Jenkins the murderer.

[Cast taken of head, to be exhibited. Skeleton to be preservered] …

A faithful likeness of Jenkins, the murderer, in lithograph, is to be seen in the shop window of Mr. McGarvie, the bookseller. The drawing is from the pencil of Mr. Rodius, and shows the profile and full face of this notorious character. It was sketched during the time he was in the dock of the Surpreme Court, on his trial for the murder of Dr.Wardell.
