Jimmy or Jimmie depending on who you ask was working on a tug boat in Galveston. He was to be married the next day. There was a huge storm and his father begged him not to go to work but he said he needed the money for the wedding. A boom swung across the deck and knocked him into the water where he drowned. The body was not found for a week.
This story was related to Yale St. Clair from his cousin Geneva Welch Harmon.
