Henry Baughman and his two sons were searching fields for lost cows when he became angry with his youngest son, August, for slowing the search and struck him with a stick, knocking him unconscious. Believing August was dead, Henry hid the body among what is now called Baughman Rocks. When he later returned to the site, he could not find the body. On the testimony of his eldest son, Henry was tried, convicted, and served a term for second degree murder, but what happened to August remains a mystery to this day.
