Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. 2 Vols bound as 1. Willard Clark 217pp; Matt F. Ward 176pp. Library style binding, with reddish brown cloth boards, gilt titles on spine. Square, tight binding and unmarked pages. Foxing throughout Clark volume. Toning to the Ward volume but no evidence of foxing. Two pamphlets bound as one, each the lone edition of the title in question. Finely detailed contemporaneous sources on a pair of infamous nineteenth-century murders. In the case of the Clark trial, he "was apparently infatuated with a girl who married Wight. With no warning he shot Wight through the head while Wight was kneeling to tie a bundle. The crime and trial were in New Haven, Connecticut; Clark was acquitted on the ground of insanity." The Ward case began with a matter of school discipline and devolved from there: "Butler, the principal of Louisville High School, had whipped Matt Ward's younger brother. Matt demanded an apology of Butler, not for the whipping but for calling the boy a liar. The apology not forthcoming, words followed; and Ward, having come prepared for blood, shot Butler. Kentucky justice was that Ward was promptly acquitted. A pair of uncommon pamphlets, available in a single, bound volume. Size: Octavo. Book.
