IDENTIFICATION OF PRISONERS. AYRSHIRE. MURDER, £ 10 0 REWARD 1.- The Editor desires to call attention to the fact that all photographs of prisoners in custody, trans- mitted to the Convict Branch of the Metropoli- tan Police Office, for purposes of identification, are seen by the police or warders who visit all prisoners under remand, in the Metropolitan Police District three times a week. This system, esta- blished in 1879, has been the means of ascertaining the previous convictions of 7000 prisoners, and affords great facilities to Chief Officers of Police, and the Governors - of Her Majesty's Prisons. Such photographs are also - compared with the albums in the Convict Office con- taining the portraits of all Convicts liberated in the Kingdom, which are further open to the personal • examination of any police officer or warder. IDENTIFICATION OF BODIES. UNCLAIMED The attention of the Editor has been directed to the want of any system existing for the publication of descriptions of dead bodies coming into the hands of Police, and which are buried without having been iden- tified. It having been suggested that the particulars should be inserted in the POLICE GAZETTE, the Editor will be glad to print any information which it may* be • considered desirable to publish. Whereas about 10.30 p. m. on the 11th of March, 1884, Mr. ROBERT RANKIN, who resided alone in Volga Bank Cottage, Moscow, Galston, near Kilmarnock, was found murdered in his dwelling by some person or per- sons unknown.

Pollock Steven- son, Esq,, Procurator- Eiscal of Ayrshire, to any person ( other than a person belonging to a Police Eorce in the United Kingdom) who shall give such information as shall lead to the discovery of the murderer or murderers ; and the Secretary of State will advise the grant of Her Majesty's gracious o to any accomplice, not being the person who actually committed the murder, who shall give evidence as shall lead to a like result.
