I, known now as Elmer Ludgrove, and practising as a herbalist in Praed Street, am in reality Ernest Morlandson, late a Doctor of Medicine, found guilty in the year 1906 of murdering Lord Whatley by the administration of an overdose of morphia. This statement can be verified by an examination of my fingerprints, and by a comparison of certain marks upon my body with

Dr.

Morlandson’s record, in the possession of the prison authorities.
