*In 1865, Mr. Edward Ketchum, a prominent New York City lawyer, stood trial for the murder of fellow lawyer James Watson. The case was one of the most sensational and widely publicized trials of its time.The story goes that on December 22, 1864, James Watson was found shot dead in his office at 140 Nassau Street in New York City. Edward Ketchum was arrested and accused of the murder. Ketchum and Watson had been friends and law partners, but they had a falling out over a financial dispute, leading to tensions between them. During the trial, the prosecution presented evidence that suggested Ketchum had a motive to kill Watson due to the disagreement over money. Witnesses testified about the strained relationship between the two lawyers. The defense, on the other hand, argued that there was not enough concrete evidence to link Ketchum to the crime and suggested that other parties could have been involved. The trial drew immense public attention and media coverage, with newspapers reporting on every detail of the proceedings. It became a highly publicized and polarizing case, capturing the fascination of the public. In the end, the jury found Edward Ketchum not guilty of the murder of James Watson. The trial\'s outcome caused mixed reactions, with some believing in Ketchum\'s innocence and others remaining skeptical.
