They Buried A Man

The fatal poisoning had happened more than twenty years before...

Now the best-loved man in Little Forks was dead, victim of a cruel and senseless automobile accident.

"Could it be a case of belated justice?" the doctor wondered to his wife. And the town's new young newspaper editor began to do some wondering of his own. What had the dead man, Selwyn Buoman, really been like? Was this upright man guilty of an old murder nobody wanted to talk about?

Being a good newspaperman, Gunnard Kerr went deeper and deeper into the life of Selwyn Buoman, and at last he found the extraordinary solution to a murder -- and to the character of an unusual man.
