Career of Patrick and the Rice Murder Case
The death of William Marsh Rice, Texas millionaire, in New York on September 23, 1904, spurred a forgery and murder case. Albert T. Patrick and Charles F. Jones were linked to forged checks and a forged will that favored Patrick. Jones confessed to poisoning Rice with chloroform at Patrick’s behest. Patrick was convicted largely on Jones’s testimony. Patrick later married Addie Francis in his Tombs cell.

Noted Attorney Patrick's Early Career in City History
The article recounts Patrick's legal work starting before 1892, including four years as counsel for William H. Moore, president of the Knickerbocker Phosphate Company. Moore’s suit after Patrick kept $5,500 of the company’s notes led to Moore’s sudden death. The piece also covers Patrick’s representation of the heirs of Mr. Rice’s wife and a contested will, plus a proposed $270,000 compromise while Patrick acted as Rice’s counsel, despite lacking standing as attorney and paying visits to Rice’s rooms.
