THE LILLYWHITE CASE.
Mr Labouchere's newspaper Truth lias taken up the case of Mr Lilywhitc, who was alleged to be Arthur Blach, the man ‘•wanted”, for the Colchester murder, and this paper avers that it will be an ‘■additional scandal” to what lias been already perpetrated if the Home Secretary does not deal with him in a generous spirit. Another paper says: —“The case of Mr Lily white, is clearly one for compensation. It is stated that the strain of the last eight months has broken down his health, and that he is now suffering keenly. Legally, we believe, Mr Lillywbitc is in the same position as any person, who is the victim of mistaken identity, but it is to bo hoped that the Government will discover some way by whii h they can give him adequate compensation for the pecuniary loss ho has sustained and for the suffering lie has endured.”
