The Wolverhampton Tragedy: Death and the Respectable Mr Lawrence
John Benson
Ruth Hadley, a young Wolverhampton woman, died in 1908 from a gunshot to the head. Her lover Edward Lawrence was acquitted of her murder, though many thought he was lucky to get away scot-free. Despite heavy drinking, disreputable behaviour and bankruptcy, Lawrence still lived in apparent respectability. Victorian attitudes to crime laid bare.
