About this listen

 After the notorious bushwhacker Alf Bolin was killed, soldiers decided to take his body to Ozark. On the way, however, they decapitated Bolin and buried his body. No one knows exactly where the grave site is, though a description of the site was recorded by Doug Mahnkey, a prominent Taney County lawyer. Join the Chronicles as Jeff Michel and Tammy Morton, both experienced grave dowsers, take their dowsing rods into the field in search of Bolin's body. Do they succeed? That's for you to decide! In any case, we know you'll enjoy this fascinating intersection of history, folklore, and the ancient practice of dowsing.
