Hero Today, Gone Tomorrow
The Schooner Bay Historical Society decides to place a statue of a local hero in the town square. The president of the society, Miss Elvira Grover takes it upon herself to choose the person without the voting of the other members, and decides upon her ancestor--Captain Horatio Figg, a supposed hero of the Mexican War who died at sea. The Captain is overcome with rage at this choice, which Carolyn takes for jealousy because he himself was not picked.

Carolyn, who is writing an article on Figg, tells the Captain she must have proof of his accusations.

Carolyn takes the historical society to vie
