Accordingly, on June 20, I wrote to Mr.
Are my hands stained with human blood? Is not my soul blameless?" Then in bitterness he says: "Yes, return and be hung! Listen to adroitly narrated lies of detectives, caring only for vindication of their theories of guilt! Witness the heartless curiosity of vulgar crowds feasting on rumor and depraved gossip!
