Felix Spyczyk was an immigrant from Poland who worked for Philadelphia socialite Nick Bartleby from 1922 to 1929. Angry at being fired by Bartleby on Christmas Day 1929, Spyczyk killed Violet Polley in a moment of rage and abandoned her body in a ravine. Ironically, the murder weapon - a golden clock Violet had been given by Bartleby's little sister, Muriel - provided Spyczyk with the necessary cash ($75) to found Spyczyk Shipping, the company that would let him die as a rich man several decades later. By the time the Polley Case was reopened in 2006, Spyczyk Shipping was headed by Felix's grandson, Daniel Spyczyk.
