At the age of seventy-seven, Sir George Sherston Baker, County, Court Judge for Lincolnshire, has died at his residence, Castle Moar House, Lincoln. In the course of a brilliant legal, career he was engaged in a famous case in which two shipwrecked and starving men were charged with cannibalism the victim being a boy who escaped with them. In the ordinary way the men, would have been hanged; but Sir George Sheraton Baker, as the result of a laborious search at the British Museum, hunted up very old case bedring on the crime, and the men were sentenced to six months' imprisonment.
