Such were the circumstances in the murder of Mrs. Eliza Billings. In the Fall of 1878, reporters from all the major newspapers in the country descended on Saratoga County for "the trial of the century". In what was to be the longest and most expensive criminal trial in the one hundred year history of the United States, the extremely wealthy Jesse Billings, Jr. was tried for the murder of his wife. To Spend Eternity Alone is more than just the story of a trial. It is a history of the deep animosity and the uneven distribution of power that existed in small towns at the beginning of the age of invention. Since stumbling onto the "Billings tragedy", Dr. Hollis Palmer has spent virtually all his available time researching the events and people that made this case Saratoga County's most infamous murder. ; Signed by Author .
