This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many towns hold dark secrets in its past, but none quiet like the town of Findlay, Hancock County, Ohio, when almost the whole town joined together to perform a horrific deed. Their act of vigilantisms took place back in 1892, when the town was just starting to recover from near extinction. Discovery of The Great Karg well brought oil to Findlay and made a lot of men rich: so rich they believed they were above societies rule. These men led the town to take the law in to its own hands and commit a brutal, blood wrenching act however justified it may have seemed. The men, sworn to up hold the law, made a feeble attempt to stop the attack. And once the gruesome task had been complete, did nothing to punish the ringleaders. Maybe this was due to the fact that the suspected leaders were very prominent men about town. The people went on with their lives with no more regard to Joseph Lytle. Findlay and its people flourished. The world renowned, Marathon Oil Company, originated there as The Ohio Oil Company. The town has been listed in Fortune 500 as a top industrial city: So much accomplishment for a place with such a dark past. For the man who is the victim of this gruesome deed was but a poor man married to a rich man's daughter. His reputation tarnished and destroyed, drove to the point of madness in the end, he was put in the ground with no marker to show the world he had been here: buried deep to be forgotten in hopes that the dirty little secret would be forgotten as well. This secret from the past holds more then dirty laundry for a whole town, it also holds historical value. It was the only act of its kind ever to have taken place in Hancock County, as well as being the first court case for the newly formed judicial system. If not for one man today, it probably would remain forgotten: a man who lives in the shadows of Joseph Lytle, a man whose life seems to mimic that of his ancestor, a man who contemplates will I end the same way. That man is Ricky"Rick" Lytle. He has lived under and endured the dark cloud of the Lytle name. Now for the first time ever hear the story from the forbidden side: from the Lytle side. Hear of Joseph Lytle's demise and what brought it about and how the rich prominent Heck family was able to lead a town to go against its very morals to partake in the violent deed. Listen to Rick tell of how this all seems to play a role in his life and how he feels driven to tell this story. Driven to bring closure and give peace to a restless spirit that haun
