A propos de cet article

Rare Account of a 14-Year-Old Murderer [Murder]. Bell, John Any Bird [1816-1831]. A Narrative of the Facts Relative to the Murder of Richard Faulkner Taylor, In the Woods Between Rochester and Maidstone, On Friday the 4th of March, 1831, With the Proceedings on the Coroner's Inquest: The Highly Interesting Evidence of James Bell, Not Adduced on the Trial, Comprising a Complete and Circumstantial History of the Diabolical Affair, Together with the Trial of John Any Bird Bell for the Murder: Including the Confession of the Prisoner, And an Account of His Behaviour After Condemnation: Also an Abstract from the Very Excellent Discourse of the Rev. J. Winter, Being the Condemned Sermon Preached at the Chapel of the Gaol on the Sunday Previous to the Execution: To Which is Added, A Sketch of the Prisoner's Life. Rochester [England]: Printed and Sold by S. Caddel; And May be Had of Every Bookseller in the County, [1831]. 42 pp. Lithograph portrait frontispiece of John and James Bell. Octavo (9" x 5-3/4").
