Hi, and welcome back to The
Unseen Podcast, a podcast dedicated to missing

2
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:21.519
people, unresolved cases, and UK
true crime. Today we are exploring a

3
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:25.760
case which drew me in due to
the strangeness of the situation and the odd

4
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:30.480
reporting on it, as well as
how mysterious it appeared to be. It's

5
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:35.159
no secret that I enjoy covering historical
cases, and with the murder of Nancy

6
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:39.600
Patterson in nineteen thirty two, the
odd and vague details, as well as

7
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:43.920
the large amount of speculation in the
small town in Cumbria, makes it just

8
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:50.200
a different kind of case. The
sad fact is since nineteen thirty two there

9
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:54.840
has been little to no reporting on
her unsolved murder, and sadly it looks

10
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:58.920
to have been forgotten by many people, but I'm sure not by her family.

11
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:04.159
This episode contains descriptions that may distress
some listeners, including the brief mention

12
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:11.760
of suicide, so listener discretion is
always advised. Workington is a coastal town

13
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:15.879
which is located on the west coast
of England in the area of Cumberland in

14
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:22.680
the County of Cumbria. Cumbria is
perhaps best known for the Lake District National

15
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:25.719
Park, are just the Lakes,
as many people call it. In the

16
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:30.319
Northwest. The Lake District is known
for its beautiful lakes and scenery and mountain

17
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:37.159
landscapes, and is inspired many people, including artists William Wordsworth and Arthur Beatrix

18
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:42.400
Potter, who wrote the Peter Rabbit
series of books. It's a UNESCO World

19
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:47.000
Heritage Site and is today and was
in the past a very popular destination for

20
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:53.439
visitors and for people who love hiking
and doing sports on the water. Workington

21
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:59.159
is located around forty five miles away
from the Lake District National Park at the

22
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.640
mouth of the River a Durwan.
It's an area that has been associated with

23
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:07.759
the production of coal and steel,
and many people historically worked in these industries.

24
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:14.680
When these industries began to decline in
the UK, Workington, like many

25
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:21.879
other areas, struggled with high unemployment
and dissatisfaction. Since then, Workington has

26
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.120
had a revamp of its high street
and in two thousand and six a new

27
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:29.000
shopping center was built to replace an
area which had been built in the nineteen

28
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:35.560
seventies. Today, Workington is a
mostly residential area with under thirty thousand people.

29
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.000
During the nineteen thirties, Workington was
still very much a working town,

30
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:45.879
with many of the people employed in
either the coal or the steel sector.

31
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:51.560
It was certainly a place where local
people were known well to one another.

32
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.039
During the week following the third of
January nineteen thirty two, local man Thomas

33
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.759
bailey Hill was increasingly cons earned about
his sister in law, Nancy Patterson.

34
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.400
He and his wife, Nancy's sister, had last seen her on Sunday,

35
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.759
January the third, and she headed
out from their home on Vulcan's Lane to

36
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:19.159
the Congressional Church in Workington around five
to six that evening. Nancy usually visited

37
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:22.280
the church on a Sunday night,
and so this didn't seem out of the

38
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:27.639
ordinary. She usually returned to the
home that they shared when the service had

39
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:32.719
finished, and was normally back before
eight pm. Nancy was her usual self

40
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:38.240
that evening, and nothing seemed out
of the ordinary. Thomas had gone out

41
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:43.639
himself that night to the Hippodrome and
had got back at around nine thirty pm.

42
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:46.800
It was then that he was alerted
by his wife to the fact that

43
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:53.680
Nancy hadn't yet come home. This
was certainly out of character for her,

44
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:59.199
as she never stayed out that late
after she'd been to church. Thomas decided

45
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:00.919
that he would go out to try
and look for her, and he searched

46
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:05.800
around the town. However, he
couldn't find her by eleven twenty five.

47
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:10.240
That night, he and his wife
were so worried that they reported this to

48
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:15.520
the police. Thomas Hill and his
wife told the police that twenty eight year

49
00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.839
old Nancy lived with them as she
had no parents since her mother had passed

50
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:25.639
away a while back. They explained
that Nancy was very reserved and usually kept

51
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:30.439
herself to herself. She didn't have
any male friends as far as they were

52
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.680
aware, and usually had a very
similar routine, and so they believed that

53
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:39.839
something could have happened to her.
They also added that Nancy had her own

54
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:46.399
private means and had around eighteen to
twenty shillings a week for herself. It

55
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.560
would later be reported that after her
mother's death, Nancy was given around fifteen

56
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:56.199
hundred pounds in inheritance to live on. This was the equivalent of around eighty

57
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:01.160
six thousand pounds in today's money.
According to Nancy's sister and brother in law,

58
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.920
Nancy was relatively happy and contented,
and there didn't seem to be any

59
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:11.360
reasons why she would have just disappeared
on a whim. Workington police were initially

60
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.879
unsure what could have happened to her, and did ask around. They discovered

61
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:18.160
that she was well known in the
area due to the fact that she usually

62
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:25.720
wore black clothing. Some people in
Workington took to calling her the Black Shadow

63
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:30.319
for this reason. Despite finding out
this, there was very little evidence as

64
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:33.680
to where she could have gone after
heading out at around six pm on that

65
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:40.120
Sunday evening. That was until the
eighth of January, five days after she

66
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:46.439
disappeared. Gilbert William Jones, who
worked as a farm servant, stated that

67
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:51.160
he was walking along the beach around
thirty miles away from Workington when he noticed

68
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:56.480
something on the sand. He said
that he thought at first it was just

69
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.160
a heap of clothes. However,
when he got closer, he saw that

70
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:02.639
it was in fact the body of
a woman who was laid face first in

71
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:09.560
the sand. The woman was clearly
deceased, and Gilbert Jones quickly went to

72
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:15.160
Willer authorities. They removed the body
to the morgue to analyze it, and

73
00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:19.120
they began looking into who this woman
could be. It didn't take long for

74
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:26.240
them to establish that this was in
fact missing Nancy Patterson from Workington. Her

75
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.439
body was taken away for analysis and
a post martin was done to establish what

76
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:35.519
had happened. In the meantime,
Nancy's family were faced with the awful realization

77
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:41.759
that she had died at just twenty
eight years old. This must have been

78
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:46.759
a horrific realization, particularly for her
sister, who it appears had no other

79
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.199
family than Nancy. Nancy had been
described as an orphan and so the two

80
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:58.759
sisters seemingly only had each other.
They couldn't understand why this had happened to

81
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.680
her, or even the circumtan dances
that led to her disappearance. How had

82
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:06.160
she got thirty miles away and how
had she ended up in the water.

83
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:13.160
Police now had to try and establish
a timeline for Nancy and figure out if

84
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:18.800
there were any witnesses that evening.
They were able to track down several people

85
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:26.399
who saw Nancy after she left the
home on Vulcan's Lane. Joseph Hawthorne was

86
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.720
one of the key witnesses who saw
Nancy twice that evening. He told police

87
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:34.759
that he knew Nancy by sight and
that at around seven ten pm he saw

88
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:40.959
her at Grosser's shop on Power Street. He noticed her, particularly because she

89
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:45.279
wasn't alone. He stated that she
was with a man who he didn't know,

90
00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.959
and the man had his arm around
her neck. He explained that the

91
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:54.079
way they were walking was odd and
stood out so much that he said people

92
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:58.199
were laughing at them. While he
didn't know the man, he said that

93
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:03.079
he would recognize him if he saw
him again. Joseph Hawthorne also provided them

94
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:07.240
with another sighting of Nancy. He
said that he was coming out of the

95
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:13.399
Bessemert Arms Pub and that he saw
Nancy. This time, she was alone

96
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.360
and she was holding a handkerchief up
to her face. She appeared to look

97
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.920
distressed and kept looking behind her,
as though she was checking if someone was

98
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:26.319
following her. She was going up
Church Street in the direction of Durwent Street,

99
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:33.320
and this was after nine pm.
This struck Joseph, who thought she'd

100
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:37.000
looked quite cheerful earlier on with the
man, and now she looked worried and

101
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:41.240
concerned. This was of interest to
police, given that they needed to know

102
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:48.879
anything about her on the evening On
that Sunday. Joseph Hawthorne was not the

103
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.559
only person to have seen Nancy that
evening with a man and then alone.

104
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:58.799
Thomas Boardman also said he saw her
close to the church. This was about

105
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:01.159
seven thirty pm, and it looked
as though she was waiting for someone to

106
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:07.279
come out. Between seven thirty and
eight pm, he then saw Nancy talking

107
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.799
to a man at the post office. The man had his arm around her

108
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:16.200
waist. Between nine thirty and ten
pm, he saw her again, this

109
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:20.440
time alone. She was walking along
Brow Top in the direction of Church Street.

110
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:26.240
It would appear that both of these
witness statements lined up. Nancy was

111
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:30.360
seen with a man who had his
arm around her waist, and she appeared

112
00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:35.639
cheerful and relatively happy at this point. By nine pm to ten pm,

113
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.720
Nancy was alone, and Joseph's statements
said she now looked worried or even scared.

114
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:46.519
Nancy being out at this time at
all was unusual, and so why

115
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:52.039
was she even out? What could
have happened and what happened afterwards. It's

116
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:56.159
also crucial to say that Nancy did
not go to church that night as planned,

117
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.440
and this was also out of character
and so portant to the investigation.

118
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.240
While police were trying to establish Nancy's
movements and who she could have been with.

119
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:16.679
They were also trying to find out
whether her death was the result of

120
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:22.879
any sort of foul play. On
the fifteenth of January, around a week

121
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.000
after Nancy's body was recovered, the
Mill and Gazette stated that police were not

122
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.679
of the opinion that Nancy had been
murdered. It was stated that her death

123
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.240
must have been due to some sort
of accident or by her own means.

124
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.919
The idea that Nancy could have done
anything to herself didn't seem likely to her

125
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:46.320
family. Her brother in law explained
that Nancy had never shown any indication that

126
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:50.799
she would do this, saying Nancy
was too happy and contented a girl to

127
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:56.279
do away with herself, especially by
drowning. She was terrified of water and

128
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.720
would not even cross a bridge over
water. They believed that Nancy would never

129
00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:07.679
have done something like that. Police
had uncovered some witnesses who apparently had heard

130
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:11.759
Nancy talk about suicide in the past, including a member of the extended family

131
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.799
who said she'd once heard her say
she would take herself off or else throw

132
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:22.200
herself in the water. Another man
also stated that she had once brought up

133
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:26.799
the idea of suicide to him.
This, however, would not be the

134
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.080
last that was said on the matter, as the results of the post mortem

135
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:37.519
suggested something very different to this initial
assumption. Doctor mac fall, who worked

136
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:41.480
as a pathologist in Liverpool, gave
his opinion about his own analysis of the

137
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.159
body. He explained that Nancy's body
had many abrasions on it when it was

138
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.960
recovered. He explained where these marks
were on her body, saying that she

139
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:56.919
had abrasions on her forehead and her
cheek. She also had a small puncture

140
00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:58.879
wound on the point of her chin
and a bruise on the jaw on the

141
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:03.879
left side which was half an inch
long. On the right hand side of

142
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:07.960
her nose, she had a bruise
around a three quarters of an inch long

143
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.320
below the right side of her jaw. On her neck, she also had

144
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:16.000
a small circular bruise. There were
no bruises on her body, and she

145
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:22.360
had superficial abrasions to both of her
hands. There was no damage to her

146
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.639
whimpipe and her tongue was swollen.
Doctor McFall concluded that the bruises and marks

147
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:33.120
on her nose had been recently done. He also stated that she had died

148
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:39.679
within five hours of eating food.
This was significant as Thomas Bailey Hill stated

149
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:43.840
that she had last eaten some bread
and butter around four or fifteen the afternoon.

150
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:50.360
Of course, it's unknown if she'd
eaten after this. The most important

151
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:56.279
finding was cause of death. Doctor
McFall concluded that this was due to asphyxia,

152
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:01.039
but there was nothing to show that
this was caused by drowning. He

153
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:05.159
actually ruled out drowning in the usual
way as the cause of her death.

154
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:13.480
This conclusion clears some things up,
but actually confuses others. It establishes that

155
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:18.559
Nancy had died as a result of
asphyxia, perhaps prior to going into the

156
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:22.000
water, and a later expert,
doctor James Queerer, later said that the

157
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:26.919
bruises were caused before her death and
they were sufficient enough to cause her harm.

158
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.000
The conclusion did seem to rule out
that Nancy had done this to herself,

159
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:39.159
despite the medical professionals unable to completely
rule it out without further evidence.

160
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.879
However, a later inquest would establish
that she had died as a result of

161
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:50.320
murder by person or persons unknown.
The mystery was who was this person or

162
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:58.639
persons and why did they want to
kill Nancy Patterson. The man seemed with

163
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:01.720
his arm around Nancy was of course
a major person of interest in this case,

164
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:05.480
as he had seem to be with
her by multiple witnesses on the evening

165
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:09.879
that she disappeared. It would turn
out that they were in luck with this,

166
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:16.240
as the man in question voluntarily turned
up to speak to police. The

167
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:20.559
man named Charles Robson said he came
forward to police, as quoted in the

168
00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:24.039
Sunderland Daily Echo, I thought it
was best to give myself up and say

169
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:28.639
I was in her company. He
said he'd met her by appointment and that

170
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:33.519
they had spent around three hours together, from around five to six until around

171
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.559
five to nine. He said that
she seemed cheerful in his company and there

172
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:41.919
didn't seem to be anything wrong.
He also said she gave him a ring

173
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:48.080
as a keepsake when they were parting. This did clear up one aspect of

174
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:50.519
the case, as they knew that
a ring was missing, but they assumed

175
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:56.960
that it had been lost when she
was in the water. Charles Robson stated

176
00:14:56.000 --> 00:15:00.679
that there had been no rough handling
and that nothing of that s had happened

177
00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:05.480
while they were together. This assertion
appears to be corroborated by the fact that

178
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.120
several witnesses did see Nancy with a
man, and none of them said that

179
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:16.200
there seemed to be anything odd or
suspicious happening. This seemed to rule out

180
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:18.480
this man as being the person they
were looking for. However, there were

181
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:24.600
still some odd sightings on that same
night that raised questions. There were several

182
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:30.759
strange sightings by residents in Workington after
this time period and closer to the ten

183
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:35.759
PM time, However, not all
of them seemed the most credible. One

184
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:41.600
of them came from a man named
Richard mckeatin. He said that he'd seen

185
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:46.360
Nancy that evening and that she had
been alone, but he couldn't account for

186
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.440
the rest of his movements that night. At the inquest, a very odd

187
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:56.080
interaction occurred between the coroner and mckeatin, implying that he may have been up

188
00:15:56.080 --> 00:16:00.639
to no good that night. The
coroner asked him if he was a peeping

189
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:06.159
tom, to which mckeatin stated not
that night. The farmer of the jury

190
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:08.480
then asked him if he'd ever been
on the peeping tom game in the mill

191
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:14.960
fields, to which mckeatin replied yes, offten. He was then asked if

192
00:16:14.960 --> 00:16:18.440
he was out on that expedition for
that purpose that night, to which McKeating

193
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:23.240
said no, we'd all been chased
by the police. There was then a

194
00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:29.039
final question of are there others that
do that, to which he said yes.

195
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:33.399
The implication in this conversation was that
there were people out there that were

196
00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:37.799
possibly watching or even starking women,
and it was some sort of game.

197
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:44.320
The implication also was that he may
have been out that night and perhaps that

198
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:48.080
was why he had noticed Nancy and
perhaps didn't want to say what he had

199
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:55.039
been doing while he noticed her.
Another man called Matthew Taylor, who was

200
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:57.639
near the River Derwent that night,
said he saw her leaning over one of

201
00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:02.360
the bridges at the stream, and
that she was twisting her gloves in her

202
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:07.240
hands while leaning over it. A
couple also remembered seeing her that night.

203
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:11.319
They were near the Navvy's bridge over
the River Derwin around ten p m.

204
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:17.319
When they saw Nancy talking to a
man. After they'd been talking for a

205
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:22.240
few moments, they both went up
the steps. After about ten minutes,

206
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:27.119
they heard the sound of a man's
footsteps running across a nearby bridge. These

207
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:32.079
times seemed to imply that Nancy was
close to the River Derwin at close to

208
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:37.200
the time when the medical experts believed
she had died around five hours after she'd

209
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:42.720
eaten, which was around four fifteen
to four thirty pm. Were any of

210
00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:48.039
these sightings credible? Nancy was apparently
well known to many of the residents in

211
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:52.960
Workington, and so it would be
plausible that these witnesses were correcting their recognition

212
00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:59.079
of her. However, their contradictory
was she with a man or was she

213
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:03.160
alone? All of the other witness
statements put her as alone during this time,

214
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.799
and so if she was alone,
who had then killed her? And

215
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:14.960
why? There are so many things
unknown about Nancy Patterson's death, and the

216
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:19.440
accounts of her evening and what she
was doing are contradictory and vague. The

217
00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:25.519
official ruling of murder by person or
persons unknown is conclusive, and it's clear

218
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:30.160
that Nancy was murdered that evening.
Was this someone who randomly chose her and

219
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:34.559
attacked her? Were any of the
people who had been chased away by police

220
00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:41.279
for being peeping Tom's involved? This
case is so strange in its entirety and

221
00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:48.000
very sad that we know so little
about Nancy herself. The fact that people

222
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.920
in the local area called her of
the black Shadow paints the picture of a

223
00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:56.319
young woman who was clearly still in
mourning for her mother but trying in some

224
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:00.599
way to move on with her life. Whatever happened to Nancy and whoever did

225
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:06.000
it, she deserved better than what
she got, and unfortunately, the person

226
00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:08.599
or people who did this have got
away with it for over ninety years,

227
00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:15.240
and most likely they took this secret
to their grave. My aim in this

228
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.680
episode is that Nancy was remembered and
what happened to her was documented, as

229
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:25.319
there have been very few mentions of
her since nineteen thirty two and she deserves

230
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:30.720
to be remembered. Thank you for
