of Mt. Hiko appeared in Akizuki, Asakura County, Fukuoka Prefecture and that the miraculous water from a spring newly found in the townwould cure every disease.
The people at pits seemingly went to Akizuki for the water all together.
However, the rumor proved to be fraud after it was investigated by the police.
Frauds who had their decoys spread the rumor reportedly pocketed huge money offered at the spring.
It is said, moreover, that the spring water was unsanitary and not good to drink.
