Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 3: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc.; January-June, 1875

Tyburn tickets - Any one who had prosecuted a man to death for a criminal offence used to obtain a Tyburn Ticket, which conferred on him and his heirs male future exemption from serving on a jury. The late Mr. Bird, of Hampton Bishop, Herefordshire, inherited two of these tickets, which passed, like a freehold estate, from father to son. Perhaps some reader of N. Q. Can give further information on this point.
