The well house at Sandusky

Ohio · United States · House

The McGreen family were given money and left it in the wagon overnight while they argued about what to do with it. In the morning it was gone.

The account is set in Sandusky, Ohio in the 1800s.

The McGreen family were given a sum of money as a gift. They could not agree on what to do with it, so they left it in the wagon overnight to sleep on the decision.

When they woke, the money was gone.

According to the story, Mr McGreen killed his entire family and then hanged himself in the well.

No record has been produced for any of it and it should be read as local legend. The shape of it is old: a gift that destroys the household it was meant to help, which is a story people have been telling each other for a very long time before anyone in Ohio told it.

Things are reported at the well house, which is what remains of the property.
