While talking with locals, Lockhart is met with resistance and disbelief by most. Of those willing to talk with him, hes directed to speak with Old Man Crenshaw who lives in a shack along the river bank. Lockhart leases a boat, and takes off to meet with Crenshaw. Crenshaw is a sexagenarian man, fitting the stereotypical notion of a hillbilly or mountainman, living alone on his property. While somewhat welcoming to Lockhart and his entourage, he seems unwilling to talk too much about the creature, or why he is maintaining a series of bonfires on his land. A severe storm closes in, and makes heading back down the river dangerous, forcing Lockhart and the students to have to stay the night in Crenshaws cabin.Believing Lockhart to be a medical doctor, Crenshaw enlists his help in tending to an animal he has caught. To Lockharts amazement, it is the adolescent creature. Lockhart determines that the adult creature has been more hostile in the area recently due to the capture of its child, who is now near death. Lockhart commandeers Crensahws gun and ammo and returns the adolescent creature to the adult when it attacks the cabin in the night. With its young in its arms, the creature leaves the cabin without further incident. The following morning, Crenshaw agrees with Lockharts assessment that the creatures should be left alone. Lockhart decides not to tell others about his experiences while in the Boggy Creek area, and returns down the river with his students. ........
