Detective Stories by Cotton Mather Winston
Murder in Albemarle Street
[This is a memoir by Wildman's friend Inspector Aphid]
Cotton Mather Winston was a Bostonian who worked in a Lunatic
Asylum in Crickleswade, England, in the 1960s. He either knew the great
turn-of-the-century detective William Blackstone Wildman and transcribed
the old man's reminiscences, or was actually a mental patient himself and
invented them. (Another alternative is that Wildman himself was a patient
and just imagined he had solved the crimes described in these stories.) We
will never know, since the Asylum burnt down and everyone there was
killed in 1972 when a Hawker Harrier on training maneuvers crashed into
it and exploded. --Grobius Shortling
