Very nostalgic man,

1) People killed Aesop by stoning him and throwing him off of a cliff.

2) The mystery was never solved. Though, it was believed that either a huge monster showed up and ate up all the people in the ship, or foreseeing a huge hurricane, all the crew left the ship in a life boat but they never made it to the shore.

3) A goat was kept in the ground floor room in order to attract the tiger. And when the tiger got in the room for goat, somebody locked the door from outside (?).

Ha ha ha. Man it was ten years ago, thanks for bringing my memory back.
