The trial of Katharine Nairn and Patrick Ogilvie was one of the most salacious and scandalous court cases to grip eighteenth-century Scotland. Yet it has largely been forgotten by history.

The authorities suspected arsenic poisoning.
Soon afterwards the pair were arrested, and they faced the High Court in Edinburgh on trial for their lives.
