Oh! she was dear, and good, and kind, our Kirsty!

The house belonged to Lord Rosenberg. 'Confound it! 'said Bruce, as he flung himself into the taxi. 'Well! I've made a mistake for once in my life. I admit it. Of course, it's really Hamilton Gardens. Sorry. Yet somehow I'm rather glad Mitchell doesn't live in that house. 'You are perfectly right, said Edith: 'the bankruptcy of an old friend and colleague could be no satisfaction to any man.

He again calls him "the planet-blasted Mitchell."

That night, after the trial, a gentleman came to see him here, name of Mitchell, him as he stole from. Talked to him for an hour. Thought he came for curiosity, like. After he was gone, thought Wolfe was remarkable quiet, and went into his cell. Found him very low; bed all bloody. Doctor said he had been bleeding at the lungs.
