Boston: Daily Mail Report-Full and Complete [1846]. Not in McDade: A Skilled Boston Orator's Courtroom Triumph [Trial]. Tirrell, Albert J., Defendant. The Trial of Albert J.

As McDade remarks, "The murder of a harlot seems to lend a special interest to a case which is measurable by the many publications which ensue." He considers the Tirrell case "one of the triumphs of Rufus Choate, who convinced the jury that his client did not cut the throat of Mrs. Bickford, or, if he did, he did it in his sleep. The defense of somnambulism by Choate might well join that other classic of defense put forth by Delphin Michael Delmas, who as counsel for Harry K. Thaw pleaded 'dementia Americana.'" Choate, a Massachusetts lawyer, orator and politician, is considered one of 19th-century America's greatest lawyers for his powers of persuasion and innovation in the courtroom. The Tirrell case was one of several landmarks he achieved in private practice: it was the first successful somnambulism defense in an American murder trial.
