Silence punctuated only by the sound of shuddering breath.  Movement was painfully stiff, muscle screamed as he tried to sit up but something solid prevented him.  Fumbling blindly he tried to paint a picture of his surroundings with his hands, his fingertips brushed against the rough wood imprisoning him.  A box?  No a coffin!  Greetings Everyone!  Ever heard of getting buried alive? Sounds scary right??  So what would have happened of Marjorie Halcrow Erskine of Scotland who was indeed buried alive in a shallow grave by a sexton, who intended on returning later to steal her jewelry?

By the way, the poor guy died instantly from fright, talk about 'godspeed'.(pun intended!) Let’s see another case,...
