The Sad Case of Murder in St Erth 1909

Below is a copy of a letter written to Leslie Attwood in February 2009. It is a sad affair and one that we hope will never be repeated in St Erth!

The writer of the letter sent three pieces of documentary evidence, a photograph of Emily Barnes, a newspaper article on the charging and trial of the murderer and details of the funeral. There is also a picture of "Big Lane" 1905, which became Tredrea Lane. To see these please click on the links below:
