The Trial of Mary Ann Bickford

Mary Ann Bickford's body was found on October 27th of 1845 in a Boston boarding house. Albert Terrell had been seen with her earlier that evening and a witness account also described him speaking with a stablekeeper to try to get transport away from the city. They were actually known to be engaged in an affair, both of them were married. The prosecution stated at one point that she had actually moved to Boston with a paramour that she presumably met on that first visit to the citythat was obviously not her husband.
