Note 11 — A SUFFOLK PARSON.

Reading edition

She was hanged on 26th June 1815, for attempting to poison her master’s family; and her story, reprinted from ‘Maga,’ forms a chapter in Paget’s ‘Paradoxes and Puzzles’ (1874). That chapter I read to my father the summer before his death. It disappointed him, for he had always cherished the popular belief in her innocence.
