Suitcase Mystery



Staff at the University of Abertay Dundee in the U.K. discovered a suitcase belonging to Margaret Maule, who worked as a nurse during World War I. It  contains Maule's diary, photographs, a newspaper article she wrote, and other WWI memorabilia.

"The contents of this suitcase are absolutely fascinating, but we know very little about the person who owned it," a staff member said. "There’s no record of her ever having been to Abertay, so how it came to be in our possession is a complete mystery."

Margaret had no connection to the University. How did the suitcase arrive there?
