One of your boys, doctor, I see, is charged with attempting to blow up part of the school gymnasium last night, and injuring this poor fellow here.

Well, sir, this is a serious charge to make; _let_ us hear what you have to say.

This is not a sworn examination, but what you say will be taken down, and the boy you accuse will have a right to ask any question.
