    No misunderstanding, as I have pointed, I just see no real connection between two vastly different scenarios, still don't.
    No, because you are confusing "identical" with "similar" and then arguing that because they are not identical that means there are no similarities.

      Why would Duffin have even considered preventing the man from seeking medical assistance for the woman he thought was his wife?

        Right, so both men lied didn't they? They were different lies, of course, but both lies. And both men walked off after having told a lie to a police officer. There's the similarity right there.

          He "couldn't possibly know" there was a woman in Bucks Row? Really? Well he hadn't seen it with his own eyes but two men had just reported this to him. What kind of knowledge did he need?

            But Duffin didn't know the woman's name. Her identity was only discovered by tracing the address on the parcel.

            And it doesn't change the fact that the man told Duffin a direct lie does it?

              Well, it comes down to which version you believe.

              You presumably believe Endacott and not Elizabeth Cass and the Warren inquiry witness, Walford. Both of whom claimed she was not "pestering men" when she was arrested.
              No, it doesn't come down to that. What I am saying is that an officer had no right to arrest an unaccompanied woman for walking down the street

              You said: "being an unaccompanied female even in broad daylight in a respectable area, was enough for a policeman to arrest her for prostitution!".

              I'm saying that wasn't enough.

              If you do check, will find that this was the evidence of P.C. Endacott at the Police Court on 29 June 1887:

              "Bowen Endacott, 42 DR.—At 9.30 last night in Regent Street prisoner (meaning Miss Cass) and another got hold of a gent who got away; prisoner caught hold of two more gents; one said in her hearing 'It's very hard I should be stopped; it's the third time I have been stopped in this street.' Have seen her there three times in the last six weeks; from her manner I believe her to be a prostitute; the other woman was with her."

              She was, in other words, seen pestering three men and arrested for such behaviour.

                Let´s not. Let´s use modern science instead of Dickens:

                What is a binary variable? Definition and examples for multiple variable types and their uses. A binary variable is a variable with only two values.


                HAHAHA! You live in the world of Dickens and speak to people on a forum in 2017 as if it was 1841!!!

                    Perhaps we can continue this conversation, my dear boy, once you have learnt to speak English.

                      Just to be clear: that was the allegation, I don't say it was necessarily true.

                        I'm saying he left himself open to criticism.

                        • >>What more information did Mizen need? And what more information could the carmen have given him?<<

                          Off the top of my head, exactly where the body was, what did they see, why a policeman needed him, where were they going? etc etc

                          In other words, the basics a policeman would be expected to ask.

                            If I am, then I don't know I am, because that is definitely not what my brain is telling me.

                            I see two different scenarios that you appear to be trying to draw tenuous links to.

                              Because a "husband" should be with his wife, where he could be of practical use by offering comfort if she regained consciousness and by answering necessary questions.

                              Whereas, anybody could fetch medical help. Duffin, of course, should have known exactly where he nearest medical help was.

                                I don't believe Xmere lied and I don't believe the police believed Xmere lied.

                                With regards to "top hat" we have no information to suggest that he was telling the truth.

                                So, no similarity, for me, there.
