To reach the flooded section the boat was forced to plunge through the crevasse in the leyee near Wyanoke.

 "An average of 5o people were taken each trip from the submerged houses at Edmondson 10 the leyee. 8 distance ofthree miles, stated Harry Eleman, captain of the Good News
 We had our boat loaded t9 the gunwales and the strain of the work in the woods bent our propeller shaft, also one cylinder head was damaged and we were forced to come 10 Mem phis for repairs.
