Miss Ess was the only one in the party licensed to drive and had taken the group to the lake for a swim. They had just arrived when the drowning occurred, according to Bobby Brown. Brown said that Miss Ess, who swam very little, had an inner tube with her, and had just walked into the water in wading depths when the boys went to another part of the little lake. When they looked back they saw the tube floating but could not see Miss Ess. Frightened and unable to drive back to Paris, the boys ran to the nearby Highway 24, hailed a passing transport truck and helps was brought from Paris.
