As her case went on, and the prosecuting attorney thundered and roared accusations charging her with the murder of Ali Kemal Fah my Bey, a wealthy Egyptian who was her husband, she just listened and smiled. Her smile won. She was acquit ted. And soon she will be back with her friends in France, ready to forget it all. But her case will not be forgot ten in the British courts for a long time. The loveliness of the accused would alone have made it stand out, but there are other fea tures which further distinguished it. Marie Fahmy was the first typi cal Pariscnne ever arraigned in a British courst who did not under stand a word of P.nglish. Her case was the first ; n which a person accused of a capital crime sat in the dock and did not under stand a word of the terrific ar raignment pronounced by the at torney for the prosecution. Tier case was the first in which a French woman barrister ever ap- 1 peared, her role being to act as in terpreter between the accused and the English lawyers and witnesses. Her case was the first in which Egyptian lawyers ever sat with briefs representing Egyptian inter ested parties. Her case was the first in which the accused was able toi produce as a document for the defense a seal ed letter written many months be fore in which she had* put down minutely her fear of violence and death at the hands of her hus band.
