| tcrrogatOrs and the party set off brisk
IL up Charles street.
A: the corner of Cambridge street
one of his bondsmen ran across and
affectionately embraced the doctor,
whispering a comforting word in his
ear, and then the party continued their
walk up Cambridge street and through
Court street until the crawford House
was reached.
Here the party entered the ladies'
dining room and ordered dinner. after
which, accompanied by his counsel.
DR.. Mcleod left the hotel ana set off
briskly down Brattle street. The word
had been passed around, however. who
the young man was. and in II short
time the couple We're besieged by a
crowd of several hundred curious per-
sons anxious to get look at the doc
tor" Mcleod and Innes sought refuge
in a SELDOM on City Hall avenue. and
his counsel shortly appeared and en-
gagged a carriage. in which Dr. Mcleod
was driven to the office of his counsel.
The doctor smoked necessarily from
the time of his liberation and appeared
to be greatly annoyed by the notoriety
his appearance provoked when he left
the hotel.
At lurch Dr. Mcleod plainly showed
the effect of his arrest. In "a hours he
had acquired 4 prison pallor. But his
nerve had not left him. and he was as
cool as the proverbial iceberg.
At the offices of Vahey. Innes &
Mansfield, in the Kimball building, Mr..
Innes and one of his partners. James
H. Valley, had a long talk with him.
Subsequently he saw a Herald man, but
refused to discuss the matter for pub
LEGATION.
Il am very glad to see you" he said,
"but l wish it were under pleasanter
circumstances. Mr. Innes has ordered
ME to say nothing to anybody about
the case in which 1 am interested. Nat
urally I shall follow his orders
To the man who had not known him
DIR. Mcleod is something of a surprise
Me is young almost to the point of boy
ishness and not the type of man
usually identified with irregular prac-
tioe. On the contrary. he looks the
nervous student type. the sort of man
one would expect to find working in his
iabOrat tory rather than cutting up the
body of q girl slain as Susan Geary
was.
Il have been very much impressed by
DR.. Mcleod said James H. Valley.
He will come out all right
The necessary surety was furnished
by Edgar l.. Rhodes of the firm of
Rhodes Bros, who lives at So Char
lotte street: John J. Williams, truck
man, who lives at 10 Otis street, East
Cambridge, and David j. Brown, lauiI-
dry supplies, with place Of business
on Harrison avenue and living at Edge
Hill road. Milton.
The bondsmen are all friends of the
doctors brother, Frank and his father
and mother, and are only acquainted
with the physician slightly. They met
at the Office of Charles II. Inness, yes
terday afternoon, and after a brief con-
ference proceeded to the office of Clerk
Manning of the superior court. 1t took
some time for the bondSmen to qualify
the clerk subjectng them to an ex-
haustive examination. and making an
inventory of their property and the
value of the same.
Under the conditions of the bond the
sureties are held liable for the full sum,
severally and individually. In the
event OF the default OF the ue1enuant
the county can thus sue any one of the
three bondsmen for the $4,000.
The government therefore has a
threefold protection TO insure the APP
pearance of the accused.
Learning the terms of the bond Mr..
Rhodes rebelled at first. and for a time
il looked as if he would decline to fur
nish surety at all. He said he was
willing to put up $4,000 in cash. but did
not feel like assuming liability for the
full amount. After Il conference be-
tween DIR. McLeod's brothers and coun-
sci, Mr.. Rhodes consented to join with
Messrs Williams and Brown.
Mr.. Rhodes is prominent in church
work and his property is said to be
something over 100000. MeSsrs.
Brown and Williams also had ample
real estate and personal property.
