FUMIGATION

Many candles were burning at the funerals.

   An assassin was gunned down by police after a shocking murder. In an act of suicidal determination, he had pulled the trigger on a well loved respected man.
 Masses of tearful people were stunned. Five hundred people were gathered together, to express their sadness  at the death of a heroic saviour of the town.  A scientist who had perfected an antidote for poison in the water, that had been killing the children.

Many candles were burning at the funerals.

 For days the local population had been suffering from severe symptoms of poisoning, many children were affected first, and several died. It was thought to be a severe form of food poisoning, that affected the nervous system and had a fatal effect on the children.

Many candles were burning at the funerals.

 Dr Qwerty was a young scientific investigator, called in by the town council to investigate. After extensive tests he had pinned the problem down to the water supply and developed a revolutionary antidote that restored the water to its original pristine freshness.
When the final report came to light, it was revealed, Dr Qwerty had discovered high levels of lead in the drinking  water, and he came to the conclusion that the water had been deliberately contaminated. 


Many candles were burning at the funerals.

The unknown assassin was a member of a feared  team of mercenary killers hired to cast doubt on the deceased, in an amazing double bluff.  
Some pessimistic folk blamed the unstable political situation, and maintained that lead was deliberately introduced into the water supply by persons unknown, in a cold hearted attempt to create unrest and sow seeds of doubt.
