MURDER TRIAL
Account of the Murder of the late Mr William Weare . the coroner's inquest the trials of the prisoners and the execution.
William Weare was a solicitor of Lyon's Inn and a gambler. His killer was John Thurtell 1794–1824 a sports promoter amateur boxer a former Royal Marine officer and a son of the Mayor of Norwich. Thurtell owed Weare a gambling debt of £300 an immense sum at the time equivalent to £24500 in 20151. Thurtell believed Weare had cheated him of the money. Whatever the truth when Weare demanded payment Thurtell murdered him rather than pay up. He invited Weare to join him and his friends – Joseph Hunt a tavern landlord and William Probert a former convict and alcohol merchant – for a weekend of gambling at Probert's cottage at the site of Oaks Close off Gills Hill Lane subsequently popularly known as Murder Lane23 Radlett. On 24 October 1823 they journeyed from London in Thurtell's horse-drawn gig but Weare was killed in a dark lane just short of their destination. The gruesome and callous events created such public sensation that it attracted numerous ballads and theatre shows at the time along with comment by the essayist Babington Macaulay and the crime used variously in the work of Sir Walter Scott William Hazllitt and Robert Louis Stevenson. After the trial one of the accused was hanged and another Joseph Hunt was transported to Botany Bay Australia.<br /><br />Charles Joseph Hullmandel 1789–1850 studied art and printmaking and is considered amongst the most important figures in the development of British lithography. He developed a method for reproducing gradations in tones and for creating the effect of soft color washes which enabled the reproduction of Romantic landscape paintings of the type made popular by J. M. W. Turner. Hullmandel's essay <i>The Art of Drawing on Stone</i> 1824 was an important handbook of lithography issued the same year as this account of the trial.<br />

MURDER.
A Copy of Verses, on W. & J. Dyon, Father and Son, Who was executed at York, for the wilful murder of Mr. John Dyon, of Brancroft, neaf Finningley, brother to the former and uncle to the latter, on the 16th of February, 1828, by shooting him, as he entered the gate of the field leading to his own House, as he returned from Doncaster Market.
Single sheet printed on one side only (214 x 135 mm), printed black on white fragile paper, mounted on card, soiled and creased. From the London Times, February 25, 1828, page 3, Column 1 : "It is this week our painful duty to record one of the most cold-blooded murders that ever darkened the annals of crime, a deed which has spread a wider gloom and deeper horror than any event which has occurred in this neighbourhood within the remembrances of the eldest inhabitants." John Dyon was the second son of a wealthy landowner in Yorkshire, England near Doncaster. He lived a hard working, respectable and quiet life. He married the lovely Betty Conway and together they had 3 daughters, Elizabeth (from whom we descend), Mary and Matilda. Working closely with his father, he often gained favors and gifts from the older man. In 1826 and 1827 alone, it is recorded that he received 63 acres of land and 300 pounds sterling. His older brother, William also received many gifts from their father as a young man, but the money was mostly squandered and drunk, and eventually the gifts stopped coming. So William struggled and John thrived? and William stewed, and his resentment grew. William frequently ranted of his anger to his son, John, poisoning the younger man's mind against his uncle. On Saturday, the 16th of February, 1828, John Dyon attended the market in Doncaster (12 miles away) with a couple of friends as was his custom. On his return home that evening, when he dismounted his horse to open the gate to his property, he was assaulted, shot, and left for dead. His wife, concerned when he didn't arrive home at the time he should, sent a servant to look for him. The servant found John's horse standing near the gate, but did not see John lying a few feet away. They found him in the morning lying where he had bled out. Mr. E. B. Denison, Esq. and the local constable rode out from Doncaster immediately upon receiving the news Sunday morning and began their investigation. Mr. Denison, a student of the new forensic sciences, was pleased to find the murder scene offered an abundance of clues. It had rained on Saturday and the ground was quite moist, then the temperature dropped below freezing overnight, capturing the escape route of the assailants. Mr. Denison observed that there were two attackers; one smaller and lighter than the other. He noted that these persons were relatively wealthy because they possessed a pair boots with both a right and left foot. He also noted that the larger footprints had a distinctive toe-out gait. An inquest was called by the coroner. After the presentation of evidence, the jury delivered a verdict of "Willful murder by person or persons unknown". Many in the area knew of the ill will that William Dyon and his son held for William's brother, John Dyon. By Thursday of the following week, both were arrested. They provided alibis, insisting that they had been nowhere near the scene of the crime. The magistrate felt he had to let them go. After his release by the authorities, William went to a pub in Gainesborough, and bragged there that he had "humbugged" the local magistrate, apparently disclosing further details of the crime. His brags were soon brought to the attention of Mr. Denison and additional inquiries were made. A farmer who had previously worked for William, but was now in John's employ, admitted that he knew of William and young John's plan to kill John Dyon. He also said that he had hidden the gun at his home for a week prior to the murder, and that William had bribed him and threatened him to keep quiet about the plan. Soon, William and his son, John were arrested. The constable searched their homes and found the boots, a pair having both right and left feet, and the gun. During the trial, the farmer, John White, testified to everything he knew, including the fact that William had showed up the evening of the killing to pick up his gun. Several witnesses came forward to testify to the ill will that William and his son bore for the deceased. They also testified that William had a distinctive gait, walking with his toes pointed outward. William Dyon and John, his son, were hanged for their crime on April 4, 1828. William staunchly declared his innocence throughout, but his son confessed to all as they placed the noose around his neck. No other copy located.

Then Mansfield threatened to publish letters from Fisk revealing some of his transactions.

Walters ran a tavern on the Delaware-Maryland border where she liked to murder traveling slave traders and steal their slaves money and other valuables. Her murder of a slave-trader is depicted in one of the woodcuts. Her depravity is blamed in part on the morally corrosive effects of slavery: "Although born in a free country where slavery is abhorred Canada she soon imbibed a taste for the traffic in slaves as our readers may easily perceive that her location was in a slave state where morality is not very exalted as such a course could not have been carried on in a free state so long without meeting the eye of detection." Walters began her career by killing her child and husband she then became the leader of a criminal gang. OCLC locates 4 copies in law libraries. Harvard Social Law University of Missouri Yale.

Nikolaidou, Sophia
The Scapegoat: A Novel
From a major new Greek writer, never before translated, a wide-ranging, muck-raking, beautifully written novel about the unsolved murder of an American journalist in Greece in the forties. In 1948, the body of an American journalist is found floating in the bay off Thessaloniki. A Greek journalist is tried and convicted for the murder . . . but when he is released twelve years later, he claims his confession was the result of torture.Flash forward to modern day Greece, where a young, disaffected high school student is given an assignment for a school project: find the truth. Based on the real story of famed CBS reporter George Polk [ Journalism's prestigious Polk Awards were named after him] who was investigating embezzlement of U.S. aid by the right-wing Greek government, Nikolaidou's novel is a sweeping saga that brings together the Greece of the post-war period with the current era, where the country finds itself facing turbulent political times once again.Told by key players in the story - the dashing journalist's Greek widow; the mother and sisters of the convicted man; the brutal Thessaloniki Chief of Police; a U.S. Foreign Office investigator - it is the modern-day student who is most affecting of them all, as he questions truth, justice and sacrifice . . . and how the past is always with us. The author won the 2010 Athens Prize for Literatur/ 247p. Name on ffep, else New. Book
