It is stated for the prosecution that prisoner and her husband resided at the house of a Mr Stevenson at York, as a man and wife for some time after the first marriage, and during the stay Mr Stevenson, at the woman's request, tattooed a sailor and a " Gibson girl " on her arms. During the testimony as to the tattooing the prisoner interposed, and stated that her tattoo marks had -been on her arms eight years. " I have got tattoo marks on both arms, but not, of a soldier or a Qibson girl," she declared. Prisoner fainted, and afterwards denied the marriage at the registry office. The Judge directed her to be conducted to the cell, and after she had been examined there by a wardress it turned out that her only tattoo marks were those of the rose, shamrock, and the thistle. The jury found the prisoner not guilty, and she was acquitted, amid loud applause. Prisoner again fainted.
