Description From Owner:

The precise origin of the name is in some doubt. One version is that in the 1800s John Hawkins temporarily lost a puncheon of rum.
A man had to help him out of the depression in the ground into which he had fallen and was rewarded with a gallon of rum.
Another version is that the devil ordered John Hawkins to 'cut loose a cargo of rum.' There is a hollow or depression in the park.
