1805ref. 4040Charleston South Carolina: Printed at the Office of the Charleston Courier 1805. First Edition. Fair. 8vo. 3-127 INCOMPLETE: lacking half-title title-page here in facsimile and pp. 93-127 paperstock browned throughout p. 5 stained and a little soiled. Recent sympathetic wrappers title written in ink on upper cover. Described in 1893 as "One of the rarest of American trials" Catalogue of the Extraordinary Collection of Law Trials made by the late Edmund B. Wynn no. 1275. Whereas our copy is significantly incomplete we invite all haters to find another but please be patient because no copy complete or otherwise has appeared at auction since 1963. McDade explains that this is "an unusual case at Goosecreek South Carolina in which the wife's lover murdered her husband outside the house and put the body in bed with the wife who attempted to conceal the crime. He was convicted and hanged. She with Southern consideration for womankind was acquitted" but nonetheless she was scorned shamed and humiliated for violating her marriage vow. But the trial was of national significance because "the Nettles-Cannon Trial gives a preliminary glimpse of the scope of state efforts to transform the criminal justice system in the first decades after the ramification of the Constitution and suggests some of the reasons those efforts remained incomplete" Dale p. 23. "The trial of Joshua Nettles and Elizabeth Cannon 1805 who presumably conspired to kill Cannon's husband serves as an example to show how key actors in the process from the detection of a crime to the actual trial were ordinary members of the community how legal arguments had little impact on the outcome of the trial how jurors judged the law rather than the facts or how Nettles did not appeal his eventual conviction. The state and the people in this period cooperated in order to achieve justice." Birte Christ 2012 review of Elizabeth Dale's "Criminal Justice in the United States 1789-1939" online at H-Soz-Kult. Dale discusses the significance of the trial on pp. 23-30. Finally: "The S.C. Carpenter reports on these two cases may be the earliest surviving records of full trial proceedings in South Carolina." W. Lewis Burke "A History of the Opening Statement From Barristers to Corporate Lawyers: A Case Study of South Carolina" in: American Journal of Legal History 1993 vol. XXXVII p. 38. This trial was featured in the 2014-2015 exhibition of "Murder and Women in 19th-Century America Trial Accounts in the Yale Law Library." COMMENT: This copy contains the complete transcripts of the witness testimonies and cross-examinations and all the arguments of the DEFENSE pleaded by the lawyers of Joshua Nettles and Elizabeth Cannon. It does not contain "The Defense Being Gone Through The Attorney-General Rose in reply and said: May it please your Honor" etc. The Attorney-General's text continues through pp. 93-114; following it is "The Judge's Charge" pp. 115-124 and an unrelated account of the execution of Richard Dennis Jun. which was appended to this edition because "it came too late to be published with the trial of Dennis and is therefore according to promise published with that of Nettles" pp. 125-127.

1879ref. 41099London 1879. Carpenter William B. 1813-85. Autograph letter signed to Mr. John Paget 1811-98. London 56 Regents Part Rd. N.W. June 2 1879. 4pp. 178 x 114 mm. A few tiny pin-holes but fine otherwise. From English physiologist and naturalist William B. Carpenter who "helped shape the modern life sciences in Britain Oxford DNB through both his writings and his work as a teacher and administrator at what is now the University of London. Carpenter performed valuable researches in marine zoology and was directly influential in persuading the British Admiralty to sponsor the Challenger expedition the first major scientific study of the deep oceans. Carpenter is also recognized as one of the founders of the modern theory of the adaptive unconscious-he observed that the human perceptual system and the mechanism of human thought operates almost completely outside of conscious awareness. Carpenter's letter which discusses a false confession to murder made by a mentally unbalanced young man reads in part as follows: Dear Mr. Paget In turning out my papers at the University today I have come upon a document which I forward to you containing the Father's statement of his Son's relation to the "Brompton Murder" case with full particulars of the latter's confession and its inconsistency with the facts. I believe that I did not send in this to the Home Secy.; but that what I specially urged upon him was the evidence with which Knowles had supplied me of the "cracky" nature of the youth's mind and of the obviously hereditary tendency to brood as shown in the father and aunt-the latter an old servant of Knowles. And I remember also that there was evidence of the youth having had money in the Savings Bank and of his having drawn out a pound just before the Crystal Palace Police Fête. This altogether made so strong an impression on Mr. Bruce that he at once commuted the sentence; and the family were so sensible that the lad was not fit to take care of himself that they expressed no disappointment at his not having received a free pardon. . . . Carpenter's correspondent was the police magistrate and author John Paget whose Paradoxes and Puzzles published in 1874 included accounts of a number of sensational crimes. We have not been able to identify the murder case to which Carpenter refers in his letter. . unknown
