Dixie got off of her boat and decided to go on a walk through the city. Vicksburg was a beautiful city, full of historical buildings and charm. Dixie was currently walking down Washington street, passing people who did give her a second glass. Dixie figured she must fir in with the attire she was wearing,. across the river was louisiana, vickburg sat right on the river and the border between Mississippi and Louisiana

Meanwhile, back with the Gang at the Restaurant:
"Daphne and I will share a Double Double special with the Chocolate Malted, Miss" Freddie said to the Waitress. "So Gang, does anyone know where we're going to stay while where here in Vicksburg?"

"I'll be right back from the kitchen in a quick second, I have to get in your hungry friends To-Go Order!" said the Waitress, mumbling something else about how scary the town's gotten.

"Hopefully it'll be a real ghost this time for sure." Daphne added. "Just imagine if we're faced with some real Confederate ghosts" (She shivers) "That would be really cool" "So tell us, what are some of the things that have been happening at the fort?"

A huge strong hand gripped Shaggy and Velma’s shoulders, a figure with a weathered face, dressed in a khaki suit and wide brimmed hat lent over them. “Terrible things, I tell you terrible things, sounds of long dead soldiers marching into battle, the screams of the dying, cannon fire, rifle fire and above all the terrible, terrible silence of a finished battle. Worst of all the citizens of Vicksburg have risen and stalk the land looking for what they have lost why the even turned on one of our fine law officers… we pray for her recovery.” The figure nodded his head sadly “Kids, if you want to keep your sanity… go enjoy yourselves. This is a lovely city, visit the malls, eat at the restaurants, gentleman promenade with you ladies at your side and soak up the atmosphere, catch a show at the showboat, relax and enjoy. When you have done that….” The figure leant down to look Shaggy in the eye “if you value your lives be somewhere else…” he turned to look at Velma “if you value your sanity forget you have heard of this place.”
He released Shaggy and Velma’s shoulders and walked out of the restaurant, at the door her turned to face them and spoke in low ominous tones “If you value your lives, remember.” With that he walked out of the restaurant.
"And don't come back Volkendorf!" the manager yelled at the closed door. He walked over to the gang with an apologetic look on his face. "I'm sorry kids, don't you mind him, he's just some washed-up archaeology professor who's drifted in from out of state. He's been snooping around ever since, well never you mind. Say 'cause of that this is on the house, except for you two." the manager pointed at Shaggy and Scooby as he spoke the last part.

"Well Gang, It looks like we have a MYSTERY on our hands!" says Fred [[cues applause]]. "Lets pay up and head to the Mystery Machine. Ah, here's the bill. ". "Here you go you sweet things. I don't know the name of the Showboat but they are featuring a Miss Dixie as the star of their show! " said The Waitress. Fred studies the bill " Shaggy , do you have any of Uncle Shagworthy's Fortune left to cover you and Scooby?".

Scooby recounted the time where they were chased through the showboat by the Beaureguard's Ghost.
