On the contrary, he declared, the spelling and some of the wellformed letters indicated that the writer was fairly well educated. ITnhorate care had been taken to disguise tile handwriting, as was shown bv the way the same letters were writton differently. There were several “B’s” in the extract, and they were all formed differently. ft was not possible to tell definitely whether the writer was a man or a woman, but he was inclined to the view that it was a woman. It was difficult, too. to tell what the character of the writer’s own “hand” was. for it was obvious that the writing had lieen disguised for so many years that the original', characters had been almost lost. The local police are still pursuing their inquiries into the matter.
