Boy Scouts Down in Dixie

The Silver Fox Patrol are starting a new adventure down in the swamp of Louisiana. This trip is an important one to Thad, because they are looking for his long lost little sister, Pauline. All the boys are there to support their friend and leader, and, of course, trouble is never really that far behind these young men! Herbert Carter is one of many pseudonyms used by St George Rathborne. (7 hr 57 min)
