The present work was reproduced as an illustration for Laurie York Erskine's "Why Craig Laughed" in the May 1940 issue of The American Boy—Youth's Companion. The work depicts the moment when, "As the canoe swept by, Tom caught a glimpse of Crawford, but what he saw sent through him a chill of horror."

Unfortunately, on March 2, 1950, the original painting was destroyed in a cabin fire in Vermont. That same year, at the request of the work's owner Mr. William Stainer, Schoonover painted the present version to replace the lost work.
