One day, many years ago, a man named Billy Butt and another man were sailing up the shore in a sailboat. They were sailing pretty close to land. Then a storm of wind struck from the eastern. That day the two sailors lost their lives. The wind was blowing too hard, they were too close to land and they ended up running ashore on the rocks. The two men were drowned in a small cove up by Spear Point.

After that terrible accident the cove was named Billy Butt's Cove. Sometimes when people would be out hunting they would see a seal in Billy Butt's Cove. When they would get a little closer they would see the imprint of a pair of braces on the seal's back. When you would raise your gun to take a shoot at the seal he would disappear. Then when you lowered the gun you would see the seal again.

In the old days men wore suspenders to keep their pants up. Some people believe that the seal is the spirit of Billy Butt and the suspenders are an imprint of the suspenders he was wearing when he was drowned that day. People believe that the seal appears as a warning that a storm of wind from the east or northeast is on its way. Many people have seen the seal with the suspenders on, so it is not just the imagination of one of two people. After somebody has seen the seal with suspenders on, you are guaranteed to get a storm of wind from the east or northeast.

One evening last winter in 1998, me and my friend decided to go up the bay to Hatter's Cove on the same ski-doo. It was in the night and we were going along when we saw a strange light for just a few seconds and then it disappeared. I said "Justin, did you see that?" He said, "Yeah, I seen that." I said, "What was it?" He said, "I don't know what it was." We had no idea of where it went at. So we went on up the bay to where the cabin was, went to the cabin and to this day, we do not know what it was. People up the bay never saw anything, no light or nothing. The light was on the new trail that they had just finished, it was coming off the trail onto the bay, coming right out straight towards us and I say it lasted about 2-3 seconds. We did not follow it. This old fellow, a friend of mine, told me that if you follow a light it will lead you to danger. I think that a lot of older people believed that saying. I've heard stories, people say that they followed the light and they went right to the edge of the ice where it was open water from that. The light was about the same brightness as a ski-doo light, it was yellow but higher in the air. It only lasted 2-3 seconds like I said. It's something I never saw before in my life. It was not a ski-doo, no ski-doo came through the trail that night.
