She ran downstairs to her fellow-servant in the kitchen. I asked Mrs. Crosscapel how and when the alarm of the murder had been given. "Soon after three this morning," says she, "I was woke by the screams of Mrs. Zebedee. I found her out here on the landing, and Mr. Deluc, in great alarm, trying to quiet her. Sleeping in the next room he had only to open his door, when her screams woke him.
I feel I do always less than justice to the delightful memory of Captain Jenkin; but with a lad of this character, cutting the teeth of his intelligence, he was sure to fall into the background. The family removed in 1847 to Paris, where Fleeming was put to school under one Deluc.
No such discovery rewarded us. We found Deluc to have led a dissipated life, and to have mixed with very bad company. But he had kept out of reach of the law.

Nothing came of the examination, except what Mrs. Crosscapel had in substance already mentioned to me. Mr.
