Near the end of 1918, the mailcarrier arrived from Finlay Forks with the news that he had found a member of the community shot to death in his cabin up the river.
The dead mans partner was never found, so the investigators assumed he was the guilty party and that he had perished in the woods trying to escape.
Six year later, Bill Innes confessed to Shorty Webber that it had been he who had committed the murders! Burying the first man under the cabin floor while lying in wait for the second man to return home and then shooting him dead as well. Not long after this confession, Bill Innes took his own life.
