Reel 233, Item 3
BC: . . . Years ago before you could remember, an old Dutchman
killed his wife in Chicago— you remember that, don't
you?
MCP: I don't know.
BC: And he put her into sausage— he was a sausage manufacturer,
and the only way they convicted him: she was highly
jewelled, and he put the bones and scraps in the acid vats
and the jewelry didn't go.
MCP: Wasn't there a song about that?
BC: I don't remember.
