The Milky Way over two Martello towers. The tower in the foreground is at Fort Henry, and the one in the distance is on Cedar Island in the St. Lawrence River.

Nils von Schoultz is the ghost of a man that allegedly haunts Fort Henry in Kingston Ohio. Nils von Schoultz was Finnish man who was born on October 7th 1807 in Sweden and helped during the Battle of the Windmill during the Upper Canada Revolution. He was eventually put in charge of a boat called the Charlotte of Toronto when he made it down to the St. Lawrence River. Nils von Schoultz made it don the river with his crew of 150 men together they built blockades to stop the British for nearly five days until him and his men surrendered. Nils von Schoultz was eventually brought to Fort Kingston and put to death by hanging on December 8th 1838. People still say they see him walking around the Fort to this day.
