A stout fresh-coloured man had taken a seat behind him with two thinner men, his companions, and they were all in earnest conversation. The stout man was the prosecutor his companions were his witnesses and the youthful counsellor was, on this occasion, retained against the prisoner.
Not a little alarmed by the Comte de Serizy's attitude and expression, his friend led him aside. "My dear fellow," said he in a whisper, "your distress persuades me for the first and only time in my life to compromise with my duty." The public prosecutor rang, and the office-boy appeared. "Desire Monsieur de Chargeboeuf to come here."
Do not interrupt me," exclaimed the artist, impatiently. "That is right. Silence now." "You have the floor," said several voices at once. " She was pale, and she heaved convulsive sighs and wrung her soft, warm hands, and a white pearl rolled from her dark lashes, and " "Why do you begin all your phrases with 'and?" asked the public prosecutor, with the captiousness of an inexorable critic.
The Public Prosecutor was right in saying it was to excite the non-possessing classes to hatred and contempt of the possessing class." "He was. I live but to point out to the working-man how he is exploited by capitalists like you." "And ruin your own sister!" "Ha, ha! So you're afraid I shall succeed. Good!" His blue eyes blazed. He stood still, an image of triumphant Will.

On the beach below, the magistrate and the public prosecutor were continuing their investigations, taking measurements, examining the witnesses and generally laying their heads together.
In spite of all the skill of the envenomed Encisco, who had been appointed the public prosecutor in Pedrarias's administration, Balboa was at last acquitted of having been concerned in the death of Nicuesa. Pedrarias, furious at the verdict, made living a burden to poor Vasco Nuñez by civil suits which ate up all his property.
The inquiry at Stratham was calculated to elicit the truth; and, after all, there is not the slightest reason to suspect that he knew that the doubloon was in his pocket-book. What could possibly induce the defendants to place it there? No man can conjecture a reason. On the other hand, if this is a fraudulent proceeding on the part of the prosecutor, this circumstance could be explained.
Age and blindness had unfitted Lord North for the duties of a public prosecutor; and his friends were left without the help of his excellent sense, his tact, and his urbanity.
Gascogne bowed and would have withdrawn, but Monferrand detained him to say that not a day passed without his friend Monsieur Lehmann, the Public Prosecutor, receiving letters from Anarchists who threatened to blow him up with his family; in such wise that, although he was by no means a coward, he wished his house to be guarded by plain-clothes officers.
