"That's where it is," said Moulder. "Lord bless you, John, they'll turn you round their finger like a bit of red tape. Truth! Gammon! What do they care for truth?" "But I care, Moulder," said Kenneby. "I don't suppose they can make me tell falsehoods if I don't wish it." "Not if you're the man I take you to be," said Mrs. Smiley. "Gammon!" said Moulder. "Mr.
Had Lady Mason been a woman steeped in guilt from her infancy, had she been noted for cunning and fraudulent ingenuity, had she been known as an expert forger, you would not have convicted her on this indictment, having had before you the malice and greed of Dockwrath, the stupidity I may almost call it idiocy, of Kenneby, and the dogged resolution to conceal the truth evinced by the woman Bolster.
Smiley, "but I look on it as disrespectful; and seeing the position which I hold as regards John Kenneby, anything disrespectful to him is hurtful to my feelings." "All right," said Moulder. "And now, John, I'll just tell you what it is. You've no more chance of being allowed to speak freely there than than than no more than if you was in church.
The case for the jury, as he said, hung altogether upon the evidence of Kenneby and the woman Bolster. As far as he could see, the evidence of Dockwrath had little to do with it; and alleged malice and greed on the part of Dockwrath could have nothing to do with it.
He thought, however, that it would as certainly be beyond the power of Mr. Furnival; and when the great man lying on the sofa mentioned the name of Mr. Felix Graham, Mr. Aram merely smiled. The question with him was this: Which would be the safest course? to make quite sure of Kenneby by leaving him with Chaffanbrass; or to go for the double stake by handing Kenneby over to Mr.
On that matter Kenneby had not made any positive assertion, though he had expressed a very strong opinion. Mr. Furnival was not satisfied with this, but wished to show that Kenneby had not on that matter even a strong opinion.
Matthew had quite come round and been forced to acknowledge all that Dockwrath had done for the cause. In Bedford Row there was no doubt whatever as to the verdict. "That woman Bolster is quite clear that she only signed one deed," said Kantwise. "I shall say nothing nothing here," said Kenneby. "Quite right, John," said Mrs. Smiley. "Your feelings on the occasion become you."
"Enough's enough between friends any day," said Mrs. Moulder. "So give her your hand, John." "I think it'll be right to say one thing first," said Kenneby, with a solemn and deliberate tone. "And what's that?" said Mrs. Smiley, eagerly. "In such a matter as this," continued Kenneby, "where the hearts are concerned " "You didn't say anything about hearts yet," said Mrs.
"They can't do anything to one if one do one's best?" said Kenneby, who was sitting apart from the table while the others were eating. "Of course they can't," said Dockwrath, who wished to inspirit the witnesses on his own side. "It ain't what they do, but what they say," said Moulder; "and then everybody is looking at you. I remember a case when I was young on the road; it was at Nottingham.
Smiley, however, did not at all seem to think so, and welcomed John Kenneby back from Alston very warmly in spite of the disgrace to which he had been subjected. It was nothing to her that the judge had called her future lord a fool; nor indeed was it anything to any one but himself. According to Moulder's views it was a matter of course that a witness should be abused.
