A collection of the most remarkable and interesting trials. Particularly of those persons who have forfeited their lives to the injured laws of their country. In which the most remarkable of the state trials will be included. With the defence and behavior of the criminals, before and after condemnation. Intended not only to point out the crimes of the great, which are at present but little farther known than their own families; but also those of inferior criminals, who only are handed down as examples to posterity.
