Recently received radio-telegraph dispatches report disturbing news from the Great Plains Line's flagship, the transcontinental airship Meriwether.
A Shocking Murder
has occurred, a young maid attending to the cabin of the notable Count Reginald Worthington, Duke of San Fransisco, having been found lifeless on the floor of Lady Lucy Worthington's chambers.
The Star of the Orient Stolen
from the safe in the chamber of said Lady Worthington. The star, a singular gem said to have once adorned the turban of the Tipoo Sultan is beyond estimable value.
Agent Herschel Winchester
of the United States Department of Justice has been in contact with Captain Emanuel Abraham and awaits arrival of the Meriwether this evening at the St Louis airdocks.
Expect to read a full and complete account of this tragic chain of events when Penny Dread Tales, Volume One is released in May, from Rune Wright Publishing.
