Notes

FROM THE TRIAL OF GEO C HERSEY, MURDER OF BETSEY FRANCES TIRRELL (who died 3 May 1860 in Weymouth, Norfolk, Ma)

Cyrus Sherman sworn — examined by Mr. Baker. — Reside in South Weymouth. My business is box-manufacturing. Live about an eighth of a mile from Mr. Wilson Tirrell. Am acquainted with the prisoner, Mr. Hersey. His general character, by reputation, as to kindness and humanity, I know nothing against. Presume I saw him every day after the death of Betsy Frances Tirrell. I carried him home, at least to Hingham. His brother, Wm. Hersey, came to me and asked me to go and carry him home. I started Sunday forenoon, the Sunday following the death; started at a quarter past eleven; called to Mr. Tirrell's house, took his clothes, drove to Mr. Wm. Hersey's and took him, and carried him to Hingham, and left him at his father's. Arrived there about twelve o'clock.
