Two Australian Murder Mysteries: Fanny Perry and the Missing Men from Wonnanngata
News of the Times Episode 383 | 1888 & 1918
Today we are in Australia to take a look at two puzzling mysteries form 1888 and 1918

Our first case takes place in Melbourne with the well-known Lewis’s who are involved in the theatre world.  Behind their home, is a large shed storing large pieces of scenery from their many productions.  Suddenly, the shed begins to smell very very badly.  Their maid also has vanished.  Investigations ensue…

Our second case takes place in the remote outback.  A cattle station is visited by a local to pass on accumulated collected mail – only to find no one there.  He spends a few days waiting for the return of the two missing men, but no one appears.  He comes back three weeks later – the place is still empty and the dog is clearly starving.

The two tales of The Mysterious Death of Fanny Perry  and The Wonnanngata Murder Mystery are today’s mystery cases from Australia.
Hosted by Robin Coles.
