On a stormy evening on November 11, 1952, two young men, George Woodford and Billy LeDrew, left Change Islands to sail across the narrow strait to cut firewood near Farewell. When they failed to return the next day an all-out search ensued. Their bodies were later discovered some good distance from each other and nowhere near their boat. No one knows exactly what happened. My version of the events of that night may not solve the puzzle. But it may shed some light on what may or may not have happened to George Woodford and Billy LeDrew.
