African American Murderer CDV. Carte-de-visite titled: "Clifton Haries, The West Auburn Murderer." It shows the young black man seated.

He implicated a white accomplice, Luther Verrill, and two trials ensued, but it was Haries who confessed and faced the hangman's noose. Light soiling and minor loss to one corner of the albumen.
