CHAPTER V.

SIR SEYMOUR.
~ APER in hand, edged my way
to a vacant front seat on top
of my bus.
i To Judge by the amount of
space allotted to me on the
first page it was evident at a glance
that I was the principal sensation OF
the hour.
There was three-quarter column
description of the scene in court, with
photographs of myself and Sir Charles
Barrett, followed by verbatim re-
port of old Earles summing up, which
occupied the best part of one of the
center sheets.
It was, without question, master
piece Of detached reasoning, but hav-
ing been already acquainted with his
lordship's views, I felt no particular
temptation to repeat the experience.
I turned instead to the laSt-minute
bulletins, where was blazoned the fol-
lowing announcement:

sat staring at it as the bus rolled
along up Fleet street. 1t was queer
to think of all that those few words
meant to me-of the shattering bomb
shell which fate, for some inscrutable
reason, had seen fit to drop into my
life.
Only six weeks ago the world had
seemed singularly agreeable place.
I had been in the best of health and
enjoying existence Wholeheartedly. My
work had already begun to attract an
encouraging amount of attention,
commissions were coming in with in
creasing frequency. while the design
I had submitted for a new national
memorial, which had been thrown
open to competition, was, as I knew,
being very favorably considered.
Suddenly, and without the smallest
warning, this incredible thing had
happened. Arrested on a charge of
murder, of which I was completely
innocent, I had been dragged from
the peaceful atmosphere of my Hamp-
stead studio into the glaring notoriety
of the Central Criminal Court.
My pleasant world had narrowed
to the four walls of a prison cell. The
work on which I was engaged had
come to an abrupt stop.

sons who in the past five years
have expressed a desire to be
named in his prayers twice
daily. This case will be placed
in the historic foundation of
