Triple G was Josie's hero! She wanted to surprise her dad by doing a project on him. So she looked him up and looked up the Donner party and couldn't find him. Strange. She asked a librarian for help. He thought it was strange too. H offered her some old newspapers for her to look at. Hours and hours she looked at the newspapers she was about to give up but she looked at one last article. It was Triple G! She read it and saw that it was not what her dad told her  it was. She asked him and he told them that his father had made up the story and they thought he was a hero so he didn't tell them the truth.
