Edward Marshall Hall
Sir Edward Marshall Hall, KC, (16 September 1858 – 24 February 1927) was an English barrister who had a formidable reputation as an orator. He successfully defended many people accused of notorious murders and became known as "The Great Defender".
Marshall Hall practised as a barrister in the late Victorian era and in the Edwardian era, when the public took a great interest in the sensational court cases of the day. Big criminal and civil trials were widely reported on by the popular press on a daily basis. As a consequence, he and other successful barristers of the day became very famous. The widespread belief that he was a much better orator than lawyer may explain his failure to achieve elevation to the High Court, which was a source of great disappointment to him.
==Personal life==
Born in Brighton the son of eminent physician Alfred Hall, Marshall Hall was educated at Rugby School and St John's College, Cambridge. Unusually, he left Cambridge after his fourth term to embark on what would now be regarded as a gap year in Paris and Australia, before returning to complete his law degree. In 1882 he married Ethel Moon; the marriage was an unhappy one. The couple were never compatible and were frequently separated, with a legal separation taking place in 1889. The following year, Ethel became pregnant by a lover and died as a result of a botched abortion. This led to a seamy and very public lawsuit in which the lover, the abortionist and several other parties were indicted for Ethel's murder. Marshall Hall's feeling of guilt over his part in Ethel's fate was to have a profound effect on his career: he was to become famous for the impassioned nature of his defences of women maltreated by men. He subsequently married Henriette "Hetty" Kroeger, with whom he had one daughter, Elna.
