Speaker 1: Hello, there's Richard McLain smith here to let you know
Speaker 1: that I now have a substack page if you enjoy
Speaker 1: Unexplained and want to go deeper into the world of
Speaker 1: the show. I've created a new space for all the
Speaker 1: bits that don't quite fit into the podcast, including the
Speaker 1: Unexplained Dedendum, a weekly companion piece to each new episode.
Speaker 1: Expect essays that lean more academic and analytical explorations of folklore, psychology,
Speaker 1: and the shadowy corners of history that have shaped the
Speaker 1: stories you hear on the show. But it's also a
Speaker 1: home for something more personal, my fiction, my strange amusings,
Speaker 1: and the odd fragments that don't belong anywhere else. Search
Speaker 1: for Richard McClain smith on substack, or go to Richard

Speaker 1: If you'd like a little bit more of me and
Speaker 1: Unexplained in your week, join me on substack and let's
Speaker 1: keep exploring the unknown together. New writing most Tuesdays. It
Speaker 1: was a glorious autumn day in Sydney, Australia, as Nazis
Speaker 1: Young lent on the rail overlooking the indoor saltwater swimming
Speaker 1: pool near Coudji Beach. Young worked at the Sydney Morning Herald,
Speaker 1: but on Anzac Day, April twenty fifth, nineteen thirty five,
Speaker 1: he was taking some time out to enjoy the busy
Speaker 1: public holiday. Earlier, the pool had been bustling with visitors,
Speaker 1: although no one was there to swim themselves. Now, as
Speaker 1: late afternoon sunshines slanted across the water, Young was one
Speaker 1: of only a few visitors left staring at the reason
Speaker 1: why of fourteen and a half foot long tiger shark.
Speaker 1: That had been eight shark attacks around Sydney in the
Speaker 1: past twelve months, six of them fatal. In one case,
Speaker 1: seventeen year old Frank Riley had his leg torn off
Speaker 1: at the hip by a shark that, as onlookers described,
Speaker 1: had shaken him back and forth like a dog shaking
Speaker 1: a rabbit. A beach inspector eventually managed to pull the
Speaker 1: horrifically injured Riley to shore, while fellow bathers beat the
Speaker 1: water to keep the shark at bay, but it was
Speaker 1: too late. The young man bled to death at the
Speaker 1: Surf clubhouse while a horrified public watched the shark cruising
Speaker 1: up and down the shallows in the bloodied water. Sydney's
Speaker 1: slaughter houses and sewage system had been dumping their waist
Speaker 1: directly into the ocean, which seemed to be attracting tiger
Speaker 1: sharks as well as bull sharks and great whites. Close
Speaker 1: to the city's most popular swimming beaches of Manly, Bondai
Speaker 1: and Cudjie, the public were equally terrified and fascinated, with
Speaker 1: many becoming increasingly eager to catch a glimpse of the
Speaker 1: so called man eating monsters. And so, with business being
Speaker 1: slow at Cudgee's indoor swimming pool, its owner, Charlie Hobson,
Speaker 1: atched a cunning plan to try to catch one, and
Speaker 1: did his brother Bert, an expert angler, to help. A
Speaker 1: week before Anzac Day, Bert and his son Ron put
Speaker 1: out baiting lines at Maroubra Point, a well known shark
Speaker 1: hotspot just south of Kujie. The following morning they found
Speaker 1: the head of a six foot shark clenched onto one
Speaker 1: of the hooks. Tangled up alongside it was a much
Speaker 1: bigger tiger shark, which had evidently eaten most of the
Speaker 1: smaller shark, but had itself been caught in the process.
Speaker 1: It was exactly what they were looking for. With the
Speaker 1: help of Ropes and several other men. The shark offered
Speaker 1: no resistance as the Hobsons hauled it out of the
Speaker 1: water along the beach and finally lifted it into the
Speaker 1: swimming pool. After its forty five minute ordeal, the shark
Speaker 1: was barely alive. It remained that way for most of
Speaker 1: the day until a pump was brought in to aerate
Speaker 1: the water, at which point it seemed to perk up
Speaker 1: a little. On top of the shark of being pulled
Speaker 1: out at the sea and placed in the swimming pool,
Speaker 1: something clearly wasn't right with it. You're listening to Unexplained,
Speaker 1: and I'm Richard McLain Smith. A week after its capture,
Speaker 1: there'd been little improvement in the tiger shark's health. It
Speaker 1: was still despondent and barely eating, but it had certainly
Speaker 1: brought in the tourists. For Herald journalist Narsis Young, however,
Speaker 1: there was little to enjoy watching the thing edge listlessly
Speaker 1: from one side of the pool to the other. After
Speaker 1: watching it for fifteen minutes, it was just about to
Speaker 1: leave when the shark suddenly began to swim, frantically, bumping
Speaker 1: into the sides and flashing its tail after beating the
Speaker 1: water into a foam. The shark then suddenly swam around
Speaker 1: in a tight circle before sinking to the bottom of
Speaker 1: the pool. Young stared on and wrapped as a cloudy
Speaker 1: plume of brown sludge rose up from the depths. Then
Speaker 1: a terrible stench hit its nostrils. Emerging from out of
Speaker 1: the sludge, Young could see all manner of strange, putrid things,
Speaker 1: half a rat, chunks of fish, feathers even, But the
Speaker 1: strangest thing of all was the long, pale piece of
Speaker 1: meat that rose up in the center of it all,
Speaker 1: a human arm. Sometimes called the trash cans of the sea.
Speaker 1: Tiger sharks have one of the most vary diets of
Speaker 1: all shark species, as well as eating a wide variety
Speaker 1: of marine creatures thanks to the endless waste we produce,
Speaker 1: they've even been known to consume our rubbish. Thankfully, Tiger
Speaker 1: sharks have a nifty way of dealing with anything their
Speaker 1: stomach doesn't quite agree with, by pushing it out of
Speaker 1: its mouth to eject its contents in a feet known
Speaker 1: as gastric aversion. The stomachs of tiger sharks have on
Speaker 1: occasion been found to contain some very strange items. You
Speaker 1: might remember the scene in Jaws where a tiger shark
Speaker 1: is all top seed by a marine biologist played by
Speaker 1: Richard Dreyfuss. He finds a Louisiana state vehicle license plate
Speaker 1: in its stomach. The scene is much closer to fact
Speaker 1: than fiction. Along with license plates, objects found in the
Speaker 1: stomach of tiger sharks have also included entire dogs with
Speaker 1: collars and leads still attached, fur coats, and even an
Speaker 1: entire suit of armour, including the helmet, according to one
Speaker 1: sixteenth century report. And of course, human body parts too
Speaker 1: have been found, much like the arm that appeared at
Speaker 1: the Cujee swimming pool on that strange day in April
Speaker 1: nineteen thirty five. It had been a quiet Anzac day
Speaker 1: for detectives at the police station on the hill above
Speaker 1: Coojie Beach when the phone rang late in the afternoon.
Speaker 1: On being told what had just happened at the swimming pool,
Speaker 1: two officers were promptly dispatched to investigate. Arriving at the pool,
Speaker 1: they found Bert and Charlie Hobson attempting to clean up
Speaker 1: some of the stinking debris. With their help, the officers
Speaker 1: fished the arm out of the water. There were several
Speaker 1: striking things about it. It was deemed to have belonged
Speaker 1: to a male and was in a remarkably good state
Speaker 1: of preservation considering where it had come from, so good
Speaker 1: that the fingerprints were still clearly visible. It also bore
Speaker 1: a striking tattoo just below the forearm, two boxers facing
Speaker 1: each other, outlined in blue and wearing red boxing shorts.
Speaker 1: There was one other curious feature. A length of rope
Speaker 1: had been tied around the wrist. Once the detectives established
Speaker 1: unequivocally that the arm had come out at the shark
Speaker 1: and hadn't just been thrown into the tank at some
Speaker 1: other time, an officer was sent for from the fingerprint branch.
Speaker 1: He delicately cut the skin from the fingertips and took
Speaker 1: it away for identification. The following day at the Margue
Speaker 1: down at Sydney's Circular Key, the arm was examined in
Speaker 1: greater detail. A pungent blend of maldehyde fumes and brotting
Speaker 1: flesh hung heavily in the air. Oblivious or perhaps accustomed
Speaker 1: to the unpleasant odors. Doctor Arthur Palmer, an experienced government
Speaker 1: medical officer, along with the shark White specialist bent over
Speaker 1: the severed arm and peered closely at its broken and
Speaker 1: mangled skin. It had been assumed that the unfortunate owner
Speaker 1: of the arm had fallen victim to yet another shark attack.
Speaker 1: There were numerous puncture wounds which had likely been made
Speaker 1: by the tiger shark when it ate the arm, But
Speaker 1: as Palmer and the bite expert pored over the wound
Speaker 1: where the arm had been torn from the body, both
Speaker 1: agreed that were none of the ragged tears or bite
Speaker 1: marks you'd expect to find from a shark attack. What
Speaker 1: they found instead was the arm had been sliced off
Speaker 1: cleanly with a single bladed implement, meaning it had been
Speaker 1: removed before it ended up as chum. It was later
Speaker 1: speculated that the arm had likely been eaten first by
Speaker 1: the smaller shark that the Hobson brothers caught before that,
Speaker 1: and its stomach contents were in turn eaten by the
Speaker 1: larger tiger shark. To help identify the man to whom
Speaker 1: the arm had once belonged, police put out a description
Speaker 1: of the distinctive tattoo in the press and ran the
Speaker 1: prints through their database. It didn't take long to get
Speaker 1: a result in a modest cottage in a suburb in
Speaker 1: northern Sydney, and missus Molloy recognized the description of the
Speaker 1: tattoo as one that her son in law also had.
Speaker 1: She rushed to tell her daughter Gladys, whose husband had
Speaker 1: been missing for three weeks. He'd supposedly gone to Cronulla,
Speaker 1: fifteen miles south of Sydney on a fishing trip with
Speaker 1: a friend, but had so far failed to return. At first,
Speaker 1: Gladys was in denial. Then her brother in law came
Speaker 1: to call. He'd already spoken to the investigators who'd shown
Speaker 1: him a photograph of the tattoo. He was adamant it
Speaker 1: was his brother. His and Gladys's worst fears were confirmed
Speaker 1: when the fingerprint check came back with a positive match too,
Speaker 1: because the arm's owner had a police record. His name
Speaker 1: was Jane Smith, a forty five year old from the
Speaker 1: suburb of Gladesville, known to his family and acquaintances as
Speaker 1: Jim or Jimmy. The man had been a builder and
Speaker 1: a keen amateur boxer. More recently, he tried to invest
Speaker 1: in property but had fallen on hard times. He'd been
Speaker 1: fingerprinted three years earlier after being charged with a minor offence.
Speaker 1: Those records also contained a description of the tattoo on
Speaker 1: his left arm two boxers outlined in blue wearing red
Speaker 1: boxing shorts. But this was no simple case of a
Speaker 1: man falling overboard while fishing, then being attacked and partly
Speaker 1: eaten by a shark. The events that had led to
Speaker 1: the arm being in the shark's stomach had begun many
Speaker 1: months earlier. In the early pre dawn light one April
Speaker 1: morning the previous year, a mile offshore from Terragle, a
Speaker 1: small fishing town on the central coast of New South Wales,
Speaker 1: glanced around the beautiful yacht he was aboard. He took
Speaker 1: in the Pathfinder's fine lines, polished walnut interiors and bespoke
Speaker 1: furniture for one last time. Then, as the yacht bobbed
Speaker 1: gently in the water, he went below decks with a
Speaker 1: hammer and smashed the toilet's water pipes. A little while later,
Speaker 1: the Pathfinder was low in the water and listing heavily
Speaker 1: to one side. Wishing that the yacht would sink a
Speaker 1: little faster, the man climbed into the dinghy he'd prepared,
Speaker 1: when out of the dawn gloom a ship loomed. It
Speaker 1: was a coal transporter bound for Sydney when its skipper
Speaker 1: spotted the stricken yacht. He drew his ship closer and
Speaker 1: called out to the man in the small dinghy, who
Speaker 1: seemed to be rowing away from it towards shore. He
Speaker 1: asked if he needed any help, but the man just
Speaker 1: kept rowing and didn't reply. Perplexed, the coal ship's captain
Speaker 1: could continued on to Sydney well Later that day, he
Speaker 1: reported the incident to the police. As he tried to
Speaker 1: get away, the man in the dinghy cursed his bad luck.
Speaker 1: Being seen leaving the yacht was not part of his plan,
Speaker 1: as he rowed. His muscles flexed, rippling the skin which
Speaker 1: on his left arm bore a singular tattoo, two boxes
Speaker 1: facing each other, outlined in blue and wearing red boxing shorts.
Speaker 1: The man was, of course, James Smith. Jim had fallen
Speaker 1: in with a shady Sydney based boat builder and speedboat
Speaker 1: racer called Reginald Holmes. He'd become involved in criminal activities,
Speaker 1: including using boats to coordinate drug drops off the coast
Speaker 1: of Sydney. The plan for this latest venture that he'd
Speaker 1: undertaken for homes was to sink the path Finder and
Speaker 1: claim it was an accident in order to collect the
Speaker 1: insurance money for it. But things were not going to plan.
Speaker 1: As Smith continued to row, a strong wind from the
Speaker 1: southeast picked up and with it came a heavy swell.
Speaker 1: It took all of Jim's strength and four exhausting hours
Speaker 1: to make it to shore, staggering into Terrible police station
Speaker 1: to report his concocted story of how the Pathfinder had sunk.
Speaker 1: Smith made a serious error, perhaps because he was so tired.
Speaker 1: Instead of concealing the name of the yacht's owner, he
Speaker 1: asked a policeman to dial the owner's number for him,
Speaker 1: then immediately called him mister Holmes when he picked up.
Speaker 1: A short time later, the police were alerted to the
Speaker 1: report made by the coal ship captain, along with an
Speaker 1: inquiry from a shipping insurance company about the suspicious sinking
Speaker 1: of a yacht they just received a claim. On joining
Speaker 1: the Dots, the police called Reginald Holmes and his his
Speaker 1: business partner, Albert Stanart, who also had a boat building
Speaker 1: business on Sydney Harbor, in for questioning. Jim Smith was
Speaker 1: questioned too. Charges of attempting to defraud the insurance company
Speaker 1: were eventually dropped, but Smith's relationship with Holmes at Sowart.
Speaker 1: Determined to push on with his criminal activities, Smith turned
Speaker 1: to the man who seemed to be his one remaining friend,
Speaker 1: Patrick Paddy Brady, who he described to his wife as
Speaker 1: Australia's cleverest forger. Brady invited Smith to join him on
Speaker 1: his next criminal venture, a convoluted scheme that involved using
Speaker 1: the Pathfinder sinking scam to blackmail money from Reginald Holmes.
Speaker 1: Brady would forge checks that appeared to have been issued
Speaker 1: by Holmes, and Holmes felt that he had no choice
Speaker 1: but allow them to be cashed. Terrified that the investigation
Speaker 1: into his insurance scam would be reopened if he didn't comply,
Speaker 1: but Brady got greedy, as well as confronting Homes directly
Speaker 1: to extort more money from him. Paddy Brady brought a
Speaker 1: third small time crook into the mix, a man named
Speaker 1: Stanley Watson. Watson was soon caught and identified in a
Speaker 1: police lineup as the person cashing the forged checks. Watson
Speaker 1: soon came to suspect with good reason that he'd been shopped,
Speaker 1: as it turned out, in exchange for immunity from prosecution.
Speaker 1: In the scuttling of the Pathfinder, James Smith had become
Speaker 1: a police informant. The next few months were a dangerous
Speaker 1: time for Smith, when Watson was convicted of forgery and
Speaker 1: sentenced to three years hard labor. News of the botched
Speaker 1: Pathfinder job, along with rumors that Smith might now be
Speaker 1: a police informant, spread through Sydney's criminal underworld. One night,
Speaker 1: Smith came home drunk, bleeding from a head wound that
Speaker 1: was bad enough to need stitches. His wife, Gladys, asked
Speaker 1: what had happened, only for Smith to claim that he'd
Speaker 1: fallen and cut himself on a broken bottle, but Gladys
Speaker 1: wasn't convinced. A few days later, on April seventh, nineteen
Speaker 1: thirty five, James Smith walked his wife down the street
Speaker 1: to where she caught the tram to work. He told
Speaker 1: her he was going to Crunneller in South Sydney for
Speaker 1: a week to stay at a cottage that Paddy Brady
Speaker 1: had rented for them both. They planned to go fishing,
Speaker 1: he said. Then he and Gladys said their goodbyes and
Speaker 1: waved to each other as Gladys's tram trundled away. It
Speaker 1: was the last time that Gladys would ever see her husband.
Speaker 1: Later that afternoon, Paddy and Jim were seen drinking in
Speaker 1: the bar at Cronneller's Cecil Hotel. The next day, a
Speaker 1: taxi driver was hailed by a disheveled looking man who
Speaker 1: seemed to be strangely on edge. The man asked the
Speaker 1: driver to wait for him outside a second hand furniture store,
Speaker 1: before emerging a few minutes later with a large metal
Speaker 1: trunk and a mattress. The driver was then instructed to
Speaker 1: deliver the man to the cottage where he was staying.
Speaker 1: A day or so later, the landlord of the cottage
Speaker 1: that Paddy Brady had rented for himself and James came
Speaker 1: to inspect the property and get it ready for his
Speaker 1: next set of guests. Weirdly, he found that the mattress
Speaker 1: had been replaced and the walls scrubbed scrupulously clean. When
Speaker 1: James Smith's arm was found, Paddy Brady was immediately brought
Speaker 1: in for questioning. Under police interrogation, Paddy Brady wove in
Speaker 1: a labor story which implicated Reginald Holmes in Smith's disappearance.
Speaker 1: Brady claimed that after dealings between the two men had
Speaker 1: turned sour, Holmes decided to do away with Smith, but
Speaker 1: having by then identified Brady as the man whom Smith
Speaker 1: had stayed with in Cronulla and who had also taken
Speaker 1: a taxi to buy the replacement mattress, the police surmised
Speaker 1: that he had murdered Smith in the rental property and
Speaker 1: had been forced to replace the bed to cover his tracks.
Speaker 1: On May nineteenth, despite no sign of Smith's body save
Speaker 1: for his arm, Paddy Brady was charged with his murder,
Speaker 1: but the police still wanted to speak to Reginald Holmes.
Speaker 1: Early the following day, a dense fog hung over Sydney Harbor.
Speaker 1: Around seven a m Reginald Holmes, dressed in an overcoat,
Speaker 1: went down to Stannard's Wharf and borrowed a small speedboat
Speaker 1: from a man named Harz. Hars could tell that Holmes
Speaker 1: was drunk, but was happy to let him take the boat.
Speaker 1: With that, Holmes gunned the engines and sped off into
Speaker 1: the harbor, before coming to a standstill just offshore from
Speaker 1: a place called Piper Point. As the fog slowly lifted,
Speaker 1: with curls of it drifting across the water, Homes cut
Speaker 1: the engine then pulled a half empty bottle of brandy
Speaker 1: from his overcoat pocket and gulped down its remaining contents.
Speaker 1: Then he took a revolver out of another pocket, pointed
Speaker 1: it at his forehead, and pulled the trigger. The sharp
Speaker 1: crack of the gun shot resounded through the mist, followed
Speaker 1: by a loud splash as Homes tumbled over the side.
Speaker 1: For a moment, there was nothing but an eerie silence.
Speaker 1: Then frantic splashing sounds came from beside the speedboat as
Speaker 1: Holmes is thrashing arms. Then his head breached the water's surface.
Speaker 1: He had survived his suicide attempt. The gun had been
Speaker 1: loaded with cheap nickel based bullets, and the shot hadn't
Speaker 1: been strong enough to penetrate bone. Instead, the bullet had
Speaker 1: become embedded in Holmes's forehead. Immersion in the freezing water
Speaker 1: had brought the stunned man back to consciousness. After hauling
Speaker 1: himself back into the boat, Reginald Holmes sat dazed, sopping
Speaker 1: wet and cold, with a terrible headache. Its acquaintance, Hearts,
Speaker 1: who happened to be out in one of his workboats,
Speaker 1: noticed the speedboat bobbing on the water in the distance,
Speaker 1: Drawing closer It was shocked to see Holmes hunched over
Speaker 1: the wheel, bleeding profusely from a head wound and only
Speaker 1: semi conscious. Taking the speedboat in tow, Hars returned to
Speaker 1: the wharf, where he jumped out and hurried to the
Speaker 1: local water police to get help. Holmes had remained throughout
Speaker 1: slumped at the wheel of the speedboat, but when he
Speaker 1: saw the police approaching, he sprung into action and took
Speaker 1: off across the harbor at speed. The water police followed
Speaker 1: in hot pursuit. For four hours, the police chased homes
Speaker 1: around Sydney Harbor. Onlookers watched amazed as the fugitive, crouched
Speaker 1: over the wheel with blood streaming from his head, twisted
Speaker 1: and turned his speedboat in and out of bays and coves,
Speaker 1: dodging boys and jetties. Several times. He made sharp u
Speaker 1: turns and sped toward the police at full throttle as
Speaker 1: if about to ram them, seemingly convinced that he could
Speaker 1: evade them with his superior skills, and perhaps he might
Speaker 1: have had he not run out of fuel. When he
Speaker 1: was finally apprehended, Holmes was interrogated for three hours, with
Speaker 1: the bullet still lodged in his head. His account of
Speaker 1: events over the previous weeks were very different to Paddy Brady's.
Speaker 1: According to Holmes, during that time that Brady had relentlessly
Speaker 1: blackmailed and threatened him. On the morning of April ninth,
Speaker 1: Holmes alleged that Brady turned up at his office with
Speaker 1: a canvas back and told him to look inside it.
Speaker 1: When he did, he saw that it contained James Smith's
Speaker 1: severed arm, Claiming that he'd killed Smith, Brady made it
Speaker 1: fairly obvious that if Holmes was not careful, he might
Speaker 1: end up the same way. This seemed to explain to
Speaker 1: the police why Holmes had tried to kill himself to
Speaker 1: avoid the misery of being tortured to death by Brady.
Speaker 1: Weighing the evidence, the police decided that Brady was the murderer,
Speaker 1: and Holmes was released on the condition that he would
Speaker 1: testify at the inquest into Smith's death and Brady's subsequent
Speaker 1: murder trial, but Reginald Holmes would never see the inside
Speaker 1: of the court room. On the afternoon of June eleventh,
Speaker 1: Reginald Holmes visited his bank, where he withdrew five hundred
Speaker 1: pounds in cash roughly fifty thousand Australian dollars in today's
Speaker 1: money that evening. He went out in his car the
Speaker 1: next morning, the same day he was due to testify
Speaker 1: at the inquest, he was found dead in his car
Speaker 1: from a gunshot to the head fired at close range.
Speaker 1: Was it suicide or had someone done the job for him?
Speaker 1: His withdrawal of the cash, along with forensic evidence, led
Speaker 1: the police to conclude that it was murder. But with
Speaker 1: Paddy Brady in custody, who else had wanted Holmes dead?
Speaker 1: Brady was now firmly in the frame for murder. But
Speaker 1: before he could go to trial, there was the inquest
Speaker 1: on the Cause of James Smith's death. It was over
Speaker 1: in less than two days. The evidence against Brady was
Speaker 1: all circumstantial, and his defense lawyer, quoting historical precedents, successfully
Speaker 1: made the case that for someone to be charged with
Speaker 1: murder there had to be a body, not just an arm,
Speaker 1: and so the inquest was quashed. Brady was tried for
Speaker 1: the murder in September that year, but with no body
Speaker 1: and only circumstantial evidence to go on, he was acquitted.
Speaker 1: Then in November, based on fresh evidence, two new suspects
Speaker 1: were put on trial for Smith's murder. One of them
Speaker 1: was Albert Stanart, the long time business associate of Reginald Holmes.
Speaker 1: Like Holmes, he too was a wealthy boat builder rumored
Speaker 1: to be involved in insurance fraud and drug smuggling. He
Speaker 1: was charged with the murder alongside John Patrick Strong, a
Speaker 1: docker who worked for him, but again with little but
Speaker 1: circumstantial evidence and still no body, they were also acquitted.
Speaker 1: To this day, no conclusive evidence about who killed James
Speaker 1: Smith or Reginald Holmes has ever been found. They remain
Speaker 1: two of Australia's most intriguing and longest unsold cases, and
Speaker 1: both they and exactly how James Smith's tattooed severed arm
Speaker 1: ended up in the stomach of a shark seem destined
Speaker 1: to remain forever unexplained. This episode was written by Diane
