About this listen

Mr. Hayes returns from war to his lonely wife to find her afrolic with two comely boarders. His head is shortly thereafter found by the side of the Thames...and then encapsulated in a glass jar. Warwickshire, England, in the year 1785 and a lovely young lady whose married name was Catherine Hayes and whose ambition was to be a widow, this is the story of John Hayes, his head, and how they were parted.
