These EVPs are from our Nov 2009 investigation of the MacArthur Museum in Little Rock, a historical site and museum. This first section of EVPs will be regarding David O. Dodd who was held in the Arsenal during his interrogation. He was 17 at the time when he was tried for treason during the Civil War. After the trial he was hung on the adjacent property. There has been lots of speculation as to his sources as well as whom he was protecting. The information was never revealed by him.

These EVPs are related to other purported activities occurring at the arsenal such as a Lady in White, Piano music, Douglas MacArthur, questions specific to the Arsenal and miscellaneous.
   
  Music heard
The line of questions were related to the piano music that had been heard. Investigator commented on how quiet it was in the area where the construction for the new exhibits were being installed. He stated some music would sure be nice. While it is difficult to make out the words hopefully you can hear some of the melody where his request was granted. While faint we were able to make out the following words of the song.
     
     
  "My name is Hannah Sheppard""shut yo mouth"
One of several EVPs heard with the name, this EVP relates to the identity of the Lady in White seen at the top of the staircase. At the end another voice tells her to shut her mouth. During a Seance/Investigation in 1985 the description was different indicating she wore a black dress.
