| The famous Bermondsey murder
which occurred in London. in ls49. may
be still fresh in the memory Of many
readers. A man named Patrick O'Con.
nor was murdered for his money. by q
married couple named George Mederic
Manning and Maria Manning. The pair
deliberately planned all the steps to the
muder beforehand. and the means OF con.
cealing the crime after its perpetration
They dug large cavity under their
kitchen floor. covered with boards. in
which to hide the body Of the victim.
When the deed wos done and they had
possessed themselves Of their ill-gotten
gains, they carefully concealed ell evil
dence OF the murder, and Aed--cne to
Edinburg aud one to the Isle Of Jersey.
The body OF the murdered man being
found in their house, the public anxiety
for their detection and punishment was
wrought up to the highest pitch. Large
rewards were offered; the exertions Of the
detective police we're untiring; and, at
length, both the criminals were arrested,
tried and capitally convicted. Mrs. Man
ming. who is shown by the testimony to
have been the gultier of the two murder
ers, was woman Of the greatest firmness,
self-possession and apparent innocence.
There was found in their trunk when ar
rested, the Psalms Of David, collection
Of sacred poems, and manual Of devo-
tion for every day in the year. The u.s.
ual circumstances of husband and wife
suffering together upon the same scaffold,
for the same offsnse, drew an unpreced-
entedly large concourse of spectators to
their execution. 1t was estimated that
$4,000 persons were collected together.
The most disgraceful scenes Of crowding,
riot, and rowdyism were manifested, and
the use made of the occasion by Charles
Dickens and other opponents of the dea.h
penalty in England afforded strong ar
sumet against the policy of public exc.
,utions.
In the same year, a young woman,
named Sarah Thomas was hung at Brs-
tol for the savage murder Of Miss Jeffries,
by beating her over the haed with
large stone. She confessed the crime.
In 1856, Mrs. Elizabeth Brown was
convicted of the murder of her husband,
at Dorchester, England. and hanged, al
though the evidence Of her crime was
entirely circumstantial.
In 1862, no less than two female exc
outions took place in Great Britain.
Mary Reid was executed at Dumfries,
for the murder Of a woman; and Gather
inc Wilson was executed in London, for
Mrs. Soames, by poison
lpg.
