Pity the Poor Garotters!, 1872
Pity the Poor Garotters!, 1872. A ruffian is howling even before the first blow. Watching is John Bull and assorted policemen. This relates to a new wave of garrotting. This was a crime normally carried out by pairs of thieves. One would creep up behind the victim and grab him around the throat. Whilst the victim was thus disabled, the second criminal would empty the victims pockets and relieve him of any valuables, such as watches and canes. From Punch, or the London Charivari, October 26, 1872
