Bildunterschrift: First member of "criminal class." "Fine body o' men, the per-leece!" Second ditto. "Uncommon fine! - It's lucky for hus as there's sech a bloomin' few on 'em!!!" "I have to observe that the Metropolitan Police have not large reserves doing nothing and ready to meet emergencies; but every man has his duty assigned to him; and I can only strengthen the Whitechapel district by drawing men from duty in other parts of the Metropolis." - Sir Charles Warren's Statement. "There is one Policeman to every seven hundred persons." - Vide Recent Statistics
