Or. chiIds's Statement

OF all the people present in court,
Clinton Mannersley was most af-
fected by Phillipa's entrance. But
while the rest, from magistrates to
pitmen, were one and all full of pity
and solicitude for the bereaved girl,
who had always been a great
favotite in the village, Clinton'7
concern was of a different nature.
He was observant and keen eyed,
and something in Mark Quinton's
attitude toward Phillipa, as he led
her forward, showed him that the
manager was in love with her. And
from that moment half his interest
and concern in his own critical
position left him; he was facing the
fact that he had a rival who might
be dangerous.
There was a dead silence as Phil
lipa stepped into the box and raised
her veil. A murmur of sympathy
arose among the pitmen as they saw
her usually smiling and rosy face
was pale and drawn. Rowland
Parke dropped the sharp, self-as
amined the other witnesses, and adj
dressed her in soft tones.
II am deeply regretful. Miss Man
hershey, to be obliged to bring you
here, but it has been unavoidable,
and I will not detain you any longer
than / can help. Will you kindly
look at this key and tell me IL 1t is
yours"
ut is mine," replied Phillipa.
This key was found in them
Sir Clinton's possession last night.
Can you tell us how it came into his
possession"
yes, gave it to him."
when was that?"
1.-THE night before last"
MAY I ask for what purpose?"
Il gave him the key in order that
he might gain access to my fathers
study last night"
Then + take it that you had an
interview with your cousin-night
before last?"
"Yes."
Rowland Parke hesitated for a mo-
ment, as If he were not quite as
sured of his next question, and in
the silence Clinton called across the
court to his cousin:
Tell them everything. Phillipa-
there's no need to keep anything
back now!"
Phillipa looked at Parke. THAT is
"A1e oAiOuAu WHO'LL ~ W., DIG cdlu
quietly. There is really nothing to
conceal, and perhaps
She paused and hesitated. STAN
ford jumped to his feet.
II am sure that If Miss Manners
ley is good enough to offer any evil
dence which she feels she would
like to offer. your worships and my
friend will gladly hear it," he said
In his suavest tones. n
"Certainly-certainl murmured
the chairman
Il should like to say what know"
said Phillipa as Stanford sat down
again. because IL hope it will be
found In my cousins favor. It is
only a few days ago that I heard
that my cousin had-had made his
escape, and that he was coming to
Mannersley. I was made aware of
his arrival, and I consented to meet
him the night before last at the
hermit's CELL"

"Sir Robert carried one, sir; Miss
Phillipa carried the other"
Can you say positively which of
the two keys this is?"
Yes. sir. 1t is Miss Phillipa's. My
masters key was-was on his body"
answered the old butler.
Rowland Parke turned to the
bench. s
II am as anxious as any man can
be to keep Miss Mannersley's name
out of the case, your worships," he
said. but I shall be obliged to call
her at a later stage to give evidence
as regards the question Of this key.
We must know how 1t came into the
prisoners possession, and
Clinton Mannersley, whose apathy
had by this time left him, started UP
from his seat in the dock.
II can tell you that now" he
exclaimed. There's no need TO drag
my cousin into this beastly place
and rotten business"
But Stanford had turned round
and whispered n word, and the
prisoner nodded his head and
reseated himself.

Parsse, there are one or two mat
ters which / wish to elicit from the
