The Hammersmith Ghost
Criminal
What Happened in Hammersmith?
A shoemaker called James Graham was arrested on a charge of committing a public nuisance. He said his aim had actually been to cause fear and terror of some local apprentice lads who had apparently been bullying and terrorizing his children.
