The Bottle in the Cedar Post That Sent a Sheriff to Death

A hidden bottle in a hollow cedar post contained $40 in cash and a receipt signed by the county sheriff for six cases of bonded rye - and that sealed bottle would unravel a two-year corruption scheme and link to the death of a 22-year-old bookkeeper. Who hid the receipt and why was the sheriff’s signature on contraband paperwork?
In this episode, we lay out the timeline from Lori Burns's last walk to work to the surveyor's discovery in a field, tracing the documents, routines, and interviews that raised the central question: how did a meticulous bookkeeper’s records and a sealed bottle expose a sheriff?
Person: Lori Burns
Date: June 4, 1931 (last seen) / June 5, 1931 (body found)
Location: Milestone Road, eastern Dellard County, Missouri
Person: Sheriff Thomas Edwards
Item: Receipt dated May 3, 1931 for six cases of bonded rye whiskey
- Lori Burns walked the same one-mile route to work every Tuesday and Thursday, leaving at 5:10 pm and arriving by 5:30 pm.
- Her body was found June 5, 1931 in a drainage culvert about 200 yards off Milestone Road, struck on the back of the head and still wearing her work apron.
- A sealed glass bottle discovered June 11, 1931 contained roughly $40 in cash and a handwritten receipt dated May 3, 1931.
- The receipt inside the bottle listed delivery of six cases of bonded rye whiskey to the Milestone Road Roadhouse and was signed by Sheriff Thomas Edwards.
- On June 7, 1931, Sheriff Edwards questioned delivery driver Richard Holmes, age 38, who claimed he delivered to Albert Denny’s farm and returned by 7:00 pm on June 4.
