Wilson's Fly pad poison

Post by Harry »

Instead of trying to buy prussic acid Lizzie should have dissolved one of these Wilson Fly pads. Check the date and price on the bottom of the ad - the same day, August 3, Lizzie is alleged to have tried to purchase 10 cents worth of prussic acid at Smith's drugstore. And no prescription needed!

That is incredible!
Lizzie could very well have gotten an idea like this from ads she saw!

Thats cool about the date, Harry! I wonder if it would have worked for a bushel of Bordens? Could Lizzie have tried poisoning with what she found laying around the house? :roll:
