The Identification of criminals by
means OF finger prints introduced
in recent years in European police
and penal establishments is paral-
leied BY a similar custom which has
been used in Korea fo- centuries
to identify female slaves. In pa
per recently read before the An
thropological society of London by
Q missionary from Korea it was
stated that in the deeds of sale Of
slaves the hand of the latter was
placed on the sheet of paper on
which the deed was inscribed. and
an outline Of the fingers and thumb
vas traced. while in addition an I'M
preston was made of each finger.
Such impressions, which naturally
furnished complete Identification,
have been found on deeds that date
back 1000 yess.-Harper's Weekly.
