A STRANGE, TRUE STORY.

The Langworthy Marriage.

APPENDIX,

A TjETTEU FKO.M MESSRS BIUCIIAM.

The following communication has been re ceived from Messrs Bircham and Co :—

To the. Editor of (he " Pull Mall Gazette."

Sir, —Now that you have completed your version of the Langworthy case, we think it due to the public and to ourselves to say that the story as it appears in the " Pall Mall Gazette " is for the most part at vari ance with, the statements made to us by Mr Langworthy, and which have been con firmed in several essential particulars by trie independent testimony .of persona whose veracity there is no reason to doubt. "We are placed at a great disadvantage in the controversy, not only by reason ot' Mr ; Lang-worthy's residence in a remote part of the Argrentine Republic, but because our professional duty prevents us from publish ing the information and papers on which wo Shave been hitherto acting, and which we ■consider justify the course which we, and Mr Langworthy's relatives in this country, have taken. It is of course possible that we may be mistaken in our opinion of the case ; but the highly-coloured and exaggerated pictures you "have presented, obviously drawn by the lady (who, as an authoress, has had experience as a writer of iiction), serve only to confirm the view we have taken. We trust that, notwithstanding the pre judice which your extremely bitter and un precedented articles have raised against Mr Langworthy and his friends, the public ■w ill defer their iinal judgment at least until he has had the opportunity of giving his reply to the charges contained in your ar ticles. As yet, we believe, he is ignorant of their existence. We have, therefore, felt it right, in his absence from this country, to make a protest against his being ad judged guilty upon ex pewte statements.— We are, sir, your obedient servants, Bircham and Co. 46, Parliament-street, Westminster, S. W., May 12th. Now that we have completed our version of the Langworthy case, it is but natural the Messrs Bircham should feel it due to the public and to themselves that they should say something, if only_ to explain certain matters connected with certain affidavits and applications for delay which led Dr. Cameron to suggest in Parliament a public prosecution. Messrs Bircham, there fore, have written us the above letter,which explains nothing and leaves the whole of the facts concerning these affidavits ab solutely untouched. As Messrs Bircham say nothing on this matter, the inference is unavoidable that they have nothing to say. Why, then, do they write this letter ? Not, it ■would seem, to vindicate themselves, not to defend the affidavit of Mr Harrington Charles James Groves, or the affidavits of Mr To-the-Best-of-my-Information-and Be lief Danby, or the statement of The clerk who told the Registrar that Mr Langworthy was so far oft in South America that Messrs Bircham could not obtain his instructions at the very time that Mr Langworthy was in London, and had given his instructions to Mr Harrington Charles James Groves. Upon none of these points have they so much to say as a passing word. Neither have they one word to say in ex planation of the conduct of their client, Mrs Langworthy, sen., who is not thousands of mile's away, who is in close and constant communication with them, and whose reply as to her share in the painful business worfld have been only less welcome than an ex planation by Messrs Bircham as to the part they have played in the matter. Their letter is entirely devoted to a plea in suspense of judgment on be half of the man whom they still re gard as their client. They protest, they say, against his being adjudged guilty upon ex parle statements. So do we. When a Queen's counsel of the standing of Mr Finlay, Q.C., M.P., instructed by his professional clients, Messrs Bircham, twice over in the course of a single sitting tells the Court that he cannot defend the conduct of Mr Langworthy, it requires some degree of moral hardihood to speak about Mr Langworthy " being adjudged guilty upon ex parte statements.' We have not adjudged him guilty. His conduct has been defended " to the best of their information and belief" by Messrs Bircham and Co. before Sir James Hannen, Air Justice Butt.and Lords Justices Cotton, Bowen, Fry, and Lindley, and the judi cial condemnation of his conduct has been unanimous. But we will press the case nearer home. We have convicted Mr Edward Martin Langworthy of deliberate lying, not on any ex parte statements, but upon the sworn testimony of a certain Har rington Charles James Groves, member of the firm of Messrs Bircham and Co., who on June 23,1884, made oath to tl 0 following effect:--" I, Harrington Charles James Groves, of the firm of Messrs Bircham and C 0.," saw Mr Langworthy in March—at the very time, by the by, when a cierk in the employ of Messrs Bircham was informing . the Registrar that Mr Langworthy was in South America - and received his instruc tions-although the Registrar was prayed by the said clerk to grant delay because it was impossible to obtain his instructions) And then Mr Harrington Charles James Groves went on to say :— . During my interviews with the said respondent on the occasions referred to, he gave me a detailed history of his connec tion with the^ petitioner, and in answer to my inquiry whether any marriage had ever been solemnised between him and the petitioner the respondent denied in the most distinct and emphatic manner th-tt any marriage was ever solemnised between him and the petitioner, or that any form or ceremony ot marriage, or pretended jorm or ceremony oj marriage, icas at any^ time, per formed or gone, through between him and the petitioner. Now, on the strength of the oath of Mr Groves, of the firm of Messrs Bircham and Co., we adjudged Mr Edward Martin J/ineworthy to be a liar, for, as Messrs Bircham admit without reserve, a form or ceremony, or pretended form or ceremony, did take place, and was admitted in Court by Sir Charles Russell on their instructions to have taken place. Mr Groves's oath in the affidavit presented to enable Mr Lang worthy to defeat his wife's claim for alimony may be an ex parte statement, but it Is ex parte on Mr Langworthy's own side, and can only be discredited by discrediting the accuracy of Messrs Bircham's partner, Mr Harriagton Charles James Groves. But, say Messrs Bircham, the story as we published it is quite at variance with the statements made by Mr Langworthy. We can well believe it. We are glad to hear it. That is in itself a presumption in favour of our story. But, considering that Messrs Bircham and Co. have the clearest and most unmistakable evidence that their client, Edward Martin Langworthy, lied to them on a matter of vital importance, lied, as Mr Harrington Charles James Groves swears, in the most distinct and emphatic manner, the calm as sumption that " statements made to us by Mr Langworthy " are worth the paper they are printed on is an affront to human' intelligence. A respectable firm like Messrs Bircham may, of course, if they please, continue to act for a client who has deceived them on a vital point, and made them his innocent instruments in prac tising a fraud upon the courts ; but it is really too much, after all this is set forth in the I Wit of day, and every solicitor in London is familiar with i( the lie in the

affidavit," for Messrs Bircham to ask for suspension of judgment because gur narra tive is not confirmed by the statements of a convicted liar.

In several essential particulars they say Mr Langworthy's statements are confirmed by the independent testimony of persons whose veracity there is no reason to doubt. What trilling this is ! No wonder Messrs Bircham's client lost his cause in court after court, if this is a fair sample of their skill as advocates. Against the clear and precise statements on all points vital to the issue being tried, proved in court on the oath of witnesses under cross-examination, they set the unknown statement of anony mous individuals not on oath, not under cross-examination, and even then they do not venture to specify a single particular in which they have this rebutting testimony. If they had it, why did they nob produce it in Court ?

Messrs Bircham say " we are placed at a treat disadvantage in thia controversy. Ir Langworthy is far away, and profes sional duty prevents us publishing the information in our possession. But Messrs Bircham can communicate by telegraph with their client in South America. A single word from the Argentine would rcliove them from the disadvantage of which they complain, which prevents them from publishing the infor mation and papers on which they have been acting. Have they asked for that permission ? Nay, the case is stronger than this. They knew the article was to appear as far back as February 25. They have had ample time and opportunity to communicate by letter with their client in South America and to receive his instructions in reply. If they have not yet advised him of the existence of the articles then we can only say that the ways of the Messrs Bivcham when their client.? interests are at stake are remarkable indeed. It is idle for them to hide their lack >.>{ waUer by such ex cuses. What everyone will say is that if Messrs Birchamhad anything to cay fortheir ' client more than they have already said in ; court, they would have said it long ago. If they say nothing now, it cannot be be cause they have not had time to communi cate with their client, but because they have nothing to say. But Messrs Bircham jind Co. afford the public with the best gauge of their judgment by the remark' that the statement published in our columns con firms their view that they and Mr Lang worthy'n relatives were justified in the course they have taixn. This deprives this respec table firm of solicitors of the one explanation which had hitherto been offered. Messrs Bircham, it has been said, could never have known the other side. They never could have known, it has been alleged in their be half, to what straits they were driving the victim of their client's selfish passion, and that they had not the least idea of the real character of their client. That defenco is now destroyed. For Messrs Bircham, alone probably among men, surveying the grim and ghastly story of the sufferings which the conduct of the case inflicted upon Mrs Langworthy, declare that they have now seen everything that they have done, and behold it is very good ! Such complacent contemplation of a series of facts which, when set forth, not by a practised novelist, but by a humdrum journalist, working up his case from briefs and law reports, have made London ring with indignation and horror, is a phenomenon indeed. Messrs Bircham, with all the facts before them, " justify the course which they have taken." Nothing that we can say can add to the effect on the public mind of that brief statement. THE AXONJTMOUS POSTCARDS. It has been brought to our knowledge that some evil-disposed persons have been sending anonymous postcards to the subscribers to the Langworthy Defence •Fund, making statements which are !false and libellous, and to such a degree as to justify the institution of im mediate proceedings against the cowardly perpetrators of this latest outrage, who, as is natural to their kind, have not the cour age to sign the slanders which they cir culate. Any subscribers receiving such postcards are requested to forward them at once to the officer of this journal, in order that some clue may be discovered whereby the writer may be run to earth with a view to his or her prosecution for criminal libel.

TROM THE " DAILY CHRONICLE."

Dr. Cameron has drawn the attention of the 'Home Secretary to a scandal which is just now creating much interest in legal circles. That is the reckless manner in which lawyers' clerks are allowed to go be fore judges and put in lying affidavits for the purpose of protracting litigation to the detriment of poor suitoi'B. Dr. Cameron asked if the Home Secretary had noticed the number of instances in which in the celebrated caseof Langworthy v Langworthy " statements apparently obs'iously and wilfully false had been made in affi davits." Would the Home Secretary, asked Dr. Cameron, instruct the Public Prosecutor to inquire into the truth of this business, and if need be prosecute those who may be guilty for perjury. Mr Stuarfc- Wortley, in reply, said that the Home Secretary had not informed himself about a scandal which for weeka has been the common talk of the legal profession. He added that those concerned could move the Public Prosecutor if they chose. We believe England is the only civilised country in the world where in face of such notorious exposures as those which have recently been made in connection with the Langworthy case, a Public Prosecutor would have to he " moved" from the outside to make 3 iquiry.
