In 1905, McConnelsville town constable Horace Porter was shot to death by a local man with no history of violence. Four years later, the same gun found its way into the hands of Morgan County prosecutor Frank Parsons, who used it to kill himself. Investigators found Parsons had been drawing the revolver on paper while working up the nerve to act. Bonus: A look at the ghosts of the Twin City Opera House, where the spirit of Horace Porter may still be in residence.
