the murder left it in the saloon for
Walling."
Walling testified otherwise
Jackson carried that bag the night we
met Pearl Bryan at the depot. We'd been
gonna take her TO Indiana. Between trains
we went to this saloon. Dusty had a pocket
full of cocan"
So the wretched story came out. The poor
girls beer was drugged with cocain, but this
monstrous Micky Finn failed to take notice
able effect.
The boys had bit of coke themselves,
and Jackson, fiendishly inspired showed a
furtive knife and whispered to his chum TO
fetch a hack
Walling (good palD sat up front with the
driver. directing the cabman to head for
Kentucky. They crossed the river in the
night, and finally parked near the lonely
orchard Jackson and Pearl, arm in arm,
sauntered off in the darkness.
The cabby frightened, took to heel. Wall
ing waited, fidgeting.
At last Jackson returned-alone-car
the suitcase His coat was dark-stained and
sticky, and he shed it, telling Wally to hide
il in a sewer.
I'VE drove back to town and parted COM
pany," Wally ended sourly

then Detectives Grim, McDermott
and Bulmer, shadowing Jacksons
rooming house and haunts in Gin
cinnati, spied their man at the cor
ner Of Plum and Court streets
They closed in quietly, cornering him under
a street lamp.
Your names Scott Jackson, isn't it?
Good! Come along"
At Central Station, Police Chief Deitsch
growled,- We'll Dusty tJaekson's niekname),
it looks like we've got you"
yes" the student agreed drearily, at
looks like it,"
1t looked worse than that when he was
hustled into the office of Mayor Caldwell to
be confronted by that dignitary, the city
coroner, grim buecoats and his weeping col
lege chum, Alonzo Walling. Alonzo, arrested
in another part of town, had already been
talking.
Now he pointed the accusing finger
Tell them you did it, Dusty"
Dusty Jackson glared.
Why should I, Alonzo when il was you?
For two days thereafter this unsavory pair
spent their time denouncing each other.
In the 1905 there was a good deal of
nonsense about physiognomy and phrenology
Jackson had his head examined by Sergeant
Kiffmeyer "a recognized authority on Grim
inals," who said:
jackson has a head like Napoleon's He
has the cunning to plot and plan and is in
capable Of remorse. Jackson is a natural
monster, or monstrosity whichever you will
Isn't that the face of a criminal?"
Kiffmeyers diagnosis was surprisingly &C
curate, for check-up revealed that Jackson
tried for embezzlement in Jersey City, had
moved to Ohio to conceal rancid reputation
and then did little to conceal it in the local
saloons
Meantime, in his favorite bar room, an
empty but cory suitcase was found; the bar
tender declared it Jackson's
Jackson denied ownership. So the police
made him sit in the mayors office with the
suitcase on his knee for a couple of hours, his
eyes fixed on the crimson interior This con-
centration refreshed his memory.
Il guess it's mine. I didn't recognize IL at
first it's so blood-stained. The night before

The cab driver the sticky coat, the drug
gist who'd sold the cocain were found. Not
so Pearls head
Parents, relatives, police and lawyers
begged, pleaded and wept, but the dreadful
dental students refused to divulge the hiding
place.
Jackson said Walling buried it. Walling
said Jackson threw it in the river
Even when dragged to the morgue and
forced to stand beside Pearls open coffin,
facing her outraged family, the CHASTITY pair
refused to come clean.
Their trial, opening April 7, 1896, occa-
stoned a nationwide sensation.
The boys. guilty Haman, were soon
condemned to have their precious necks
broken on the gallows but even then the case
continued to provide headlines.
Yellowback novels, pamphlets, sermons fea-
tured the murder for months.
Pearl headless STILL was buried with elab-
crate public ceremony, and her misfortune
celebrated by the popular ballad Pearl
Bryans Fate, "the only original song sung by
G. S. Knight at Heck & Averys Museum"
One can imagine the line Il lost my head
over you" Copies at IS cents, and they sold
like hot cakes.

factory recognized them as manufactured by
Drew, Selby & Company of Portsmouth, Ohio.
He at once contacted the makers who advised
him that the odd-sized shoes had been shipped
along with eight other pairs to Louis & Hays
General Store, Greencastle, Indiana
Poock notified the Cincinnati police and
Detectives Grim and McDermott raced to
Greencastle.
There, Salesman Spivy was able to recall
selling the shoes to young woman who lived
on nearby farm. The detectives hurried to
the given address where the girls mother at
once recognized the blood-stained dress my
Pearl! It's my PEARL"
Thus the victim was identified as Pearl
Bryan, youngest daughter in the respected
Bryan family of Greencaste.
Pearl according TO contemporary accounts,
was beautiful in form and features highly
accomplished, well educated with a doting
father and mother She was admired by ALL
but while of lovable affectionate disposition
she allowed none to go beyond the line of
admiration, and Cupds swift and seldom
erring shafts fell harmlessly by her side"
Then Cupid's aim seems to have improved
A week before the finding of the body
Pearl had left home, announcing her intention
to visit friends" in indianapolis. Needless
to say she never arrived there
But who had sidetracked her TO that lonely
orchard near Fort Thomas? What "fiend in
human form" had decapitated the unhappy
girl? News of her identity only heightened
the mystery.
Grim and McDermott, sleuthing around
Greencastle, centered their attention on Will
Wood Pearls payboy cousin
Wood, "a somewhat reckless youth of 90"
had often squirrel his attractive cousin Pearl
to dances, but he hastily denied authorship of
her murder and decaptaton Appearing with
his father before Chief Deitsch and the Mayor
of Cincinnati, he made a fearful statement
naming Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling
fellow students in the Ohio Dental College, as
ominous possibilities.
Proving an altbi on the murder-night, Will
Wood was exoneratcd.
Now excitement mounted TO fever pitch
as police spread a dragnet for Jackson and
Walling through the Ohio River Valley.
For several days they had poor hunting,
