Show notes

Markham and Vance narrow the suspects down to 4 men- but more imnportantly, Vance changes Markham's thinking about the nature of the suspect.

He also believes that Skein was present, hiding in the closet, and saw the murder through the keyhole.

BEST OF (#2 OF 351) THE LEGEND OF BETSY ROSS Aug 23, 2024

Show notes

Betsy Ross is credited as being the seamstress who stitched our first "Stars and Stripes", but some historians say that there is no proof of it. The story was handed down through her family and shared by her grandson William Canby at a Philadephia celebration of our Declaration of Independence in 1876.

Betsy Ross suffered the fate of many wives during the American Revolution, losing two husbands to the war. Her can-do attitude and her willingness to help her country in any way she could is still honored today.

Music by our friend Dusty Roads.
