Bogle-Chandler Case - Discovery of The Bodies

Discovery of The Bodies

Dr. Bogle's body was discovered near Fullers Bridge first, by two youths searching for golf balls. They saw his body and presumed him to be drunk. When they returned an hour later to find that he had not moved and that his face had turned blue, they went to fetch help.

When police arrived at the scene they discovered that Bogle's body was half-undressed. Somebody had placed his trousers over the back of his legs in such a way that he appeared to be dressed, but was not. A piece of carpet was also laid on top of his back underneath his jacket, which was laid perfectly on his back.

Shortly after this Mrs. Chandler's body was discovered a short distance away. She was also in a state of undress, and her body had been covered with a broken up cardboard beer box. It was initially believed that she had covered Bogle's body first and then her own, but closer examination suggested that someone had covered her body as well.

Famous quotes containing the words discovery of, discovery and/or bodies:

    The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)

    As the mother of a son, I do not accept that alienation from me is necessary for his discovery of himself. As a woman, I will not cooperate in demeaning womanly things so that he can be proud to be a man. I like to think the women in my son’s future are counting on me.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    Remember all those renowned generations,
    They left their bodies to fatten the wolves,
    They left their homesteads to fatten the foxes,
    Fled to far countries, or sheltered themselves
    In cavern, crevice or hole,
    Defending Ireland’s soul.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
