Alfred Taylor, who with Oscar Wilde, has been sentenced to two years imprisonment, in giving evidence at the London Central Criminal
Court, said that his father, who was now dead, carried on a large business which was now a limited company. He was educated at Marlborough, and then went
to a private tutor at Preston near Brighton. He afterwards entered the Militia, with the intention of entering the Army, but he gave it up. In 1883 he
came into a sum of £45,000. He lived in town, and had no occupation. There was no truth whatever in the allegations made against him on the part of the
prosecution.
