Singular Charge of Shooting at Oxford Woman
In Oxford on July 13 a 19 year old printer's apprentice, William Eden, stood trial for maliciously shooting at Hannah Reeves alias Emme Bennett with intent to murder. The case described a later attempt to shoot the prosecutrix after a day of intoxication and provocation, with witnesses detailing the altercation at Jericho and a thwarted pistol scene at the Prince Albert. The jury returned not guilty after considering whether the act was a drunken frolic or an actual intent to kill.
