🟡 The article referenced where the REPORTER IS GRILLING the doctor's wife:
CHICAGO TRIBUNE - Saturday, December 4, 1875
_________ * _________
A Tribune reporter yesterday again visited the offices of Dr. E. P. B. Wilder, corner of Twenty-second street and Indiana avenue, but was not able to find any new clew as to the absent physician's where-abouts, and it is not at all likely that, under existing circumstances, he will be apt to turn up in this vicinity and bear identification with any great degree of pride.
Dr. E. P. B. Wilder was want to take his meals at the residence of his mother, No. 110 Lake avenue, where be also slept a portion of the time. He was married in June last, and, like many other young men, has been rather unfortunate since putting on the matrimonial harness.
About two years ago he had quite a successful practice in the neighborhood in which he resided, and where he had his office at the time he so suddenly left.
He moved to South Chicago, where he managed to pick up a living, but, his wife becoming dissatisfied with the locality, the Doctor returned to his old field, but found not the patronage he so stridently desired.
His wife and brother Dr. F. M. Wilder we’re found in the deserted office yesterday. It is hardly necessary to say that Dr. F. M. Wilder feels the disgrace fallen upon his brother keenly. This gentleman is beyond reproach, and his professional reputation stands high in the neighborhood, where he has resided many years.
In conversation with Dr. F. M. Wilder yesterday, he stated that he could hardly believe that his brother was engaged in such a business as raising bodies. Those who have known Dr. F. M. Wilder for ten years say that he has always won the respect and confidence of the community, and was generally well liked, and his professional brethren with whom he has been called into consultation state that he is a well-educated physician, and of good sound, and practical judgment.
The accusation of his brother has FALLEN HEAVILY upon him, but the public will not hold him responsible for so serious a crime, with which he had not the remotest connection whatever.
_________ * _________
Mrs. E. P. B. Wilder, who was at the office, is a woman of more than average intelligence, and a good conversationalist, with rather pleasing but sharply-out features, and a prominent nose. She stated to Tribune Reporter that SHE BELIEVED HER HUSBAND INNOCENT, and that she was surprised that the four men now under arrest should have made such remarkable statements as had been published in the Tribune.
“But”, interrogated the Reporter: “How do you account for your husband leaving so suddenly?”
Mrs. W.: “Oh, well, he was not so big a rogue as others, perhaps. He did not care to face public opinion.
Rep.: “And perhaps if he was innocent the public might judge it queer that he ran away. Don’t you think so?”
Mrs. W.: “I don’t know. You may be a bigger rogue than he is”.
Rep.: “I presume I am. Reporters generally are. At least some people would like to think so.”
Mrs. W.: “Oh no! I believe you’re a straightforward young man.”
The reporter modestly pocketed this complement, as became him.
Mrs. Wilder stated that her husband could not possibly have been out on Tuesday night, that he was not at Graceland at all, and didn’t believe that he had anything to do with the raising of the corpses.
He came home Tuesday evening shortly after 7 o’clock and stayed there all night, sleeping with her, and leaving Wednesday morning.
Rep.: “I presume he is safe?”
Mrs. W.: “Yes, I think so, and I think my husband has brains enough to take care of himself.”
Rep.: “You’ll probably hear from him in a week?”
Mrs. W.: “I think it is more than likely. I presume he is safe, but I know he is innocent of any crime.”

A tragic story, in two parts: Emma and her baby die. Then, disturbed in their fresh grave and desecrated! Hard to fathom. Medical research is one thing, but that grave robbing, i cant even imagine. And where are poor Emma and her baby buried. Wherever they are, i pray they are resting in peace. Thank you Ron, the history you share with us is so fascinating!!💜
Ron thank you so much for the research you’re doing on these horrific historical stories of Grave Robbing! Poor Emma and her Dear Baby may they Rest in Peace!
That poor woman. Sounds like she had placenta previa and then to have her body along with her child's body desecrated. Rest in peace, dear Emma. Thanks again Ron. I always look forward to your videos.
Thank You Ron for sharing the story, goodness I know the placenta covering the birth canal is very dangerous, I had that with my 3rd child, luckily we have ultrasounds now, I was lucky & mine moved enough that I could deliver her normally. It was so scary tho. Stay Blessed. And my prayers for this poor young lady & baby 🙏🏻.
I had placenta previa, a C-section saved my life!
and my baby lived, I had her in my 8th month, tiny 5lb. She is grown now with 3 children of her own.
My mother and I almost died because of placenta previa. We both survived thanks to an emergency C-section. She had this horrible scar across her abdomen, so they must have been really quick about it. I was born at 8 months.
@@taylortwinshootenannyfarm4187 same here. My baby was born dying but was resuscitated though he had wet lung. Placenta Previa is awful. My placenta tore (placental abrupto) so there was enormous bleeding and a threat to my unborn baby.
It would be interesting if you could take ground penetrating radar and see if you could tell if there's anybody in their coffins or if They're not In there
Oh! Boy! The dissection classes / rooms must have smelled REALLY bad!
When I look at these huge cemeteries with the old graves, I don't even want to imagine how many relatives came to graves, thinking of their loved ones and not knowing that the coffin is actually empty. I think that is very sad.
Funerals and graves are for the living not the dead.
I think Resurrection is not the correct word you are using. Grave robbers would be more correct. I don't think these people have met there Savior yet.
Sorry should be their.
Or even worse...buried alive.
@@judyeldridge5786 you're commenting to Nicola who said nothing about resurrection.... Those were the words the reporters used in the 1800s. He was reciting words from the newspaper.
May Emma and her baby rest in peace
I can't even imagine being able to do that kind of thing . How heinous! R.I.P. Emma. Thank you, Ron, for another informative story.
I absolutely love the way you apologise for and prepare people for the racist language in old scripts or texts you will read. Even as a white person I appreciate you for this sentiment and the respect you show people.
Since so many bodies were stolen, what happened to the bodies after the medical doctors and students were done with them?
Dogs, pigs, incinerated, dumped in water etc
Cremate, dumped in water, or fed to pigs
Hospitals have incinerators, l should imagine a lot went into them .
Ethics in medical schools unfortunately didn't improve until later in the 20th century. I had gross anatomy at Medical College of GA. By then, they were only getting cadavers that were legally willed for scientific study. We also had a memorial service at the end, and remains given to family. I always felt bad about an exhibit from the 30s(as a remember) , that was a skeleton of a woman who had an extreme case of Paget's disease. Paget's is a disease that weakens and reshapes bone, and her case had advanced that her facial bones were unrecognizable. She was a poor sharecropper woman, who was admitted because she was pregnant. The hospital wanted her body because she was such a unique case. I was surprised that her skeleton was still in our lab in 2000 (in a case, forgotten, and in the corner). I did catch a newspaper article from 10 years later that the family was trying to sue the university. I was really surprised that the school hadn't just given her remains back.
Just horrible that something like this can happen no matter what era it was. Makes me wonder how many of those graves are really empty. You go to visit an old grave and you can't even be sure the remains are in there. It's just sad for these poor families. And being buried alive seems like it can almost still happen today since I recently found those two different articles about one person being sent to a NY funeral home and the other to an Iowa funeral home, both in body bags and presumably dead but discovered to be alive by the funeral home staffs. Just scary what could have happened to them.
Yes, I've heard of this also, people who actually arrived in a body bag and were obviously presumed to be dead. In some instances, they in the midst of dying, they may have revived briefly only to die later that day or the next. Can't imagine waking up and slowly realizing you are in an enclosed and refrigerated metal box.
Makes me wanna to be secluded and dead and half rotted before I am found.
the bronz dallas casket jfk left dallas was empty when off loaded at andrews afb but was reunited prior to the official autopsy at 8.15 pm
How times have changed! Here in the UK I wanted to donate my body after I died and they didn't want it 😂 Apparently they are oversubscribed and don't need any more bodies. Thank you for another interesting production.
If being turned into soylent green was good enough for Edward G. Robinson, then it's good enough for you and you and you. Waste not, want not.
Remember, tuesday is soylent green day. Be sure to get to the local distribution center early to get a full ration.
@@satanofficial3902 😂
You old devil, you!
🤭🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
We live near the famous “body farm” in TN. People donate their bodies for forensic science. Fascinating but creepy
Just a suggestion, if you're really determined to donate your body to medical science, why not try to contact the institute for plastinisation in Heidelberg? Which is run by Dr Gunter Van Hagens who is the creator of the bodyworks exhibitions.
Hi Ron, I'm getting on this and starting research today for her grave. Thank you for sharing.
I hope you find her grave
@@jackiejeffries308 I'm going to try my best.
Hello again from Idaho! Hope to see you someday in our area!
Often went to iconic Graceland for walks, so much history there and remarkable statues. Serene spots everywhere. This tale of the young lady and infant is heartbreaking as is the practice of grave robbing, a true nightmare. I'm sure the medical profession went to great lengths to hide these stories so we don't see the scum that exists in their macabre history. Rest in peace for her and all families who suffered these horrors. It was long afterward, but mama lived in the 2300 block of State Street for 26 years. Of course we never heard the story of a pickled body in a barrel. Jeesh.
Grave robbing was a very lucrative business,no doctor forced no black man to do it just like no doctor forced a white man to do it,am from Edinburgh scotland we had our own burk and hare ,they all done it for the money pure and simple.
I find your videos super interesting and love that you tell the stories and explore places that I would never get to go myself. Love the history that you tell about that you can't find everyday.
RIP Ms. Adams and child. 🙏
Oh wow a whole three months. Thats not even a slap on the wrist. Crazy world we live in. Rest in peace Emma
As if her death was hideous enough.. to steal her body had to be so hard for her family. Rrst in peace
Hi again, from Galveston. 😊
Ron, this topic gives me goosebumps! Living in Baltimore, Md, we have Johns Hopkins. There are many articles about Hopkins and his Associates doing exactly this. This fascinates me. The way you narrate is awesome.
As awful as this story is, there was a considerable amount of information gleaned from dead bodies. What I can't understand is why they would have to dig up these bodies when there were no shortage of prisoners and vagrants that they might have been able to use instead. Probably they didn't get bodies because of some religious nonsense. RIP
RIP Emma and Bub. It is morbidly interesting to think about all the empty robbed graves or tortured bodies of those buried alive, lying under the ground at cemeteries
i cannoT beliEve Why humans do This to another, may ShE rip.
Great video Ron. Those pics of the cadavers was kind of gross but fascinating. Now days they cover the face. I think that makes a lot of difference. RIP Emma.
Hi Ron from joliet Illinois first time on your channel love it
Thank you for all of your hard work!
I’ve learned and shared. ❤
Ron, it seems to me that America had a lot of dark history.
Not just America this was done even more in England and Scotland and Ireland. We just followed
I read a story years ago about a woman who mistreated by her husband. The woman's brother killed him and donated his body to some underground doctors who studied bodies. These doctors would never say a word so this brother got away scott free with murder, which the guy probably deserved.
May Emma RIP bizarre story , the picture of the guys wearing top hats caught my attention strange attire they are wearing ! Would love to see a colorized photo .
Ron mentioned that it's quite challenging to find these old stories, and then get the research on them.
I wonder if this will change, as A.I. gets adapted & replaces the microfiche that we still use today?
I bet we will be deluged with hundreds- maybe thousands of incredible cases & stories, long forgotten!🤔
The American Indians and African Americans had no rights and little say so……..even over their person/body. It’s beyond sick. As we were seen as animals. Everything needs to be treated with respect. The medical profession gets away with many crimes. Allegedly! Seen it first hand. I left my practice in real disgust years ago. When CoVID hit and hospitals paid for CoVID deaths. I knew nothing had changed in medicine. I was justified in leaving.
A sad ordeal. It would be horrifying to find out that your love ones body was snatched for science when they should have been resting in peace.
I love your channel, Ron !!
I guess in life we all get pickled in a barrel now and then before we go....😀Ron, you are a world class grave hunter.
How could ghouls dig up graves and nobody notices? I mean, even if it was a fresh burial, I can't imagine the grave not looking disturbed. Great video, Ron!
They were very good at what they did.
I think the cemetery keepers were paid to stay quiet.
Another interesting and poignant story from our past. ❤ love love love the historical details. Fascinating and informative as always. We learn from what you and your team do Ron. Thank you. Amazing to watch.
I’m sure there are many empty graves where a body was taken and it was not discovered. It’s even more chilling to realize that, in the past, people couldn’t distinguish between a deep coma and death. That would mean a number of never-discovered burials of living people! 😳. It’s got to be the worst way to die.
Ron you're a class act.
Hi Ron saying hello from Great Britain (west Sussex).???!!!
Hi Katherine I’m down on the coast of Kent nice to see a fellow Brit on here great channel isn’t it Ron tells a great story doesn’t he
Hi sue lthink all cases , he reporting on all base
Police and witnesses
Report ; newspapers and
Medical. So made interesting watching programmes so you cannot watching the series.
Wow, you make me wonder how many empty graves are at those beautiful 'resorts'! "The Body Snatchers!" What a movie that could be.
i like the illustrations and music on the intro🙂 i dont if you like Cradle of filth Ron😅 but they have some of the best neo-classical gothic Victorian-esque pieces ever heard!
anyway, sad story, but fascinating as always.
thought of you while in Terre Haute over the weekend while attending my daughters grad school graduation at St. Mary's. I didn't get to ISU, too little time but I did think of you. ETA...drive through Fairfield IA on the way to and from Indiana. love it when you name places I've heard of!
I am always so glad when I see your newest ones and ones that I have missed. Do an excellent job and your voice is very nice. Great to listen to you do it just perfect. I ask you please never stop.
May Emma rest in peace!😢 Poor woman!
What does it mean she "doesn't seem to be grounded"?
Very interesting story how say😢 the things people do are crazy things you wouldn’t even think of. May they rest in peace with her baby. Thank you Ron for a great story
Oh my...what a story! Maybe Emma and her baby were placed in an unmarked grave, trying to prevent that from happening a 2nd time. I wonder what became of the husband? Very interesting but also terribly sad.
Hi Ron from Italy.
I remember seeing a grave in Graceland, on the edge of the pond near the mausoleum that faces the water. It looked simple as though family poured concrete over the grave and drew with their finger the simple outline of a mother with babe in her arms. I don’t recall a name. It had to be 25 yrs ago I saw this. Could it be Adams? I live in Texas now I can’t check it out. Maybe some else can.
Very sad what happened in those years. It's scary to think about it. Hope she is at peace.. Be interesting to see if her grave will be found. 💕
That poor woman and her baby! And her husband was no where……RIP Emma you are remembered……
What these grave robbers did is unforgivable however, if it also wasn’t for them we wouldn’t be where we are now medically. These bodies paved the way for so many miracles that today would seem so minute to our transplants or separations to chemo and dialysis.. so although I disagree with what they did I should also thank them and the spirits that remain xxx
God bless these poor souls...may they rest in peace.
Great intro Ron! Another fascinating story. You really go all out to tell all these historical facts! How horrible is that to die in childbirth and then be dug up from your resting place to be dissected like that. I hope they both are resting in peace. ❤😊
Ghoulish.
Shame on them. Not their place to steal her body. Pay backs.
God Bledd her soul and her baby.
Hi Ron from Rita Cross Derby England
That's horrible! Rest In Peace Emma.
Not just grave robbing in those days, you had Drs stealing corpes' from hospitals.
I have found an Emma Adams in Basco cemetery Illinois no info online of birth or death date could it be our missing lady????? Xxx
She’s buried at Graceland where I walked
Thank you for your work. Wish you were my history teacher I would of taken all your classes ❤❤❤RIP Emma
* would have
@@aloysiusdevanderabercrombi470 thanx smarty pants, no really, I looked it up and you’re right,lol
Thank you RC! an very interesting story, yet sad. A beautiful day, a beautiful cemetery, I hope you find Emma's headstone... Your hard work is very much appreciated, so kudos to you once again my friend. I love this channel, REST IN PEACE-EMMA ADAMS! I'll catch you on the rebound RC! signed, Greg the Egg.
Wow what a story. Might they rest in Peace🙏🏻
When walk through old cemeteries and see very old graves im very saddened by the forgotten graves and there stories
Ron, another great story!! I knew a lawyer that stole his brother from one grave and put him in another to be buried with other family members! The music and pics were wonderful! thank you Ron! May Emma and all rest in peace...💔🙏
Oh interesting story
Oh my goodness!
May Emma and her baby rest in peace
How absolutely sad and awful that this occurred so much back then, I never knew this 😢
What was the music that was playing in the beginning of this video?
The music is copyrighted, I paid for it and it’s licensed. It’s made for producers.
@@FacesoftheForgotten oh OK. I thought maybe it was Mozart or something. It just sounded vaguely familiar and even though I like classical music, I am not good at being able to recognize more than a few songs. 😂 Well, you chose well. I love the music and I, for one, would be fine if you kept it. Have a good rest of the day. ✌🏻💟🫂
I wasn’t aware that this went on in the states, have always heard the stories related to events in England. Thanks for reporting.
These videos get better each time No small task Ron, given the number of videos this channel has done
Thanks so much for another great video and you are a great story teller. Received your book today in the mail! Will start reading it this afternoon.
Very cool!!
Interesting story, it’s is odd to hear the manner which the language was written in the old days in newsprint.
Very curious archive photographs of the medical schools
🙋♂️🐈🐈
“Resorts”! Gotta love that.
Thanks for another fascinating story, Ron. I hope that poor lady and her child are finally resting in peace.
Was the baby born still?
Hello from Arkansas
I find it so interesting, that they just did not have Congress or even a State Legislature pass a law or some sort of bill, that allowed people to donate their body to science. So that this kind of tragedy didn't have to happen. I think mainly it's because of the fears and just thinking of the times about death and the body. It's so unreal. Thanks for another great video Ron!
thanks for sharing this story, very interesting history lessson. hopefully someone can help you to find Emma's grave.
Rest in peace Emma Adams and your baby too 🙏🙏
Don't worry about it, they call each other much worse than that.
Perhaps they put her back into an unmarked grave as some sort of protection
And that's why cemeteries are so haunted, they were disturbed or stolen or burried alive😱 great story, thanks
What a great and interesting story but a sad one bc of Emma Adams and that poor baby and how she died how awful 😞,😥😥... Rip Mrs Emma Adams and baby .... hope she is at peace...🙏😇🤱🍼👶....Ron stay safe at there !!! Take care!! Thanks for the story!!!
No doubt some were buried alive. Even now, every once in a while you hear of someone waking up in a funeral home.
Thanks Ron!
She had a placenta previa birth, meaning placanta first. I was a placanta previa baby and even tho my mom carried me 9months, I was only 2 lbs. Back then, there was no way a baby would survive... and that why she hemmoraged.
That is very spooky and crazy. I have heard back in the 1800s. They was a lot of grave Robbins. R.I.P Emma. And thank you Ron for this story. And have a Blessed day
Desecrating a grave is so disrespectful..Rest in Peace Emma and sweet child....You were done wrong...
YIKES!
So disrespectful to disturb a grave. I was raised if messing with any grave that person would be considered cursed and dirty
Thanks Ron, for another horror story from the 1800’s, l really hope Emma is resting in peace now.
Wow Ron - Just your opening pictures sets off the "mind bells" of
how many of those bodies were "re-purposed" from their graves... Sad to
see their bodies expressions and contortions and some of the "morticians"
gleeful expressions like their digging into a pulled pork barbecue. Terribly
sad for Emma and the others that have truly become "The Faces of the Forgotten." 😥🪦
New watcher. Really enjoying the channel. I feel like I'm just walking around with you listening to interesting stories I've never heard before.
Welcome to our group 🌞
Our book yesterday. Can't wait to get it!!!!
That was supposed to be bought you book
Awesome Deborah - I hope you like it
The road to hell is always choked with traffic. But the road to heaven is always under construction unless, of course, your Project Manager is the Almighty himself.
My wife's Uncle's brain was stolen by Florida State when he passed. It was in the newspaper and everything in 1989? Cause her family tried to get his brain back but the state refused and still has him to this day. Would love to contact you maybe you'd do a story and he won't be forgotten
Masha Trimble February of 1975 went missing as she left to sale Girl Scout Cookies I as a Boy Scout helped search for Marsha the city of Nashville was in a desperate state to find her , she was the granddaughter of a Judge . The strange thing happened and her mother predicted that she’d be found on Easter ! She was and was found in a neighbors shed that was searched repeatedly before the 33rd day ! Strange time in Nashville
Is it possible that she & the baby were buried with HER family? Since she died so young, it's possible that they thought that the husband would re-marry and not be buried with her. She & the baby could have been buried with her family so they wouldn't be buried alone. Do we know where her family is buried?
Abuse of a corpse. So disturbing. Can you imagine this happening to your dead wife and child,your daughter and grandchild? I would have gone crazy to learn this. Rip Emma and baby. Thank you Ron for bringing this to light. We love your stories 🙏🏼
How awful 😖 Ron! And this is only one story amoung thousands. Of course the Cemetaries didn't want it known. 🙄 I'm sure we'd be shocked 😲 at the number of empty graves. We are probably not meant to find Emma and her baby. But hopefully they have a peaceful resting spot.
Thanks as always for your hard work Ron 🙏
