After the dogs became confused from all the people around and their smells mixing with Nell’s, they quit using them and decided to drag the river. Jim did not work on the drag boats; instead he stayed ashore with the rest of the town watching and being watched. Many times things were brought up from the river, but they only brought up trash like “…muck-covered stump or cast off debris from the mills.” (pg. 28; Simpson) They also tried to raise her body using percussion, but that didn’t work either.
