	The Tichborne Claimant - LoveToKnow 1911
		TICHBORNE CLAIMANT Roger Charles Tichborne (1829-18J4), whose family name became a household word on account of an attempt made by an impostor in 1868 to personate him and obtain his heritage, was the eldest grandson of Sir Edward Tichborne, the 9th baronet, of a very ancient Hampshire family.
		His first letter to Lady Tichborne was not only ignorant and illiterate, but appealed to circumstances (notably a birth-mark and an incident at Brighton) of which she admitted that she had no recollection.
		It was discovered, too, that Roger Tichborne was never at Melipilla, an assertion to which the claimant, transferring his own adventures in South America to the account of the man whom he impersonated, had committed himself in an affidavit.

	Legal protection against cults using mind control.
		Below is a synopsis of a case which did not itself involve mind control, but which prompted some general observations from Lord Halsbury, an eminent lawyer of a century ago, which do suggest a good basis for such protection under common law.
		Although the burden of proof in a civil case is at the level of a balance of probabilities rather than beyond reasonable doubt, this is still a difficult criterion to fulfil.
		In the case of a mind control cult, mental liberty is restricted by so-called mind control techniques which effectively replace established ideas in a person's mind with new ideas (see section 2).

		The legal proceedings which have grown out of the attempt of an Australian adventurer to gain possession of the valuable Tichborne estates in England have attracted an unusual amount of attention in the U.S. It was really a remarkable trial.
		It has brought upon the stage and exposed to the glaring light of judicial investigation all kinds and conditions of men, not merely from England, but from every quarter of the earth.
		It has raised questions as to the rights of the press and free discussion, as to the rights of the bar and the dignity of the bench, and as to the judicial system itself under which the case was tried.

		The marquise, if it was indeed the marquise, was to spend the rest of her life attempting to recover her name, her rank and her place in society, while her brother, for his part, spent the rest of his life insisting she was an imposter, not even a gentlewoman much less his sister.
		The Tichborne Claimant (as he was known) traveled to France early in 1867 where Roger's mother -- who had placed the advertisements, who had never given up hope that her son would reappear -- was said to have recognized him before her death that same year.
		Thus the case of the Claimant stimulated interest in physical methods of identifying individuals, particularly criminals, and advanced the cause of anthropometrical systems such as that of Phillipe Berthillon, whose final theory—that individuals might be identified by the unique shape of their ears—seems to have led directly to the use of fingerprints.

		...We have in the case of some of the witnesses minute details of the reasons which in their own minds led them to swear to tho fact of identity, and this evidence seems to show that direct testimony as to identity in a case so sharply contested has a very low value...
		...They have argued with a good deal of plausibility from the numerous cases where it has turned out, after a conviction and execution of a supposed murderer, that the crime was in reality committed by some one else, that it was too serious a matter to permit the possibility of such an awful catastrophe...
