Description

On a dark, rainy night in October 1900, George E. Bailey, caretaker of Breakheart Hill farm, disappeared.

He no longer made his daily milk runs to town or stopped at the tavern for his favorite cherry rum.

Some suspected foul play right away, as Bailey's "wife" had recently gone to Maine, leaving Bailey alone with his farmhand, John C.

Best, who was known to be a drunk and a potentially violent man.

Nine days later, when Bailey's dismembered body was fished out of a local pond, all eyes quickly focused on Best.

Crowds descended on the farm, and the sensational murder captured headlines in Boston's newspapers.

Using official records and newspaper archives, authors Douglas L.

Heath and Alison C. Simcox uncover the facts and bizarre circumstances of this shocking tale.
