his guilt Wishing to know whether his client
was really innocent not. M. Nicole' tried for
three honrs on the morning OF the trial to extract
the truth bat only received the most meagre re-
sponses all strongly denying the crime. Being sat
isied of the mans innocence, NJ. Nc0let el0quenty
pleaded in his behalf and with such effect that his
client obviously ran n fair chance of being ac-
quilted when. to his horror. he suddenly heard tho
latter exclaim " Yon have BEEN badaering ne so
