Hargrave Lee Adam Murder Most Mysterious

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. It is true that in the remarkable Wallace case, as in the equally remarkable case of Dr. Knowles, there was a conviction. In both cases, however, the convictions were subsequently quashed and the accused went free. Thus neither of these cases can be said, in the fullest sense of the word, to have been finished, since nobody paid the ultimate legal penalty for the crime. In the Wallace case I have been enabled, through the courtesy of the proprietors and Editor of the Liverpool Post, to quote freely from the very excellent report of the trial which appeared in that journal.
