GIVEN the circumstances, the tone of the letter to the procurator fiscal was terse, oddly calm and surprisingly formal. It read: 'Dear Sir, Please come immediately. My sister has been murdered whilst I was in Perth - Your obedient servant, William Henderson.' The farmer's missive was sent - by train - from Bridge of Earn to Perth, where the Crown's man John Young learned that Janet Rogers had been killed between the hours of 11am and 7pm on Friday, March 30, 1866. Young immediately dispatched Chief Constable George Gordon and Superintendent Henry MacDonald, a detective in the recently established Criminal Investigation Department, to begin an inquiry into a heinous crime which - 146 years later - remains the UK's oldest cold case.

DURING the first few weeks after Madeleine McCann's disappearance, detective Goncalo Amaral came to symbolise everything that was wrong with the abysmally mishandled Portuguese police investigation into the case.

you state that in 1842 the first regular British detective force was formed by the Metropolitan Police ("On this day", The Herald, August 15). The City of Glasgow Police which was the first organised police force in the UK - formed in 1800 - appointed the first detective officer, Lieutenant Peter McKinlay in 1819 and in 1821 he was given assistance in the forming of the Glasgow Police Criminal Department which in time became the Criminal Investigation Department - thus making it the first force to have an organised Criminal Investigation Department. Anyone interested in discovering more about this can visit the Glasgow Police Museum at 30 Bell Street, Merchant City, Glasgow.
