概要
A brown calfskin shoe hung from a brick wall with a photograph pressed inside and the penciled words "She knew" on its back - found by a gas meter reader on July 19, 1923. The objects were fresh, tied with cotton twine, and pointed to a death that would reach back five years and across three towns; who left them, and why, is the question that won't let go.
In this episode, we walk through the discovery in Millhaven and the life that preceded it, tracing the unsent letter, the bookkeeping errors, and the people who noticed small, precise habits. How did a routine ledger spotting lead to a murder, and who used the Alderton Arms back door the night Susan Myers died?
Person: Susan Myers
Date: July 19, 1923
Location: Millhaven, Indiana
Age: 38
Occupation: Bookkeeper
- The shoe was a woman's left, brown calfskin, size five, recently resoled with pale stitching and hung by cotton twine from a nail on the rear brick wall.
- Inside the heel were three letters and a date: "S.M. - July one."
- The photograph showed a woman by a white clapboard church; on its back, in pencil, were the words "She knew."
- Susan Myers had moved to Millhaven eight months earlier, kept a tortoiseshell cat named Biscuit fed at 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., and worked for Millhaven Feed and Grain Company.
- Susan had discovered four months of falsified invoices for feed supplements and had written an unsent letter to her employer, Frederick Haas, planning to deliver it on July 21; she was killed the night of July 18.
