Marie Manning (murderer)

Marie Manning (1821–13 November 1849)〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕 was a Swiss domestic servant who was hanged outside Horsemonger Lane Gaol, London, England, on 13 November 1849, after she and her husband were convicted of the murder of her lover, Patrick O'Connor, in the case that became known as the "Bermondsey Horror." It was the first time a husband and wife had been executed together in England since 1700.〔Dickens, Charles. ''Little Dorrit''. Penguin Classics, 2003, Footnote 10, chapter XVII, p. 975.〕
The novelist Charles Dickens attended the execution, and in a letter written to ''The Times'' on the same day wrote, "I believe that a sight so inconceivably awful as the wickedness and levity of the immense crowd collected at that execution this morning could be imagined by no man, and could be presented in no heathen land under the sun."〔 He later based one of his characters—Mademoiselle Hortense, Lady Dedlock's maid in ''Bleak House''—on Manning's life.
==Background==
Manning was born Marie de Roux in Lausanne, Switzerland, and entered domestic service in England. At first maid to Lady Palk of Haldon House, Devon, she entered the service of Lady Blantyre at Stafford House in 1846, and on 27 May 1847 married, at St James's Church, Piccadilly, Frederick George Manning, a publican. His background was a chequered one. He had worked on the railways, but was discharged on suspicion of being involved in several robberies. Marie had previously made the acquaintance of Patrick O'Connor, a (gauger ) in the London Docks, and this friendship was continued after her marriage. O'Connor, besides being a figure on the docks, was also a money lender, and one who charged extraordinary interest. As a result, he was extremely wealthy, and was clever enough to invest his money wisely.
