The paper is the same, and these lines in red ink are a part of the decoration that surrounds the printed matter.

No,--there is no doubt in my mind as to what this paper is." "What part of the bond is it ?" asked Moxlow.
"The lower right-hand corner," replied the banker promptly.

"That is why I hesitated to identify it; with this much of the upper left-hand corner for instance, I should not have been in doubt." "Excused," said Moxlow briefly.
The room became blank before John North's eyes as he realized that a chain of circumstantial evidence was connecting him with the McBride murder.

He glanced about at a score of men--witnesses, officials, and jury, and felt their sudden doubt of him, as intangibly but as certainly as he felt the dead presence just beyond the closed door.
"We have one other witness," said Moxlow.
And Joe Montgomery, seeming to understand that he was this witness, promptly quitted his chair at the back of the room and, cap in hand, slouched forward and was duly sworn by the coroner.
If Mr.Montgomery had shown promptness he had also evinced uneasiness, since his fear of the law was as rock-ribbed as his respect for it.

He was not unfamiliar with courts, though never before had he appeared in the character of a witness; and he had told himself many times that day that the business in which he had allowed Mr.Gilmore to involve him carried him far behind his depths.
