The most curious is four boys: Tuck, Buddy, Sticky and J.Leon, the boys have dubbed the man, Rags, and are determined to learn more about him. An overnight camping trip to a small island in the Catawba River and a serious swimming accident make for a lot of excitement in this cotton mill town. Mt. Bell's Chief of Police drives a beautiful 1934 Ford Coupe as his official police car.
