On the morning of Tuesday, 29th December 1903, a notice was posted outside of Walton gaol prison;

"I, Arthur Price, surgeon of his Majesty's prison of Liverpool, hearby certify that I this day examined the body of Henry Bertram Starr, on whom judgement of death was passed, and that on examination I found Henry Bertram Starr was dead."

And with this, it would bring to an end the sad tale of how a young man with a promising career in poetry, had ruined his own life by allowing himself to wander down the path of the so-called, demon drink.

Blackpool, I think it's safe to say, has seen its fair share of violent and gruesome crimes over the last hundred years or so and this next story is no different.
