Ramsay began his investigation by interviewing the household staff. The butler, Jenkins, said that he had heard a scream from Cassidy's bedroom late the previous night. He had rushed to the room, but by the time he arrived, Cassidy was already dead.
The maid, Sarah, said that she had seen a strange man leaving the house shortly after the scream. She could not provide a detailed description of the man, but she said that he was tall and had dark hair.
Ramsay also interviewed Cassidy's family. Her son, Edward, said that he had been out of town on business at the time of the murder. He had no idea who would want to harm his mother.
Cassidy's daughter, Mary, said that she had been at home with her mother on the night of the murder. She had heard the scream, but by the time she arrived in her mother's bedroom, Ramsay was already there.
Ramsay's investigation led him to a number of suspects. One was a young man named John Smith, who had been seen arguing with Cassidy a few days before the murder. Smith had a criminal record, and Ramsay suspected that he may have been involved in the murder.
Another suspect was a man named Charles Jones, who had been Cassidy's lover. Jones had been seen leaving Cassidy's house on the night of the murder. He had a motive to kill Cassidy, as she had recently ended their relationship.
Ramsay also investigated Cassidy's financial affairs. He discovered that she had been in debt, and that she had recently taken out a large insurance policy on her life. Ramsay suspected that Cassidy may have been murdered by someone who was after her money.
After weeks of investigation, Ramsay finally had enough evidence to arrest a suspect. He charged John Smith with the murder of Dorothea Cassidy. Smith was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
Ramsay's investigation had revealed a web of secrets and lies. He had uncovered the truth about Cassidy's death, and he had brought her killer to justice.
