Jon, I think this story may have been reprinted in Springhouse Magazine a couple of years ago.

One of the stories involves a man named Harris who was with a group on the Ohio or Mississippi River in a houseboat on a fishing trip. Something happened and the boat sank drowning some of the men. I believe this took place in the 1930s or 1940s. Most, if not all, of the men were from the Harrisburg area. It made the newspaper at the time and I believe it has been reprinted in either the quarterly of the Saline County Genealogical Society or Springhouse or something. Basically, I know I've seen this in print sometime over the last decade, but I don't know where. Does this ring any bells? > > Sincerely, > > Jon Musgrave > www.IllinoisHistory.com > > ______________________________
