b)

who: Eugene

where: Honey Island Swamp

what: Eugene was fishing, but he fell asleep and when he woke up, he tried to pull back his line, but it was stuck.

He swam to it, because he didn’t want to lose his lucky lure, but then he got trapped.

Later, there also came an alligator, but he swam away because he bit into the log.

There were also three teeth from the alligator in the log.

The canoe drifted up behind him, hit him in the back and he could grab the knife to cut his ankle free.

when: Late afternoon in the last week of the summer vacation (when Eugene was young)

why: He went to the swamp, because he wanted to fish
