Montrose Captain Led Capture of Crippen and Miss Le Neve
Captain Kendall of the Montrose claims sole credit for the arrest of Dr. Crippen and Miss Le Neve aboard the vessel after their journey to Father Point. Inspector Dew acted only on Kendall’s orders while disguised as a pilot, with Kendall privately sharing details of his suspicions and surveillance aboard the Montrose. The captain, long reluctant to speak, describes telegraphing authorities and coordinating with Mr. Piers in Liverpool as key steps in the capture.
