"Isaac Smith Kalloch accused of adultery in this prosecution was a Baptist clergyman and was supported by the trustees of his church throughout this affair. . The jury could not reach a verdict in the case which was tried in the Massachusetts Court of Common Pleas Criminal Session in Cambridge Massachusetts" Cohen. Kalloch was defended by the eminent lawyer and politician Richard Henry Dana Jr. 1815-1882. The Full Report includes the judge's charge but not the jury's final verdict. Kalloch moved to San Francisco where he continued to generate controversy by skirting the bounds of decency. When he decided to run for mayor of San Francisco in 1879 he came under attack from the San Francisco Chronicle's editor-in-chief Charles de Young who was backing another candidate. DeYoung hoping to end Kalloch's campaign accused the minister of having an affair. Kalloch responded by claiming that De Young's mother ran a brothel. In response DeYoung ambushed Kalloch on a street and shot him twice. Kalloch survived the wounds. Due in part to the sympathy of voters he was elected the 18th Mayor of San Francisco.

réf. 81778 January 1844; Edge hill. 12mo 3 pp. Bifolium. Good on lightly-aged and creased paper. Wood begins by recalling 'the savage bigotry and infuriate hostility of the Manchestr. Tories at the time you mention towards the liberals'. He does not think an attempt was made to put the Oath of Allegiance to those on the recipient's list. 'The lives of 6-8 men of high Character and standing in the Town were placed in jeopardy by the perjury of two Villains and they were tried at Lancaster for either Treason or Sedition. I think for the former. One of the Wretches ran away and did not appear at the Trial I was present the other named Dunn on giving his testimony in Court was convicted of Perjury and ordered into custody immedy. by the Judge & afterwards imprisoned for 2 years.' Those accused by Dunn were 'triumphantly acquitted'. Wood names the 'Revd: Jno. Griffiths a Fellow of the Old Church' as 'a leading instigator of the proceedings' against them. Wood concludes by offering 'any information' he can give 'relating to the diabolical transactions of that Period'. In his article 'Luddism and politics in northern counties' 1979 John Dinwiddy describes Wood as a 'wealthy Unitarian' and 'a member of a 'group of middle-class reformers'. The background of the trial is given in Walker's entry in the Oxford DNB: 'On 11 December 1792 . Walker's house on South Parade and the offices of the Manchester Herald were besieged by a "church and king" mob. . Manchester authorities and loyalists had bribed an Irish weaver and local radical named Thomas Dunn to give false evidence against Walker and despite failing to indict him of high treason he and nine other Manchester reformers were charged with conspiring to overthrow the king constitution and government. Walker who employed the defence of Thomas Erskine and Felix Vaughan was tried at Lancaster assizes on 2 April 1794 but he was acquitted largely on account of Dunn's perjury.' 8 January 1844; Edge hill. unknown

John Thurtell an unlucky gambler was deeply in debt to the bookmaker William Weare. Deciding to take revenge Thurtell along with his friends Joseph Hunt and William Probert murdered Weare in a grisly manner and tossed his body into a pond. Thurtell tried to escape conviction. He was hanged. Hunt confessed his involvement and stated that Thurtell was the killer. He was sent to the penal colony in Botany Bay Australia. Charges against Probert were dropped in exchange for his wife's testimony which minimized his role in the crime. Our account of the trial and its aftermath was produced by Pierce Egan a popular journalist and sportswriter. Thurtell himself was an admirer--the chance to read Egan's coverage of a recent prizefight was purportedly among his final wishes. Recollections was issued separately as the appendix which is referenced on the title page of Account. unknown

He remains one of the last individuals in Great Britain to be hanged for forgery before it ceased to be a capital offense in 1836. The ownership inscription on the title page belongs to "Thos.

1925réf. List38112New York City: United Press International 1925. Photograph measuring 8 x 9 ¾ inches. With caption recto; manuscript caption and UPI and "Not For Publication" stamps verso. Excellent. A photograph of John Scopes Clarence Darrow and others during Tennessee's famous "Monkey Trial" in which Scopes was charged with violating the Butler Act which outlawed teaching human evolution in public schools. The case arose when the ACLU put out an advertisement for a teacher willing to violate the Act; community leaders from Dayton Tennessee saw an opportunity both to test the law and to draw attention to their community. New teacher John Scopes agreed to claim to have taught evolution likely falsely as he had not yet taught biology at all. He was represented by Clarence Darrow who was set against the prosecution's William Jennings Bryan-two of the most prominent legal minds of their day. Scopes was found guilty-though the verdict was overturned on a technicality-and the Butler Act stayed Tennessee law until 1967. United Press International unknown

The first stanza reads: 'BRITAIN! brave and generous nation Listen to my plaintive strain Tho' exalted be my station! Day and night I sigh in pain; Here I came a helpless stranger With no friend to take my part Braved the stormy ocean's danger From home for ever to depart.' She appeals to her 'Good Uncle' i.e. King George III whose wife is described as 'your Queen a pious lady' asking him how he can stand by and 'Let a shameless woman trample On decency's offended laws'. A later reference to 'the Countess' makes it clear that this is Frances Villiers Countess of Jersey. The last stanza reads: 'There from empty pomp retreating Childless mother widow'd wife! My lost titles none repeating Let me lead a peaceful life. When you think on my sad story Britons drop a pitying tear! And fair England's fame and glory Shall to me be ever dear!'

Johnson Joseph 1738-1809 Publisher. Proceedings in an Action for Debt Between the Right Honorable Charles James Fox Plaintiff And John Horne Tooke Esq. Defendant. Published by the Defendant. London: Printed for and Sold by the Booksellers 1792. 39 1 pp. Octavo 8-1/4" x 5-1/4". Disbound stab-stitched pamphlet. Moderate toning light foxing light rubbing to extremities final two leaves partially detached owner name "Renier" to verso of title page owner initials "AR" to verso of final leaf. $250. First edition one of two issues from 1792. This was a legally and politically important trial. Tooke one of the great English radicals of the period opposed Fox in the Westminster elections of 1790. Defeated by a large majority he petitioned the House of Commons for redress based on allegations of riotous conduct by the electors. The action was declared frivolous and Tooke was sued by Fox for 198 damage. To make matters worse under the 1789 law against vexatious suits Tooke was held liable as well for costs. The trial heard before Lord Kenyon gave Tooke a platform from which he condemned Parliamentary corruption and spoke eloquently against the severe limitations imposed upon juries in this and other trials of a similar nature--from a legal point of view perhaps the most interesting feature of the trial. Counsel for Fox was Thomas Erskine. Despite its topicality this pamphlet had an unusually long history; it was re-issued in 1793 1812 1815 and 1819. This copy belonged to Anne Renier 1911-1988. She and her husband Fernand Gabriel Renier 1905-1988 were important collectors of popular books pamphlets and ephemera. English Short-Title Catalogue N11983. unknown

A report of a turning point in the Reign of King Louis-Philippe I also known as the July Monarchy 1830-1848: the trial that followed the failed 1831 uprising against the king a member of the House of Orleans provoked by Legitimists people who denied the legitimacy of a non-Bourbon monarch. This event was sparked by a politically charged memorial service for the Bourbon Duke of Berry who was assassinated in 1820. It ended with the repression of the Legitimists. The wry inscription reads "offered by the accused Valerius." A fervent Legitimist he was a primary organizer and financier of the memorial ceremony which was seen by government as an incitement to riot. Valerius and his co-defendants were ultimately acquitted.

1963réf. 1059421963/1965. Tutti i quotidiani sono in ottimo stato di conservazione nella loro piega originale del mezzo. Di ogni numero è stato conservato il foglio o i fogli interi inerenti le notizie che giorno dopo giorno venivano riportate sul processo sui vari protagonisti sui testimoni e sui più diversi pareri di esperti. Oggi si parlerebbe di femminicidio allora era più l'aspetto "peccaminoso" che faceva presa sui lettori: schiere di amanti sfilarono davanti al Pubblico Ministero al giudice ai giurati a principi del Foro che accettarono la difesa. La vita di Carlo Nigrisoli i suoi atteggiamenti i suoi interventi o peggio i suoi mancati interventi portarono quasi immediatamente il pubblico a schierarsi verso un atteggiamento colpevolista; ma interessante notare anche la svolta presa da questo processo verso un campo abbastanza nuovo per il periodo: le prove scientifiche addirittura atomiche. Ne esce da tutto un desolante quadro di una famiglia distrutta fra tradimenti superficilità paure misteri e particolarmente ne esce la solitudine di una donna che giorno dopo giorno ha visto svanire la fiaba del suo matrimonio e forse si è abbandonata quasi ad un "inevitabile" destino cattivo e dall'altra parte di un uomo certamente non probo ma possibile mai che possa essere così irrazionale che dopo aver deciso di uccidere la moglie lasci innumerevoli tracce del suo delitto tanto da essere incriminato e condannato Forse solo una cosa importante allontana questo delitto dai tanti che oggi ci vengono mostrati quasi quotidianamente: il rispetto che ebbero i nonni i giudici gli amici per i bambini di Ombretta stringendo attorno a loro una impenetrabile cortina di difesa.
