The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1913-11-13
IS RECORD CRIMINAL CASE
Telegraph Was Employed In England
for First Time In Catching
Murderer.

England has the record of the
first case of a criminal being brought
to justice by means of the electric
telegraph. This event took place a
few months after the extension of
the system to Slough in 1874.
A murder had been committed at
Salt Hill and upon hearing of the
occurrence the vicar of Upton-cum-
Chalvey was informed that the last
person seen to leave the house was
a man wearing the dress of Quaker.
The vicar at once conceived the
idea that the suspected person had
probably fled to London, and acting
upon this suspicion, fastened to
Sloug station, where man answer
ing to the description was seen by
the vicar to pass through the book
ing Office.
Communicating his suspicious to
the station superintendent, the lat
ter caused the following Geographic
message to be transmitted: GA muir
der has been committed at Salt Hill
and the suspected murderer was seen
to take frst-clas ticket for London
by the train which left Slough at
III. Ann. p. m. He is in the garb
of a Quaker, with a brown great
coat which reaches nearly down to
his feet; he is in the last compart-
ment of the second frst-class car
riage."
The result of this message was the
apprehension Of the criminal, by
name Tawell, who subsequently suf-
fered the extreme penalty of the law.

readiness the girl had bent to his

almost frightened tone in which Mrs.
Gaynor had mentally seized and
shaken the PROSTATE servant, break
ing the spell his voice and presence
were closing about her predisposed
personality. She knew then-she re-

said aloud. He thrust back the tum-

Again he was forced to see and to
fit another piece into the puzzle.

psychical research in Vienna. So

him. That was the time when Mrs.
Wimbledon had studied with Beril-

Eyes, sir, certainly, sir. I came
up with the Ice-water trays, sir,
about nine, as 1t might be, and Mrs.
GaynOr's young woman, Adele, sir,
was just leaving Mrs. Lawdon'a
room. She crossed ahead of me.

right on as if wasn't there. What's

The man shook his head emphat1-

mo? Well, tell me and your en-
plOyer here, what did you mean by
going to her and telling her you'd
seen her, and that if she'd divide
you'd keep quiet?"
Evelyn, who knew nothing of

with an exclamation Of surprise.

Then I came straight to you, sir. !"
"Wendham, do you hear that?"
Evelyn exclaimed.
IT was there when it happened
or rather, when she ran to Mrs.
Gaynor with the story. She was, as
John says, up in the air.
What did Nellie say?" inquired
Evelyn.

Gaynor isn't strong, as I've told you.

on her. was afraid that this final
complication would prove the last
straw, but she pulled herself up like
thoroughbred, told Adele that
she had absolute confidence in her,
and then ordered her back to remain
under Mrs. Lawdon's supervision.
What do you make of it," asked
Evelyn. Wendham hesitated, and
his host read his wishes.

you Good night"
The servant bowed and retired.

question; but this I do believe,
