Addressing his Welbeck [tenants, tho Dull a of Portland thanked them for their kindness during tho continuance of tho miserable and fraudulent Druce case. Such ridiculous and extraordinary cases would never be possible but for Press sensationalism and tho gullibility of tbo public. Welbeck Abbey, the Duke's seat, figured largely in the evidence of Robert Caldwell, Mrs. Hamilton, and Mrs. Robinson, witnesses in the Draco case. The'two ladies are now-'-in gaol, and Caldwell, who got away to, the United States, has escaped extradition through illness. • . • » 1
