Melanie Leigh

Melanie Leigh (b between 1902 & 1907) lived in Savannah, Georgia. At some point, she had an affair with Jerry Dover and blackmailed him in order to keep from telling his wife, Sally, about the affair. On at least one occasion, when he was still managing the Huntsman's Lodge, Jerry sent Scipio to bring some cash to her, which gave Scipio a slight hold over Jerry.

Melanie sent Jerry a letter when he was serving in northern Georgia, not only asking for money, but also asking about him. Jerry got suspicious and took his suspicions to Major Claude Nevers. When Conferate intelligence troops tried to pick Melanie up, they discovered she had already vanished.
