Murder Mystery

A Memory of Ightham.

Before my father passed away, he told me of a murder at the Mote House (Ightham Manor). Apparently, my great aunt Alice worked there as a housekeeper, when the murder of Caroline Mary Luard took place in 1908. She was found shot in the summerhouse - the case was never solved. Before my aunt died, she told my father that the murderer was the Major, (Caroline's husband). I dont know how accurate this is, but quite interesting don't you think?
