Come, now, and let us go home." Betty's story filled Lois with still greater hope, and she was anxious to see Jasper's lawyer that she might tell him what she had learned. For most of the night she thought about the matter, and she tried to find some reason why Bramshaw should commit the murder. She thought, too, of Jasper, and wondered how he was bearing himself in his lonely cell.
Bramshaw told me, said Leonard, with brow contracted. 'I cannot believe, said Dr. May, 'that it can do you any real harm. I do not think the prosecution ought to take notice of it; but if they do, it will be easy to sift it, and make it tell rather in your favour. 'Maybe so, said Leonard, still coldly. 'Then you will cheer him with some kind message? 'To be sure.
May get back to Stoneborough, and then, in an evening gleam of that stormy day, he was met at the gate of Bankside by Richard and Ethel. 'You need not come in, papa, said Ethel. 'She is asleep. She knows. Dr. May sighed with unspeakable relief. 'Mr. Bramshaw telegraphed, and his clerk came down. It was not so very bad!
Bramshaw and Anderson were greatly struck, and owned that their own minds were satisfied as to the truth of their client's assertion; but they demurred as to the possibility of further steps.

"I am very thankful that he has confessed," and Jasper gave a sigh of relief.
A short distance from the road, and partly concealed, a white tent nestled among the trees, though no sign of the artist was to be seen. Betty breathed a sigh of relief when they were past. She did not wish to see Bramshaw, to whom she had taken such a violent dislike. She wondered where he was at that time of the morning.
Bramshaw had hailed as hopeful. However, the defending barrister rose up to ask him what he meant by having answered 'Something like it. 'Because, said Aubrey, promptly, 'though we did make the scheme, we were neither of us in earnest. 'How do you know the prisoner was not in earnest? 'We often made plans of what we should like to do.
It was the most beautiful and perfect face she had ever seen, and she wondered who she was and where she had come from. She tried to listen to what Bramshaw was saying and at the same time watch the girl before her. She was talking to Dick, and she noted the animated expression upon her face as she smiled at something he was saying.
