Her body was found strangled with her expensive jewelry missing. Chung was convicted and executed at Strangeways Jail on December 6 1928 after his appeal was rejected. often referred to as the "Chinese Honeymoon Murder" was a notable early-20th-century case involving Asian tourists in Britain. ; In the Lonely Inn murder George Walter Frederick Hayward would be the last person to be executed behind the grim walls of Nottingham Prison. There was little doubt that Hayward was guilty of the murder of Mrs Amy Collinson wife of the landlord of the New Inn now called the Lantern Pike at Little Hayfield in the Peak District. The crime was discovered by Mrs Collinson's husband when he returned home from working in Glossop on an October night in 1927 to find his isolated pub locked and in darkness. When he got inside he found his wife dead in a pool of blood on the kitchen floor her throat cut from ear to ear. Evidence suggested she had been battered from behind as she cleared the fire grate then dragged across the floor - out of sight of a window - where the killer had used a carving knife to finish her off. About £40 - money used for the till float - was missing. At today's values Mrs Collinson was killed for around £2000. Jobless traveller George Hayward a friend of the couple but a man saddled with debt quickly fell under suspicion and when police searched his house they found money stuffed up the chimney. They also found blood on his clothing but the most crucial evidence was discovered thanks to a spider's web. A sharp-eyed constable searching around a cistern in Hayward's house noticed a broken web. He checked inside the cistern and there he found a piece of lead pipe. Hayward had used it to batter Mrs Collinson. Hayward's trial was held in February 1928 at Derby Assizes in front of Mr Justice Hawke. It was noted by the local reporters that each morning the judge had a vase of fresh flowers on his bench. On opening day it was white lilac and daffodils.The case became known as "the lonely inn murder". ; Wallace Benton a 70-year-old smallholder. of Ttlnev Saint Lawrence.

When co-workers at Hewson Manufacturing recognised the distinctive Leicester Regiment tiger badge in newspaper photos as belonging to David Greenwood-who claimed to have sold it for two shillings-police discovered not only was the missing button matched by a tear in his buttonless coat but that he was a former neighbor of the murdered girl leading to his conviction despite protests of innocence that would echo through history. ; extremely scarce Humphries title ; FINE <br/> <br/> Heinemann ltd., London, [1931] hardcover‎
