Tiptonville Tennessee reports a double murder after Nat Davis and a woman aboard a shanty boat vanish. The boat was found below town with signs of a struggle and possible throwing overboard. Davis, a fisherman, was rumored to have a secret stash of money on the boat. Local authorities suspect robbers killed them for the cash.

Water pumped into the swamp shows little effect, and winds toward Ovando could doom the town.
