Summary "Final Proof; Or, The Value of Evidence" by Rodrigues Ottolengui is a detective novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around Mr. Barnes, a practiced detective, and Robert Leroy Mitchel, a gentleman determined to outsmart detectives in their own field. Together, they delve into a tantalizing murder mystery involving an unusual case of mistaken identity and the disappearance of a body that was presumed cremated. The opening of the novel introduces the characters and sets the stage for their investigation. Mr. Mitchel is engaged in an intriguing discussion with Mr. Barnes over a newspaper article about a deceased man whose body is found in the East River, only to seemingly match that of a man who had recently been cremated. As they drink coffee and assess the evidence, they identify critical inconsistencies surrounding the identification of the corpse, hinting at deeper deception and potential foul play. This gripping beginning invites readers into a world filled with enigmas, expecting clever deductions and thrilling discoveries as the duo seeks the truth behind the conflicting details of death and identity.
