The Liverpool Courier has a story of a gentleman, formerly a commercial traveller in Australia, who some years ago was lost in the woods and found shelter in a herdsman’s hut, where the herdsman, in the course of a conversation, declared that he was the son of a baronet. The gentleman subsequently returned to England, and when the Tichborne case was being beard, he recognised the claimant as the herdsman of Australia. He afterwards had an interview- with Tichborne, and it is said he will be a witness for him when the case is resumed.
