The Law and the Lady

CHAPTER XIV
25/33

"May a plain country parson, who isn't used to lawyers in petticoats, be permitted to ask how you mean to do it ?" "I mean to begin by reading the Trial, uncle." "Nice reading for a young woman! You will be wanting a batch of nasty French novels next.

Well, and when you have read the Trial--what then?
Have you thought of that ?" "Yes, uncle; I have thought of that.

I shall first try to form some conclusion (after reading the Trial) as to the guilty person who really committed the crime.

Then I shall make out a list of the witnesses who spoke in my husband's defense.

I shall go to those witnesses, and tell them who I am and what I want.
