Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of the Most Remarkable Criminals Who Have Been Condemned and Executed for Murder, Highway Robberies, House-Breaking, Street Robberies, Coining, or Other Offences, Vol. 2 of 2 Though all Crimes are in this Nature foul, yet some are apparently more heinous, and of a blacker Die than others. Murder has, in all Ages and in all Climates, been amongst the Number of those Offences held the most enormous and the most shocking to human Nature of any other; yet even this admits sometimes of Aggravation, and the Laws of England have made a Distinction between the Murder of a Stranger, and of him or her to whom we owe a civil or natural Obedience; and hence it is that killing a Husband or a Master is distinguished under the Name of Petit Treason. Yet even this in the Story we are about to relate had several heightening Cirstances, the poor Man having both a Son and a Wife imbruing their Hands in his Blood.
