Hi,

Thank you for your reply and for taking the time to look for me.

I know its there as I did a search and its there they did show me a snippet of the case I am looking for.

Pretty sad really, its about someone I have traced from Scotland, his wife passes away about a year after they migrated with seven children.It appears he was arrested in September 1897 and then he hanged himself in the cell.

This is the article.And definatley on geneology Bank.
His name is John Forrest

Hanged to His Cell Door....

Date: September 17, 1897
Location: Massachusetts
Paper: Boston Journal
Article type: News Article

Thank You
Alison
