Francis Michael Everett was born in 1895. He stood 5’8” tall, with blue eyes and dark hair. Once a week, often on Tuesday or Wednesday, he would walk home alone from work and on other days, he would travel with friends, often stopping at the Woodlands Hotel for a drink. He was fond of the folk song ‘Whiskey in the Jar’ and would often hum it to himself. He also had a slight limp, from a shrapnel wound in his right leg.

And on the morning of July 22nd, 1932, Frank Everett was 37 years old.
