Mrs. Ann Radford, a puny looking woman, was charged with threatening the
life of her husband. Mr. William Radford, a stout robust man, complained of
her general bad conduct, always getting drunk and beating him. She would
frequently beat him, pull his hair and had knocked him about the face. He
had let her do it for as long as she liked, but he could stand it no longer.
She had once given him stuff he believed to be poison and also gone to bed
with a razor under her hand.
In defence she said she had been treated in the same way.
They were ordered to find sureties to keep the peace.
