1.06 The Historians Clues
After reading the entire story of the missing gardening tool, determine if the crime was committed by Matthew Farmer or James Ansley. Go to page 2 of the lesson and click on the map to read what happened and gather clues. You may find it is easier to click on the option to read the text version (click below the map).

Once you have solved the mystery, write a two paragraph letter to the Sheriff in which you explain your conclusion by sharing your findings. Here’s an outline to follow:


Dear Sheriff,

Paragraph 1:

I believe that Matthew Farmer stole the tools. The most reliable piece of evidence I used to determine this is . . . .

In explaining your conclusion to the crime, be sure to include:
1. why you think this evidence is the most reliable
2. what you learned from the source that led you to the conclusion
3. the type of source (newspaper, diary, photograph)
4. the purpose of the source (hint: why was it created?)
5. whether this source is primary or secondary (hint: either created at the time of the event (primary) or after the event by someone who was not there (secondary))

Paragraph 2:

The least reliable piece of evidence presented in this case was . . . .

Include:
1. what the source (evidence) told you about the crime
2. why you think this evidence is the least reliable
3. the type of source (newspaper, diary, photograph)
4. the purpose of the source (why was it created?)
5. whether this source is primary or secondary (hint: either created at the time of the event (primary) or after the event by someone who was not there (secondary)

Paragraph 1. I believe that Mathew farmer stole the tools the most reliable peice of evidence that I used to determine the awnser is Anthony's diary.I think the evidence is the most reliable because diary I really arnt meant to be read by anyone but yourself so why would he lie in his own diary. I learned from the source that Mathews dad had gotten injured resentally and in that period in time there was a drought which caused people to fall on hard times. In that time farm tools had become expensive because people needed them to provide food for there families. The type of source that was used was a diary. The purpose of this source /or how it was created/ was for the use of a personal diary for will Anthony. This source is primary because it was made before the scene of the crime.

Paragraph 2.

The least reliable peice of evidence presented in the case was the photograph made in 2010. The photo showed and image of Mathew farmer outside the shop the night of the crime. The reason i think this evidence is lease reliable is that it was made in 2012 which makes it a secondary source made hundreds of years later so there could be no real evidence to that photograph. The purpose of the photo was to show what might of happend the night of the crime. The source is also a secondary source because it was made by a secondary source not an eye witness.

Answer:

Dear Judge -

I believe Matthew Farmer is guilty of stealing the gardening tools from the blacksmith shop.  The most reliable piece of evidence is the Court Transcript of the Interview with Matthew Farmer. This is a primary source and was written by the court reporter. It was meant to serve as documentation and evidence during the investigation. The Interview provides strong evidence that Matthew was involved in the crime. He seemed nervous and hesitant during the interview and made excuses for his actions and things he said.

    The photograph is a secondary source. It is the least reliable piece of evidence in the box. This piece was made 255 years after the crime took place. It was most likely made just to remember the cold case and was not based in facts.
