An Oklahoma Tragedy

This is a 1939 true story about a seventy-three-year-old Navina, Oklahoma, widowed farmer who was missing when his married daughter and her husband came to his house to fix Sunday dinner, as had been arranged the day before. The sheriff is called who starts questioning local neighbors about the missing farmer to find out when he was last seen or if anything suspicious had been seen in the area. The entire Navina farming community came together for two days to hunt for the farmer and to determine what had happened to him. The actual town of Navinas business buildings no longer exist, which the book includes several pictures of those buildings during the time before the town of Navina became nonexistent in the 1940s.
