Containing The several Incidents that happened from the Time she received the poisonous Powder from her Lover, the Hon.

With Copies of the Affidavits taken before the Mayor and Coroner, &c. Together With the Copy of a Letter she had wrote to Mr. C-n, which was intercepted by Mr. Littleton a few Days before Mr. Blandy's Death, which was read to him; and her Confession before the Magistrate.

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
