Q: Paragraph- Sent 1: The judge leaned back in his chair and beckoned to Mr. Andrews.
Sent 2: It was finished.
Sent 3: Spear was free, and from different parts of the courtroom people were moving toward the door.
Sent 4: Their numbers showed that the friends of the young man had been many.

Sent 7: He begrudged to Isaacs & Sons the credit of having given Spear his liberty.

Sent 10: He was moving out of the railed enclosure when Andrews called him by name.

Sent 13: The speech was about public-spirited citizens who, to the neglect of their own interests, came to assist the ends of justice, and fellow-creatures in misfortune.

Sent 15: "The law, Mr. Thorndike, is not vindictive," he said.
Sent 16: "It wishes only to be just.
Sent 17: Nor can it be swayed by wealth or political or social influences.
Sent 18: But when there is good in a man, I, personally, want to know it, and when gentlemen like yourself, of your standing in this city, come here to speak a good word for a man, we would stultify the purpose of justice if we did not listen.
Sent 19: I thank you for coming, and I wish more of our citizens were as unselfish and public-spirited." It was all quite absurd and most embarrassing, but inwardly Mr. Thorndike glowed with pleasure.
Sent 20: It was a long time since any one had had the audacity to tell him he had done well.
Question: Why did Mr. Thorndike feel a twinge of disappointment?.

A:
He wished, in bringing it about, he had had some part.
