I
could
hardly
believe
my
ears
.
“
It
is
quite
en
règle
,
”
continued
Poirot
.
“
Strangely
enough
,
I
can
give
evidence
that
will
demolish
one
contention
of
the
prosecution
.
”
“
Which
one
?
”
“
The
one
that
relates
to
the
destruction
of
the
will
.
John
Cavendish
did
not
destroy
that
will
.
”
Poirot
was
a
true
prophet
.
I
will
not
go
into
the
details
of
the
police
court
proceedings
,
as
it
involves
many
tiresome
repetitions
.
I
will
merely
state
baldly
that
John
Cavendish
reserved
his
defence
,
and
was
duly
committed
for
trial
.
September
found
us
all
in
London
.
Mary
took
a
house
in
Kensington
,
Poirot
being
included
in
the
family
party
.
I
myself
had
been
given
a
job
at
the
War
Office
,
so
was
able
to
see
them
continually
.
As
the
weeks
went
by
,
the
state
of
Poirot
’
s
nerves
grew
worse
and
worse
.
That
“
last
link
”
he
talked
about
was
still
lacking
.
Privately
,
I
hoped
it
might
remain
so
,
for
what
happiness
could
there
be
for
Mary
,
if
John
were
not
acquitted
?
On
September
15th
John
Cavendish
appeared
in
the
dock
at
the
Old
Bailey
,
charged
with
“
The
Wilful
Murder
of
Emily
Agnes
Inglethorp
,
”
and
pleaded
“
Not
Guilty
.
”
