Pearls worth flO0,000 we're found lying
in n gutter in ST Puu,'s road, Highbury, in
North London. The finder was Augustus
Horne, "a working man employed in II piano
forte factory. He picked them MP on the.
way to work at eight O'Clock in the morning.
A reward Of 100000 wa. offered FOR the re-
covery of the necklace last July.
It belonged to MIR. Max Mayer, of Halton~

picked up the pearls he thought they were
marbles" and tried to sell them in Lublic-
houses before taking them toa police station
At one public house q barman refused to
buy one of the pearls for three-pence f.; at an
other a pearl worth 60, 600 was brown away
by a nun who thought it was of no value.
Horne then showed the pearls to a police in
spector, who told him to "tnke them home
aud play with them" Finally he went TO Il
police %statioa, where they were identified.
Mr.. Max Mayer, the owner, was commune
Gated with, and he ~joyfully recognised tEens
rs his pearls,
According to Homes own statem.ent, when
he opened the matchbox containing the
pearls a number dropped ont, but these he
picked up. The number of pearls restoredt

When the two purchased BY Mr.. Spanier
are taken into consideration four are still
missing-tw0 from the necklace and two
drop pearls. One of these four can be nc.
counted for According to Horne and sew
eral of his friends he was in possession Of
one pearl, the size OF a pea, il addition to-
those he handed over to the police, but It
was lost.
AS to the other three pearls tbat are miss-

finding of the pearls by Horne, they were
also lost during the time the finder was un-
aware of their value.
A number of detectives were on Wednes-
day engaged in n search for these pearls,
