The Argus - Saturday, April 27, 1895
The trial of Oscar Wilde and his alleged accomplice, the man Taylor, began this morning at the Old Bailey.
The Herald - Monday, April 29, 1895
The trial of Oscar Wilde and his alleged accomplice, Taylor, on charges of abominable conduct was opened at the Old Bailey to-day.
The evidence given was similar in kind to that taken for the defence in the recent trial of the Marquis of Queensberry on the charge of criminal libel preferred against him by Oscar Wilde.
Some further details were given, but these are of a character so abominable that it is quite impossible to reproduce them.
The principal witness examined to-day was Charles Parker, twenty-one years of age.
The witness presents a very boyish appearance, and was hardly audible. He swore distinctly that he had been "procured" by Taylor for Oscar Wilde.
The trial was not concluded.
