WHY DID THEY ENTOMB THIS MAN IN A MAUSOLEUM, COVER HIM IN CEMENT, NO CASKET, AND THROW AWAY THE KEY?

[@CraigBarron-os9it]

Wow. Finally a relative is revealed in a cemetery video. He was indeed, a bad, bad man. He gambled almost his entire life's savings, and when he got cursed, he bought this mausoleum, just to prove the other guy "wrong" but he found out he could not afford a coffin, or casket as you guys call them, so he was just put in there, no casket, no blankets to lie on, just the concrete floor, they put him in there, the door did have a key lock to begin with, but they decided to put bricks over and around his body, then put concrete over the bricks, to completely seal him in, then sealed up the door with concrete after they locked the door, and threw the key into the river, which to this day, I'm pretty sure that the key has never been retrieved from the river bed. Great video as always Scott. Thanks mate. Cheers from Down Under.

[@stevedallas4942]

You're related to him? Ok. Why the bricks and concrete? Wouldn't a pine box been cheaper and easier? Just curious. Oh, I'm not nitpicking, but there's a difference between a coffin and a casket... A coffin is a narrow box, tapering to the feet, wide at the shoulders, with a nail down lid. Very cheap and quick to make. Common in photos of Old West gun fighters if you want to see an example of the period style. A casket is large, quite heavy to carry (I've carried plenty of them), rectangular, with a hinged lid and locks. Usually ornamented at the corners, with folding handles for the Pall Bearers, and usually not cheap to buy. Just info 😀 Have a good one!

[@CraigBarron-os9it]

@@stevedallas4942 thanks for the info but I do know the difference. As for being related to him, it's WAY back down the family tree line ok, he was a real bad dude, and according to family members AFTER him, he was never spoken about again, after what he did. Not sounding nasty but that's how life is, or was back then. Our family these days, don't even talk about him when we keep adding to the family tree. We just go "oh him, yeah he was a bad dude", and move on.

[@stevedallas4942]

@@CraigBarron-os9it lol we've got a few like that too. One not only ripped off a train with the Dalton Gang, but then ripped off the Daltons!!! He spent the rest of his life hiding under names of dead relatives. Shake the family tree and nuts fall out, right?

And wow when you look at photos of him outside Blackburn train station until you look at his grave he was a tall man. He's in the Guinness book of record's as well.... I do find all your post via KZbin very interesting and I look forward to you popping up with another interesting story so horrific and some like this one full of your country's history.

[@flocosta]

Scott, you amaze me at the stories you can find to tell us. This man was definitely in fear over this curse put on him. I wonder if being buried in concrete like that preserved his body. For some reason, I feel like it would. No air or bugs could get in to bring on decomposition or further it. Anyway, curses ... I know of someone very close to me who did that to people who annoyed him, and those curses worked. I thought it was horrible what he did to people, but I didn't know him at the time he was doing this. I only know the stories he told me, and they were bad about what happened to the cursed people. I'm glad I am not around this person anymore. I think he was possessed. RIP Wiley ❤ 💐

[@vicvega3614]

I would imagine hes pretty well preserved. There are stories of bridge builders and highway workers falling into wet concrete and theres nothing they can do to get them out. They are apart of the bridge forever

If that entire thing is solid concrete, it would have had to have been poured over a period of days if not weeks because when you pour something that thick, if you do it all at once it will never fully cure and crack badly. In fact if it was all poured at once then it would be likely there's still liquid concrete in the center. Just think of the Hoover dam... They had to do it in layers and small sections at a time because if they had gone all at once and he's kept pouring, it would have not been very well constructed and collapse or failed pretty quickly. Super neat though and I love stories like this. Intriguing, lol. Thanks for sharing this with us, Scott!

There was a tree here in the town I live that was I can’t remember what they said 400-500 years old. It was admired and kinda protected by the people. It was right by our library and then a company doing some work in the area had it cut down. A lot of people were pissed as was I. That tree went back before we were a nation, before the American revolution, French and Indian war, and not long after the Roanoke settlement.
