Who Shot the Judge?

Out of the annals of the author's own family history comes this story of the strange death of a popular circuit judge in a mysterieous shooting that remained unsolved for many years. "Who shot the Judge?" remained an unsettled question, despite all efforts to find the answer. This is the account of a hunting accident in the north woods of Michigan and the effects of such unsolved mystery on members of the family and others. The story concludes with a surprise ending and alludes to the question of the degree to which such unhealed grief might affect even succeeding generations.
The prompting to write the story was born for the author in an experience of personal healing in a prayer group, from which the author emerged with a compelling sense that this story had to be written. He could never seem to let it go.
The judge was the author's own grandfather, whom he, of course, never knew.
