Yet he did not propose to hold inquests. Let the dead bury their dead! Let them, however, set their hearts as the nether millstone against the adding of transept or tower save only by alms made to God. He went on to ask with whose memory the Lady-chapel was to be associated. Was it not the fact that they had associated the chapel of Christ's Mother with the memory of a visionary statesman?
"That man knows more than he's told, even now!" "Why hasn't he spoken sooner, then?" demanded Mitchington. "He's had two good chances at the inquests." "From what I saw of him, just now," said Jettison, "I should say he's the sort of man who can keep his own counsel till he considers the right time has come for speaking.
And once they were well away she summoned up courage, and asked him the question she knew she would have to ask of someone within the next few minutes. "Can you tell me," she said, in a low voice, "where death inquests are held" she moistened her lips, waited a moment, and then concluded "in the neighbourhood of King's Cross?" The man turned and, looked at her attentively.
Do what you can justify; I shall practise my profession, which now means the same thing as saying: 'I shall continue to close eyes and hold coroner's inquests. If things go on so, there will soon be an end to practice." "Once for all: if you were in my place, you would treat with Valdez?" "In your place?
The coroner's jury has returned a verdict of wilful murder against you!" Mallalieu's big face turned of a queer grey hue that word murder was particularly distasteful to him.

"They don't charge anybody at inquests they only inquire in general.
There had been four inquests, all upon the bodies of air-raid victims: a road-man, his wife, an orphan baby all belonging to the thick central mass of the proletariat, for a West End slum had received a bomb full in the face and Lady Queenie Paulle.
At inquests, for instance, it may be noted how often inquiries are solicitously made, not whether the deceased had religious difficulties or was disappointed in love, but whether he had any financial worries. We hold our own property to be very sacred indeed, and our respect for other men's rights in the matter is based on the fact that we wish our own rights to be respected.
There they were traced to Fifth Avenue Hotel, in New York, where they had been only known by the number of their room, and to which they had come from no one knew whither. Enough money was found in the lady's box to pay the expenses of their funerals. An open verdict was returned at the inquests which were held.
Fayette Overtop here looked volumes of confidence at the jury; and five of the jury looked back volumes of agreement with him. "Nobody can be in a bigger hurry than me, Mr. Overtop," said the coroner, with tolerable good nature. "These 'ere inquests, commencin' in the mornin' and holdin' on a good part of the day, are rather hard on a chap 'customed to his 'leven-o'clock drink.
It was a piece of humbuggery, as all coroners' inquests are, and so the verdict was given. I am a mean man; I acknowledge it I am narrow and vindictive, but I would have made a confession of the manner of Dan's death rather than to see Alf hanged. I knew that there would be a new trial; I intended to leave the community and I resolved to defer my statement until just before going.
