“God was watching over me then,” Mitya himself said afterwards. At that very moment Grigory waked up on his bed of sickness. Earlier in the evening he had undergone the treatment which Smerdyakov had described to Ivan.
Some said Grigory had the keys, others that the bailiff had them, while others suggested sending for a blacksmith and breaking the padlocks. And all talked at once, interrupting and shouting one another down. Pyotr Dmitritch paced impatiently to and fro on the bank, shouting: "What the devil's the meaning of it! The keys ought always to be lying in the hall window! Who has dared to take them away?
In the first place that Grigory, who had been intending to take his medicine, might put it off and remain on guard, seeing there was no one to look after the house, and, in the second place, I suppose, that his master seeing that there was no one to guard him, and in terror of a visit from his son, might redouble his vigilance and precaution.
Of course this was no great grievance to him: he would not have troubled to contradict a set of tradespeople. In those days he was proud, and did not condescend to talk except in his own circle of the officials and nobles, whom he entertained so well. At the time, Grigory stood up for his master vigorously.
You know I liked you and could have desired no better husband for my sister; but what has happened is awful! It's terrible to think of it!" "Why is it terrible?" asked Vlassitch, with a quiver in his voice. "It would be terrible if we had done wrong, but that isn't so." "Listen, Grigory. You know I have no prejudices; but, excuse my frankness, to my mind you have both acted selfishly.
In Litvinov's soul rose, like sudden gusts of wind before a storm, momentary impulses of fury. He determined to leave Baden at once. Getting a carriage, he took his box to the station. He was just taking his seat in the railway carriage. "Grigory Mihalovitch... Grigory..." he heard a supplicating whisper behind him.
"Call the porter here!" he shouted. "It's devilish queer! But I will find out who he is!" "I say, Grigory," he said, addressing the porter as he entered, "that Fedyukov has signed his name again! Did you see him?" "No, your Excellency." "Upon my word, but he has signed his name! So he must have been in the hall. Has he been?" "No, he hasn't, your Excellency."
“That is, what blood? ... and why is the cuff turned in?” Mitya told him how he had got the sleeve stained with blood looking after Grigory, and had turned it inside when he was washing his hands at Perhotin’s. “You must take off your shirt, too. That’s very important as material evidence.” Mitya flushed red and flew into a rage. “What, am I to stay naked?” he shouted. “Don’t disturb yourself.
“You might have guessed from the fact of my asking you not to go to Moscow, but to Tchermashnya, that I wanted to have you nearer, for Moscow’s a long way off, and Dmitri Fyodorovitch, knowing you are not far off, would not be so bold. And if anything had happened, you might have come to protect me, too, for I warned you of Grigory Vassilyevitch’s illness, and that I was afraid of having a fit.
All the guests were sauntering about the garden. "I shall have to suggest a walk in the birchwood before tea, or else a row in the boats," thought Olga Mihalovna, hurrying to the croquet ground, from which came the sounds of voices and laughter. "And sit the old people down to vint. . . ." She met Grigory the footman coming from the croquet ground with empty bottles.
