The last story reminds me of one of the stranger stories I came across in my genealogy travels. I was helping a Hungarian colleague to trace the fate of a family member who had left Hungary following the 1956 uprising. The guy had moved to California and married a South American woman. Later in life when in a nursing home and dementia was setting in he confessed to one of his carers that he had killed his wife and buried her in a nearby woodland. The carer reported this to the police. The tragedy was that noone had ever reported the wife as missing. He was charged with murder and spent his final days in a prison nursing home.

[@georgielancaster1356]

I did read the comment of a nurse who worked in an old people's home. She said they regularly had horrified staff reporting old people confessing to murders - and a couple of staff realised the old people were telling the stories of the movies they'd watched the last week. So you have to be careful about confessions.

[@JerryEricsson]

I was just at the local barber shop in my small town In South Dakota, USA. We got to talking about "the good old day's. While I have some warm memories of what I consider those days, in the mid-late 1950's, growing up on a dirt poor farm, my father etching a living from the small farm he received from his father upon his death, he was forced to take on his fathers debts as well because of some unforeseen ruling by a Federal Judge. So 1/3 of every dollar he earned went to the Federal Government and finding enough money to buy both groceries, gas and whiskey was difficult. Often we lived off cottontail rabbits, game birds and an occasional deer usually taken out of season with dad's .22 rifle. Winters were damn cold in that old house grandfather built in 1910 with newspapers tacked inside the walls to block the draft, tarpaper nailed on the outside of the house, we often woke in the morning, having spent the night on the second story seeing heavy frost on the roofing nails that stuck through the unfinished ceiling. Light at night came from kerosene lamps, the Aladdin lamps were reserved for company. We had a battery pack radio that was well regulated and kept atop a tall writing desk, out of reach of we children. But it made for a good imagination, in fact I have sold some fiction in my day when I have the urge to take up pen and express myself, and mom is still with us, now 96 years old living in the nursing home a few blocks from the house I purchased when I returned to our home town after a career in law enforcement. I know they were not that great, but we thought we had something back then. When we moved to town because heavy smoking and drinking took it's toll on fathers health, we learned that we in fact, had nothing at all. After 71 years on this old rock, I have some great memories, the best of which were made with my wonderful wife by my side, after 51 years and 4 days she was taken from me by the evil that is Cancer. It has been over two years since I lost her, not a day has gone by that I have not shed a tear when I think of her lovely face, and how I held her hand for her last 2 days on earth, until well after her soul departed to be with God.

Poor “Bella.” It strikes me as so sad that she was never reported missing by anyone, and never claimed after her remains were found. Hearing about the clothing she wore, I couldn’t help but imagine her putting on that pretty taffeta slip, her skirt, sweater and belt on what turned out to be the last day of her life. It is such a mark of how she was a young woman like so many we all know. And yet to this day, no one knows who she was in life. I wonder if there is anyway to use forensic DNA where they trace the victim’s DNA to known DNA and create a family tree, to see if they can place her within a given family. Whoever she was, I hope she is resting in peace.

I always wonder how you would feel, if supposedly on your death bed you confessed to a terrible crime- then lived. However it's just occurred to me that perhaps sometimes confession was a type of boast, rather than a clearing of the conscience. We are always being shown, in fiction, that criminals and killers like to boast. It must be worse if you've gotten away with it for thirty or forty years. Nobody to appreciate how clever you've been, so, assured you're dying, you tell your story. (Aunty will forever be remembered if she confesses to killing those three husbands!) Then you close your eyes and wait for death's soft touch...only to wake up twelve hours later to find a policeman standing guard.

I certainly did say "well I never". I'd never heard of that sad murder in Rayleigh, Essex. I worked with a lady once whose father had become paraplegic following an industrial accident, and he held his whole family in fear of his temper. Despite him being confined to a wheelchair and unable to physically harm them, everyone in the house tiptoed around him and tried not to set him off. Incidentally, Rochford is pronounced with the CH as in cheese, not rock. It's a small village/town a few miles from Rayleigh. I regularly visit Rayleigh for a walk around the Rayleigh Mount and the high street small shops.

[@Lauriej117]

So Archibald was physically abusive, which is disgusting. I wonder why the wife and children just didn’t go upstairs or outside, since Archibald couldn’t chase them due his physical limitations . Also, just take his damn bell away so he wouldn’t be able to pester his family about trivial matters. There are all different ways of avoiding someone who has impaired mobility. The man terrorized his family and his son thought of a fail proof method of getting rid the family abuser. No sympathy here for Archibald. Too bad the family couldn’t find a different way of getting away from Archibald that wasn’t illegal.

[@mimsydreams]

He would likely yell and make a racket, if he didn't have the bell. They could leave the house and ignore him, but eventually had to return. His abuse was probably worse, when they didn't jump to his every whim. The only peace they had was when he was away for a walk with his nurse. Too bad she was injured in the explosion. Blowing him up was an extreme plan, though. The son could have poisoned him or shoved him down some stairs. I think the son wanted it to be over the top and severely punishing to his father.

[@Lauriej117]

@@mimsydreams They should have soundproofed a room, put him in room and just attend to him for basic needs, or put him in a facility so they didn’t have to deal with his crap.

I don’t recommend doing it though, since it is illegal. I’m just talking theoretically. 🙂

[@brick6347]

I've been thinking a lot about your last question this week. Is it right that a 90+ year old man evades justice because of his age? Well, if you recall in Canada a few days ago they gave a standing ovation to an elderly SS officer... that old man (allegedly) committed many of his crimes near where I live, possibly even on my street. There are still a few very elderly witnesses alive, and many of his (alleged) victims' children and grandchildren still live here. They deserve some sort of closure. And I added allegedly because I do believe in innocent until proven guilty, even for the most heinous of crimes. But murder has no statute of limitations, so whether you're 19 or 90 you should stand trial. I'd even be open to him appearing via zoom or something if he's genuinely too ill or frail to travel, but I think it's important that the truth comes out.

[@eveny119]

He admitted it so the truth is out. England would have to spend a ton of money; transportation, court costs, so he can die in a London Hospital, or spend a month in prison. Doesn't England rule over Canada? Canada should just hold him. I remember a case of a serial killer left the US and was caught in Canada and Canada wouldn't send him back.

You answered your own question when you said the "nurse lowered him into the chair." When you are lowered into a chair you weigh less because of the counteracting force of the person lowering you.

[@alphooey]

She definitely should have been held accountable

[@catraoinekelly2879]

Thoroughly enjoyed that, as I do all your videos-- from Belfast 💚🍀

[@IanLawrie-l9q]

Compelling and awesome. You always bring the nuance of the past to life.

[@marykrueger6039]

Another great job as always. Love the channel and the multiple story format. Keep up the great work Sir. 👍👍

[@Eleanoraaaaa]

Honestly, I don’t blame the guy in the first story. I personally believe victims of abuse have every right to punish their abuser

The bath chair story made me laugh out loud. I watched this upload over a week ago and had to return to cheer me up after waking up this afternoon with a bad hangover. It's so funny I have had to share it. I know laughing is in bad taste but it is absolutely hilarious.

It's Funny If You Are NOT The Victim.

Maybe it wasn't the device....maybe he shouldn't have light the match.😄

[@SeventhSwell]

Coming from the Black Country (near to Birmingham and Hadley) I grew up hearing the story of Bella in the Wych Elm. Even now, "Who put Bella in the Wych Elm" still appears on walls etc. I doubt we'll ever find out who Bella was but her legend will live on

[@Ref-987]

Me too!!

[@amandakidwell1740]

They should write a song about her.....

[@julieblackstock8650]

I am amazed you have covered the Rayleigh murder! I used to live near there and I never even heard of it until I went to Rayleigh Museum

[@RobinHood-1961]

With the Margaret Cook case, at least it's no longer a cold case. And killing someone with an anti tank grenade? My wife heard this and she said she can't believe someone actually thought of that. That's a classic.

[@mrjones2721]

It sounds like Archibald got what was coming to him. It’s too bad that the nurse was wounded and that Eric had to go away for so long.

[@darrensinnott2197]

Just discovered this channel..Fantastic narration!!!

[@kathypaterson2530]

Brilliant, as ever. Thank you for these x

[@rogersledz6793]

Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me get through the pandemic!

[@selenaherring1279]

Hello Mr.Paul I want to say thank you so much for the history videos. I love history. Happy Birthday Month Mr.Paul

[@amy43215]

Fully enjoying the longer videos and compilations

[@lunaskye621]

I truly despise people who make confessions like murder on their death beds. They never cared about the victim but only for themselves and what retribution they could face. I believe a confession isn’t enough, the perpetrator needs to have worked to make amends.

[@Adrian-zd4cs]

My birthday was the 6th! Happy Birthday month Paul! 🥰🎂🎉

[@jax8187]

Thoroughly enjoy this episode, as always. Thank you.

[@Victoria-wz9ub]

Excellent, as always. 😊

[@qrufus]

If a police composite was made of Margaret's killer (and still exists), the police could do a comparison between that and photos of the 91 year old from the time of the murder (give or take 5 -10 years). Then do a background check to see if he even was near the area at the time.

I'm fighting Breast Cancer for the 2nd time. Research is very important 👌, but at this time we are already donating here in the US. Bless you for your kindness 🙏

[@WellINever]

Stay strong and keep fighting! Best wishes 🙏
