"Two boys landed wth a skiff. Each wanted the other to tie the boat. While arguing over the matter the boat drifted out of reach. william Crowson, being a good swimmer, undertook to swim out and capture the skiff. he took cramps and drowned."

research by Elton Crowson: The TN River in the vicinity of the Crowson settlement in Giles Co. flows in the state of AL. It is some 50 or 60 miles west of there that it flows back up into TN. so it was probably actually in AL that Wm drowned. ^[S486]
