"The Green Trunk Mystery"

This is a story that appeared in the November 1948 issue of "True Detective" magazine. Fred Mallett, in his capacity as a Portland Police Detective, is mentioned several times. Fred was dead by the time this was published, and the precise date that the murder occurred is not stated, but the story begins with "On the night of Monday, June 20th", and ends with references to Governor Oswald West of Oregon, two pieces of information that allow us to pinpoint the year in which the murder must have occurred. Governor West served a single term, from January 1911 to January 1915, so his role obviously fits within that time frame. June 20th fell on a Monday in 1910, so that must be when the crime was committed.
