Deadly Ideas
You are travelers from afar visiting the Town of Pictou for a time before moving onto your next destination. While in Town, you pick up a copy of the local newspaper. The headlines of the Pictou Advocate read in strong bold print. "Founder of the proposed Academy, Dr. Thomas McCulloch found dead." What makes it worse is that no one knows what happened. Was it murder or an accident? The local sheriff, Donald MacDougall has narrowed down his investigation to three suspects and one additional theory. Was it Rev. Alexander Bain, an Anglican Minister and teacher at King's College, who made clear his opposition for a non-sectarian academy? Or could it have been George Glennie, head of the local grammar school of Pictou, who was filled with rage when half of his pupils suddenly decided to attend Mr. McCulloch's cabin school in stead of his? Or was it Pictou's Mayor and government leader, David Matheson, when his power and government suddenly is threatened by McCulloch's "head full of radical ideas" and his influence on the people? Or could it have been simply an accident at his home?
The locals' minds are scattered, and you figure your viewpoint from the outside, having not known the victim, or the suspects, that you may be able to shed some light on the investigation. Sheriff MacDougall agrees and has asked you to solve th mystery of Dr. Thomas McCulloch's death and restore peace among the people of Pictou.
It is up to YOU to solve the mystery of what happened to Dr. Thomas McCulloch!
