Henry Edey, a wealthy New York broker, and his wife, Katherine, were found dead in their Bellport home on Jan. 2, 1913, with gunshot wounds. Police eventually learned their deaths were the result of a botched plot by a local liveryman, Gardner Murdock, and his wife Nellie to get rich by getting romantically entangled with the couple. Henry Edey had decided to end their lives rather than suffer ignominy in the press.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
