"What other name have you been known by in or out of Ireland?" he added sharply to Crozier. "No other name so far as I know." "No other name so far as you know," repeated the lawyer in a sarcastic tone intended to impress the court. "Who was your father?" "John Gathorne Crozier." "Any title?" "He was a baronet." "What was his business?" "He had no profession, though he had business, of course."
"Is John Gathorne Crozier still living?" "I said that gentleman was his designation in official documents. I supposed that would convey the fact that he was not living, but I see you do not quickly grasp a point." Burlingame was stung by the laughter in the court and ventured a riposte. "But is once a gentleman always a gentleman an infallible rule?"
"What is your name?" "James Gathorne Kerry, as I have already given it to the court," was the calm reply. "Where do you live?" "In Askatoon, as I have already said in evidence; and if it is necessary to give my domicile, I live at the house of Mrs. Tyndall Tynan, Pearl Street as you know so well." The tone in which he uttered the last few words was such that even the judge pricked up his ears.

I don't know what possessed me. I was off my trolley, I suppose, as John Sibley puts it. Well, when Mrs. James Shiel Gathorne Crozier said oh, so sweetly and kindly 'You are Miss Tynan? what do you think I replied? I said to her, 'The same'!" Rather an acidly satisfied smile came to Mrs. Tynan's lips. "That was like the Slatterly girls," she replied.
"I do not quite see the full significance of the line of defence, but I think I must allow the question," was the judge's gentle and reluctant reply, for he was greatly impressed by this witness, by his transparent honesty and straightforwardness. "Were you a legitimate son of John Gathorne Crozier and his wife?" asked Burlingame. "Yes, a legitimate son," answered Crozier in an even voice.
He's been asleep in a way for five years, and now he's awake again. He is not James Gathorne Kerry now; he is James Shiel Gathorne Crozier, and oh, you understand: he's back again where he was before before he left her." The Young Doctor nodded approvingly. "What a little brazen wonder you are! I declare you see more than " "Yet you won't have me?" she asked mockingly.

Mr Dent, who acted as consul in the absence of Mr Gathorne, not only procured this permission, but accommodated Mr Wales with a convenient place in his garden to set up his instruments; so that he was enabled to observe equal altitudes the same day.
It was as though, while he was living under an assumed name, the real James Shiel Gathorne Crozier did not exist, or was in the far background of the doings and sayings of J. G. Kerry. His wife and the past had been shadowy in a way, had been as part of a life lived out, which would return in some distant day, but was not vital to the present.
