The woman's name is Molly, and her disappearance has brought great concern and pain to her family, and everything that has happened has made the whole town of Maryborough tremble!
The police searched the whole town and conducted inspections along the river, but there were no results. As their families prepared to report on the hunt, two city council repairmen found Molly floating on the water while repairing the water tower.
It was difficult to retrieve the body in such a huge water tower, and men used ropes and pulleys to pick her up for an hour and a half.
People began to gather around her body, talking about it, and some even started to vomit because the water tower provided daily water for the town's inhabitants!
It was the town's bath, mouthwash, drinking water, and Molly was slowly dissolved in the water.
Later, there were different guesses about Molly's death:
01 conspiracy to kill
Murder's evidence is concentrated on a ladder.
There is a fixed ladder on one side of the tower, but in order to prevent children from climbing up, the repairman usually takes another portable ladder to get there.
Water tower interio
When Molly was found, there was no such ladder on the side, indicating that someone dumped the body and took it away.
02 self-killing
Molly suffers from depression and has been treated by a doctor for a long time.
Before she died, her family said she knew a Protestant businessman and was pregnant.
Molly, on the other hand, was Catholic, and two young people of different faiths, together with unmarried pregnancies, were strictly forbidden in feudal times.
The spurring of friends and the persecution of family brought down the girl who had been disappointed in the world.
Only death can preserve the girl's reputation. In the end, she chose to commit suicide in the water tower, to retaliate against the entire town people, so that they will always remember him!
And for that reason, Molly's story remains the town's No. 1 horror history.
Some even spread rumors and denigrate the deceased in an effort to add mystery; others say Molly died for another reason, and autopsy reports show that she is still a virgin.
Robert Gott, an Australian writer, was born in the town of Maryborough, and his father was involved in the salvage of Molly's body.
In an interview with reporters, he said: "Molly's story is a source of inspiration for writers, although that is not very good." War in Australia, the bodies in the water tower, feudal religious ideas, enough to make a novel wonderful. "
His novel, Good Murder, was the result of the reduction of Molly's event, and was also awarded the Best Crime Fiction Design Award.
Time can not help but recall the 2013 incident in the United States of America.
A single traveler was found in a water tank on the top floor of the hotel, and the body was in water for three weeks. The guest complained that the tap water pressure was too low and sent someone to repair the water tank until it was discovered.
CCTV recorded a series of strange behaviors before the death of the deceased. The distortion of his body is also unusual.
The incident also caused a worldwide sensation at that time! So far, there are still many doubts about the cause of death. It is unclear whether he committed suicide or killed him.
In fact, there are many events in the world behind the truth is still a mystery. After craving for truth without success, it is often the rise of gossip.
To this end, do not make unnecessary speculation, but also a rest of the dead.
