Anyone else in the 40-50 (or so) age group remember reading this book in school? It was called Weakfoot back then, but has since been retitled The Ghost of Cramer's Island. I'm thinking it was also a tv movie. Yep, just found online where it was on The Wonderful World of Disney, called the Ghost of Cypress Swamp.

It was definitely one of the books that started my interest in hounds.

Here's a clip from the tv movie:
