Branch Outlines
The Defense s Side.

Mr. Branch outlined the defense He
said:
I'VE expect to show. by disconnected
evidence, our theory OF the defense
Our contentious are:
That the contentious Of the state
are not well founded. We expect to
prove certain things to show that the
states case Is rotten, or almost rotten.
That their theory that Grace was shot
at night or early morning is not true.
by that we will show that the very
foundation Of the states case is I'm
sound. We are going to show that in
several different ways. The idea that
Grace lay there all the morning, doped
and shot, Is ridiculous That the defend
ant was around the house, keeping
people away from him, is absolutely
absurd"

Such fierce surges Of joy throbbed
through him as he had not thought
the human frame could sustain. This
woman loved him, in some strange
way he had gained her affection. 1t
was impossible, yet she had said so!
He had been a blind fool. He could
see that now. She stood before him
and smiled up at him, looking at him
through eyes misted with tears, with
lips parted, with color coming and 60
ing In her cheek and with her bosom
rising and falling. She loved him, he
had but to step nearer to her to take
her in his arms. There was a trust,
devotion, surrender, everything, in her
attitude, and between them like that
great gulf which lay between the rich
man and the beggar, that separated
heaven and hell, was that he could
not cross.
Il never dreamed, l never hoped
OH" he exclaimed as II he got his
death wound, "this cannot be borne"
He turned away but in two swift
steps she caught him.
Where do you go?"
"Out, out into the night"
"You cannot go now, 1t is dark;
bark to the storm, you would miss
your footing you would fall, you would
freeze, you would die"
What matters that?"
Il cannot have it"
"It would be better So"
He strove again to wrench himself
away, but she would. not be denied.
She chung to him tenaciously.
II will not let you go unless you
give me your word Of honor that you
will not leave the plateau, and that
you will come back to me-"
II tell you that the quicker and
more surely | go out Of life, the hap
pier and better 1t will be for you"
"And l tell you" said the woman
r~esolutely, that you can new go out
of my life again, living or dead" She
released him with one hand and laid
it upon her heart. you are here"

with one hand yet detained him with

the situation between them. "Not

tiers. Who was he? Was he yet
alive? Had he any part to play in
this strange tragedy aside from that
he had already assayed?
Sometimes an answer to a secret
query is made openly. At this juno
ture Newbold came back. He
stopped before her unsteadily. his face
now marked not only by the fierce
ness of the storm outside, but by
the f1ercer grapple of the storm in
his heart.

"And why did you wear 1T"
Because l took it from her dead
heart. Some day l shall find out who
the man is and when 1 shall l know
there will be nothing to her discredit

Enid Maitland nodded her head.
She closed the locket, laid 1t on the
table and pushed 1t away from her.
So this was the man the woman had
loved, who had begged her to go
away with him, this handsome Arm
strong who had come within an ace
of winning her own affection, to
whom she was in some measure
pledged!

him carefully and looking again in
a strange commixture of pride, re-

handsome face which gave no evil

she had displayed.
