I didn't know the inquest made any difference.

I would have told the coroner the morning he came to take my testimony, only he brought Jim Mattison with him as a witness, and I couldn't explain before Jim." "That would have been awkward," Terry agreed.
"Polly," said I, severely.

"This is inexcusable! If you had explained to me in the first place, the jury would never have remanded Radnor for trial." "But I thought you would find the real murderer, and then Radnor would be set free.

It would be awful to tell that story before a whole room full of people and have Jim Mattison hear it.

I detest Jim Mattison!" "Be careful what you say," said Terry.
