EP25: September 21, 1888 - I Guess I Farm Now
Episode notes
This Monday on Ghosts of the Gazette: Take a time machine and go backwards through the time waves with us back to 1888! Kendra uncovers the chilling story of ‘The Canonbury Murder’ in London England, and tells us of the sad fate of a woman whose death would cause quite a mystery and stir in the community. Even during a time when Jack the Ripper could be waiting around every corner. Then Blake takes us across the Atlantic to Lac-Mégantic, Quebec, for the wild story of notorious Canadian outlaw and former cowboy Donald Morrison. From the events that set everything in motion to his eventual capture, and how his community rallied around him while being an internationally wanted man.
Every other Monday, we dig into fascinating stories from the past — all reported and talked about in the newspapers on the exact same date (though many years ago) as the episode airs. It’s history, headlines, and a touch of mystery, all rolled into your new favourite podcast.
