Aram

Aram, Eugene, an English criminal of the eighteenth century, to whose career Thomas Hood's ballad and Bulwer Lytton's novel have lent more romantic interest than the facts would warrant. Aram was born in 1704. He educated himself to such a point as to be able to act as an usher in various schools. While acting in this capacity at King's Lynn he was arrested, in 1753, for the murder at Knaresborough, fourteen years previously, of one Clark. Aram was convicted in spite of his clever defence. He was executed at York, 1759.
