Editing Case File: Dr. Harvey Burdell (section)

=== Sarah McManaman ===
Sarah McManaman was next examined: I have nothing to do with it, only Mr. Marvin married them; I am living with Mr. Marvin, at No. 723 Greenwich street; [The witness was here taken by the Coroner to see the corpse; on her return she resumed] I saw two people married on Oct 28, at Mr. Marvin's house; it was in the evening; I cannot positively swear the corpse I have seen is that of the man's, it is so disfigured; [a daguerreotype was shown her] I think that is like the man I saw married; only he had larger whiskers; I should not know the lady at all; the lady said "Don't have this marriage known".  [Mrs. Cunningham was here sent for, and confronted with the witness. She immediately recognied her as the woman who was married; she also recognized her daughter Augusta as the witness who accompanied her] I was in the back parlor when the marriage took place; the folding-doors were open; I am always there when anybody gets married; Mrs. Marvin gives us that privilege.
