After a career of forgery and debt across England, he arrived in the Lake District impersonating a Member of Parliament. There, he seduced and bigamously married Mary Robinson, the "Beauty of Buttermere." The scandal became a national sensation, immortalized by the Lake Poets. Hatfield was eventually captured and hanged for forgery in 1803. The so-called "Borrowdale Letter," a popular satirical piece in Cumberland dialect, was written by Isaac Ritson, a schoolmaster known for his dialect works. A second edition of the Life was published in 1864. Our copy of the first edition was owned by maritime historian, journalist and book collector Charles Henry Bateson [1903-1974]. He was an avid collector of books relating to crime, a trait reflected in the striking design of his bookplate. OCLC locates 2 copies of this edition worldwide (British Library, National Library of Scotland). Library Hub adds a copy at the University of Manchester.
