Attempted murder shocks Drury Lane household scene
Nighttime screams from 3 Featherscourt, Drury Lane, led to a woman named Margaret Hannan being stabbed in the neck. Surgeons at King’s College Hospital fought to save her as husband James Hannan was arrested at Bow Street amid claims of intoxication and quarrels. He denied the charge, saying his wife stabbed herself. Inspector Logan led the investigation and Hannan was remanded on further proceedings. The case hinges on witnesses and hospital notes.
