  Lord I pray that someone will find this child’s remains so the family can have closure. In Jesus’ name Amen!

  Look at that dense Forrest!  I think with the storm and showers plus getting darker, Dennis got turned around and probably did get washed away. Very sad! You can’t let kids get too far away from you in a big Forrest especially.😊

  I lived in Jackson, Mississippi then, and have had connections to the mountains since 1953 when my cousins moved there. My mother&apos;s brother was a doctor in Maryville and my mom, dad and her parents lived together, making frequent trips to Maryville and the mountains. I remember the first time when I was three like it was yesterday and I have memories that were confirmed when my folks died and I came into possession of all the family photos. So in 1969 when the search was on for Dennis I remember it well from radio reports, one in particular while having lunch in the kitchen with Grandpa. It was on the Paul Harvey radio show. Harvey committed a good bit of time every day to cover the story of Dennis Martin. Funny how things work, though, my cousins never heard a word about the search that they remember.<br>I read McCarver&apos;s books and remember him talking about using Border Collies along with blood hounds because I have had and still do, Border Collies and I understood what he was talking about. Border Collies can pick up a scent from a long way off and go straight to the source of the scent. But tracking from there is a different story, &nbsp;they have minds of their own and will do what they want, so bringing in blood hounds who keep their noses to the scent until a person or thing is found or until there is no more scent, makes perfect sense.

  Makes you wonder if he may have tried to cross a stream after that much rain in one night you know those streams are going to be flooded and got washed away down the mountain.
