At the Aleynby farm after the blizzard:
.... It took a while to get everyone ready but soon they were all set and having a great time. Frances had brought the two Chase kids and they helped with Adam and Alan. Everyone seemed to be having a great time, including Hannah and Stan.
When
the girls wanted to take a break, Hannah took them inside and told them to make
themselves at home, leaving the boys and men alone outside. Noah took his
chance then to sound Brad out on coming to work for the Fairhaven Police.
So
it was that when the body was found, Noah and Brad were nowhere near and there
was confusion everywhere. Stan and Isaac saw Adam and the Chase boy pushing on
something buried in the snow. Thinking it was a log or fence post they didn’t pay too much
attention. Soon they heard the boys hollering and saw Fred go over to them.
After a few minutes, Fred called to Cliff. Hearing Cliff’s name, Isaac and Stan
went over to see what was wrong.....
