[The Middle Temple Murder by J.S. Fletcher]@TWC D-Link bookThe Middle Temple Murder CHAPTER ELEVEN 4/12
Mr.Myerst told of Marbury's visit to the Safe Deposit, and further proved that the box which he placed there proved, on official examination, to be empty. 9.
William Webster re-told the story of his encounter with Marbury in one of the vestibules of the House of Commons, and of his witnessing the meeting between him and the gentleman whom he (Webster) now knew to be Mr.Aylmore, a Member of Parliament. All this led up to the appearance of Mr.Aylmore, M.P., in the witness-box.
And Spargo knew and felt that it was that appearance for which the crowded court was waiting.
Thanks to his own vivid and realistic specials in the _Watchman_, everybody there had already become well and thoroughly acquainted with the mass of evidence represented by the nine witnesses who had been in the box before Mr. Aylmore entered it.
They were familiar, too, with the facts which Mr. Aylmore had permitted Spargo to print after the interview at the club, which Ronald Breton arranged.
