He reached into her pocketesses, not realising that her dirty-sticky tissue was in there. It was so sticky in there that he could not pull his hand free.

Ahhhh... creative answers, to be sure. The "right" answer is that she had sewn fishhooks into her pocket, and when she caught a pickpocket, promptly walked over to the police station and turned him in.

A man by the name of Samuel Mulford was the inspiration for this, according to history cited here:


Quote:
And here is where we come to the one story about Samuel Mulford which made the history books. It is said that while he stood outside the gates of the King's palace, unable to get in, his pockets were picked. That night he sewed fishhooks in his pockets, and the next day again took his place outside the palace. Again, someone tried to pick his pockets, but found a surprise waiting for him. Mulford immediately turned the thief over to the police, and the incident received so much publicity that King George I granted Mulford an audience. Eventually, the whale oil tax was repealed.
Thanks for playing [img]smile.gif[/img]
