Three Boys Lose Boat in Night River Adventure
Charlie Dan and Jack borrow a river towboat for summer trips. After a day of fishing and camping on the bank, a midnight storm breaks their mooring and the boat drifts toward the dam. They reach a steep bank with a lantern guided rescue by a farmer, and reflect on recovering their loss while planning future work to replace the boat.
