A man was dead at his desk, a brass telegraph key locked in the send position at 6:14 a.m., and the last log entry was written as if he were still alive - so who pressed the key and signed the line? The deliberate quarter-turn locking mechanism and an exterior-latched coal door point to someone who knew the station’s routines; what motive kept the circuit live while a body sat in the chair?
In this episode, we present the events at the Caldwell Flats relay station on the morning of September 4, 1893, the physical evidence found at the scene, and the odd habits and routines that framed the crime; could the entry at 6:14 and the locked key be the clearest witness to what happened that night?
Person: Brian Wallace
Date: September 4, 1893
Location: Caldwell Flats relay station
Status: Deceased
Case: Locked telegraph key and last log entry at 6:14 a.m.
- Wallace was 46 years old and had worked the night shift at Caldwell Flats for 11 years.
- The last relay log entry was timestamped 6:14 a.m. and written in a hand that resembled Wallace’s.
- The brass transmission key required deliberate downward pressure and a quarter-turn to lock in send position.
- The coal passage door at the rear was latched from the outside and could be opened with a thin flat piece of metal.
- The county physician found hemorrhaging in both eyes and throat bruising consistent with large hands; there were no defensive wounds.
