According to the best information

how Sir William Norwood, COM

given to the press by Sir William
Wyndham Childs, chief of the
criminal investigation department.
The day before the commission
er was poisoned he received a let
ter from a relative saying a box of
chocolates was being sent him for
a birthday present. The next day
the box of candies arrived and Sir
William thinking they were the
present, ate some of them. These
were poisoned candies. Shortly af-
terward the present arrived. but the
damage already was done.
The arrival of the two boxes It

lead to an arrest. Meanwhile the
poisoned Scotland Yard head is out
of danger and reported as doing
nicely.
