to try the other four defendants, w.
IL. Rich, John Allen, Lawrence
Morgan and George Whitley, for

This announcement was received
with apparent surprise by counsel
for the defendants, and Mr.. John d.
Woodland emphatically stated that
he did not regard this action on the
part of the solicitor as fair or right
as a matter of justice or law. Hell

defendants for murder in the first {

could. He had been spending a couple

And are you going tonight, Mr.. De

haven't seen more of you during your

Pray, don't mention it, he re-

Indeed 1t has been all my fault, Miss
De Vercy.'
A few moments later he saw his
mistake, but could find no chance to
atone for 1t, until, as he was about
to leave for the depot, one OF his
friends suggested;
you haven't said Goodbye to
Miss De Vercy, have you?
Here was a chance that was not to
be lost. Turning to the fair damsel.
