By the court martial. A dramatic
account of Cottin's trial a0os pub
lshed IN "Le Figaro" 1t runs, In
part:
"And you, Coffin, what have you to say
for yourself?"
Nothing, sir; nothing"
He answers like an apprentice quizzed by
an angry master. In fact as he stands
there on one leg, as it were, downcast,
wrnging his hands as if fdgeting with an
invisible cap, he resembles nothing more
than an apprentice who has a scolding com
ing to him.
Only little while ago he entered the box
with a sauntering step, like one leaving the
workshop for the day But now he has sat
down, with his head dropping forward. He
knows he's guilty and there is no way Of
escaping the master. But every now and
then a fierce glance betrays that he is
watching the proceedings from behind his
eyelashes.
He is just twenty-thrce years Of age.
This Is his birthday, and his attorney tries
to exploit the coincidence. Twenty-three
years, and he looks like a big child who
has grown too fast. Long and lean-ribbed,
he does not know what to DO with his hands
except occasionally to stroke his blond hair,
all too long, with an awkward gesture that
somehow reminds Of the slum. His irregu-
lar, oval face shows protrudng cheekboncs,
which emphasize the hollowness Of his
cheeks. The forehead is very high and sud-
denly rcceding. His eyes betray the natural
slyness of his character, which he tries to
conceal with his demeanor. But the mouth
is puerile. 1t stays half opened, a credu-
lous mouth, a mouth that listens. The chin
Is that of an infant.
He wanted to kill. Why? He gives two
explanations Of his act. The first he draws
from the doctrines he processes, or pre-
tends to profess. He is terribly vain. He
wanted to kill in order ITO satisfy his
ideal" He reads a declaration concocted
from all the poorest commonplaces of radi-
cal literature-he calls it CHS programmes"
He glores in the role Of the outlaw-a dan
gerous gesture, which may cost him the
