THE FIRST MURDERER TO BE CAUGHT BY THE USE OF THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH
CRIPPEN
(Hawley Harvey, 1862-1910, American Murderer)
Typed Letter Signed to an unnamed correspondent
reminding him that he "had the pleasure of addressing you previously on the subject of being able to demonstrate to you the means whereby you may find ultimate relief from your deafness and headnoises. I infer that your silence may arise from your natural fear of trying a remedy without its absolute bona-fides being established in your mind and of expending any sum of money, however small it may be, without feeling sure that you will derive therefrom the benefits which you should of course receive. In order, however, to free your mind from any doubts regarding the wonderful merits of my Treatment, and in order to convince you that my promise of help is thoroughly genuine, I am going to make you the following offer, which, as you will readily perceive, virtually amounts to the principle of 'no cure, no pay ...", he then gives a lengthy explanation of his offer to send out the whole treatment for 5s 0d instead of 15s 0d and if it doesn't work he can send back whatever is left but if it works he can pay the balance in instalments , 1 side A4, with original typed envelope, Aural Remedies Coy headed paper, Craven House, Kingsway, 20th December
