Dark Bathroom

Reported by Desk Sergeant Moriarty of Central City Police, as he recalled it.

Maggie Wilson found dead by Lizzie Miller.

Miss Miller gave the following statement:

Miss Miller roomed in the same house as Maggie Wilson but knew her only as they met in the hall. She thought Maggie was subject to "fits" (seizures). A couple of male friends came to see Maggie regularly. On Sunday night in early November 1896, the men were there and there was a good deal of drinking going on. Some time after they left, Lizzie heard the water still running in the bathroom. Upon opening the door, she found the scene as set forth in the model.
