John and Mary Sayer did not have a happy marriage, with Mrs. Sayer refusing marital relations and Mr. Sayer turning elsewhere for satisfaction. Mrs. Sayer turned to Noble for help in obtaining a legal separation and the two ran away together in 1712. Mr. Sayer retaliated by bringing an action for criminal conversation against Noble and obtaining a warrant for his wife's arrest. When he found the two living together with his wife's mother, Noble murdered him on the spot, in front of the two constables Sayer had brought with him. Noble was arrested along with Mrs. Sayer and her mother, who were charged as accomplices and later acquitted. Despite the lavish amount of money spent by the two women in his defense, he was condemned to death and executed.
