With all her labour, with all her care, and with all her strength, she had not succeeded in becoming the master of that weak old man. The News Reaches Cambridge The tidings of John Caldigate's pardon reached Cambridge on the Saturday morning, and was communicated in various shapes. Official letters from the Home Office were written to the governor of the jail and to the sub-sheriff, to Mr.
But it will be for you to consider whether you can find such stain of perjury merely because the impression on the envelope is clear and clean. When he came to the present condition of Caldigate's wife and child at Folking, he was very tender in his speech, but even his tenderness seemed to turn itself against the accused.
Another trial was, in truth, demanded. And so it was in Caldigate's case. The Secretary of State, getting up early in the morning after a remarkable speech, in which he vindicated his Ministry from the attacks of all Europe, did read all the papers, and took home to himself the great Bagwaxian theory. He mastered Dick's evidence; and managed to master something also as to Dick's character.
Caldigate had been engaged to marry the woman, and had lived with her, and had addressed her as his wife! The man had in a way got the better of him. And then the twenty thousand pounds! And then, again, Caldigate's manner to himself!
It is that which still puzzles me so that I can hardly make up my mind to be quite sure that he is innocent. But still we have to be sure. Perhaps the miracle will be explained some day. John Caldigate's Return
Caldigate's guilt was an idea fixed in his mind which no Secretary of State, no Judge Bramber, no brother could expel. And so it came to pass that there were hard words between him and his brother. 'You are wrong, said William. 'How wrong? You cannot say that you believe him to be innocent. 'If he receives the Queen's pardon he is to be considered as innocent.
It had reached Caldigate's ears that he was unfortunate in his judge; by which, they who had so said, had intended to imply that this judge's mind would not be perverted by any sentiments as to the prisoner, as to the sweet young woman who called herself his wife at home, or as to want of sweetness on the part of the other woman who claimed him.
'If you please I will say good morning to you. 'By George! when I tell you that I was there all the time, and that Caldigate never spoke to the woman, or so much as saw her all that month, and that therefore your own sister is in honest truth Caldigate's wife, you won't listen to me! Do you mean to say that I'm lying? 'Mr. Shand, I must ask you to leave my office. 'By George!
'John Caldigate's marriage with his wife was not in the least interfered with by the verdict. 'It took away the lady's name from her at once, said the indignant clergyman. 'That's just what it didn't do, said the squire, rising from his chair; 'of itself it didn't affect her name at all. And now that it is shown to have been a mistaken verdict, it doesn't affect her position.
He also had been commissioned to seek for evidence, and to bring back with him, almost at any cost, whatever witness or witnesses he might find whose presence in England would serve Caldigate's cause. But he brought no one, and had learned very little. He too had been at Ahalala and at Nobble. At Nobble the people were now very full of the subject and were very much divided in opinion.
