[Chris Scott]

The case below is one of manslaughter which came to trial in June 1891
"CHARLES LAWSON, alias CARL LARSON (20), was indicted for , and charged on the Coroner's inquisition with, the manslaughter of Carl Johan Petersen."
The interest lies in that one of the witnesses was a certain Albert Bachert!

Intresting find Chris, I have been looking through the records and found a few snippets of intrest on the Stephenson family.

They moved from Hull after several run in's with the law, and ended up getting into trouble in London!
