He should be taken on a Chester Gillette canoe tour of Big Moose Lake in the Adirondacks.
Gillette murdered his pregnant girlfriend Grace Brown in 1906, taking her out on a canoe ride on Big Moose Lake, and disposing of her body. Her body washed up, he was caught, convicted, condemned to death in the electric chair, and sent to Auburn Prison, Auburn, NY. Theodore Dreiser's 1925 novel, "An American Tragedy", was the basis for the 1931 movie of the same name, as well as the 1951 film "A Place in the Sun."
I worked as an officer at Auburn Prison from September 1980 to December 1983, before transferring to a facility closer to my home. Auburn was the site of the first execution by electric chair in the United States. There's a State historical plaque outside the prison reporting this. Convicted murderer William Kemmler was executed at New York State’s Auburn Prison on August 6, 1890.
Very interesting history there. Thanks!
