17. A Day Of Picnic At the Lake

www.citidata.com

On August 23, 1912, the Dunbars were headed for a day of picnicking to nearby Lake Swayze, 20 miles away from their home. The plan was to go fishing and have a day of fun with the boys exploring the lakeside. Their elder son Bobby was an inquisitive four-year-old now. Little did he know that his curiosity would change his and his family’s fate forever. Even the parents weren’t exactly aware of the dangers of the lake.
