The Mason lid that proved she hadn't starved
In this episode, we follow the discovery at Melissa Hayes’s farmhouse and the details that caught county coroner’s deputy Paula Whitfield’s eye. The scene raises a single question that drives the investigation: what did that new Mason jar lid mean?
Person: Melissa Hayes
Date: March 7, 1936
Location: Garfield County, Oklahoma
Person: Paula Whitfield
Person: Kevin Foster
- Robert Wallace, a road-grader operator, detoured and found Melissa seated at her kitchen table and did not touch anything before leaving.
- Paula Whitfield, a 38-year-old coroner’s deputy with self-taught toxicology, examined the scene and recorded “Not yet satisfied.”
- Every jar lid in the pantry was aged and darkened except one bright silver Mason jar lid on the windowsill, sealed recently.
- Melissa had butchered her last chicken six weeks before her death, and she’d lived alone on a failing wheat farm through drought and Depression.
- Kevin Foster, the hired hand who lived fifty feet from the back door, had managed the property since 1933 and had regular access to the kitchen.
