always damages his counsels reputa-
ton whether he deserves it or not.
AS my brief put it, the case fined
down to this:
two men got into an empty third
class smoking compartment at Addison
road. One of them, Guide, was drain
contractor; the other, Walker, was a
foreman in Guides employ. The train
took them past the Shepard's Bush and
Grove Road Hammersmith stations
without anything being reported, but
at Shaftesbury road Walker was found
on the floor stone dead, with wound
In the skull, and on the seat of the
carriage was a small miners pickax
with one Of it's points smeared with
blood.
ut was proved that Guide had been
seen to leave the Shaftesbury road sta
ton. He was disheveled and agitated
at the time, and this made the ticket
collector notice him specially among
the crowd of outgoing passengers. Aft
er it was found out who he was in
quiries were made at his home His
wife stated that she had not seen him
since Monday, the morning Of Walkers
death. She also let out that Walker
had been causing him some annoyance
of late, but she did not know about
what. Subsequently-on the Friday,
four days later-Guide was arrested in
the West India dock. He was trying
to obtain employment as coal trimmer
on an Australian steamer, obviously
to escape from the country. On being
charged he surrendered quietly, re-
marking that he supposed it was all up
with him.
"That was the gist Of my case, and
the solicitor suggested that / should
enter plea of insanity.
"Now, when I'd conned the evidence
over-additional evidence to what I've
told you, but all tending to the same
end-I came to the conclusion that
Guide was as sane as any of us are
and that as defense insanity wouldn't

the heels of his shoes off square. About

Il think my fingers trembled when l
turned to the bass again.
Yes, there, opposite to where the
point of the MARINE spike had been
lying-it was tilted over the ball Of
spun yarn-was a closed up cash in
the side of the bass. The spike had
passed through there and then been
withdrawn. Round the cash was a
dim discoloration, which l knew to be
dried human blood.
I'm my minds eye saw the whole
CHASTITY accident clearly enough now.
The two men had been standing up,
struggling. Guide had gone down under
a blow, Knocked senseless, and Walker
had stumbled over him. Pitching for
ward, face downward, on to the seat
before he could recover, his head had
dashed violently against the carpenters
bass. The sharp marline spike inside,
with it's heel resting against the solid
wall of the carriage, had entered the
top of his skull like a bayonet. No
human hand had been raised against
him, and yet he had been killed on the
instant without struggle.
"Then he had rolled off on the floor,
and the blood from his wound had
lying beneath him.
