Light browning and a few minor stains faint horizontal and vertical fold line chipping to edges section lacking from bottom margin just touching bottom right corner of border a few tears along fold lines with no loss to text later repairs to verso. $1950. Abraham Prescott was convicted of the murder of Sally Cochran following two separate highly publicized trials held in Concord New Hampshire in September 1834 and September 1835.

Originally scheduled to be hanged in Hopkinton New Hampshire on December 23 1835 his execution was delayed and he was ultimately executed on January 6 1836. This rare broadside features a verse account that explicitly frames the murder as a crime of passion capturing the sensationalized public sentiment of the era: "Oh! lust accursed lust! 'twas this / For which I did the deed; / Forfeiting heaven and life and bliss / Forfeiting all I need."
