He
would
call
evidence
to
show
who
did
destroy
the
will
,
and
it
was
possible
that
that
might
open
up
quite
a
new
view
of
the
case
.
Finally
,
he
would
point
out
to
the
jury
that
there
was
evidence
against
other
people
besides
John
Cavendish
.
He
would
direct
their
attention
to
the
fact
that
the
evidence
against
Mr
.
Lawrence
Cavendish
was
quite
as
strong
,
if
not
stronger
than
that
against
his
brother
.
He
would
now
call
the
prisoner
.
John
acquitted
himself
well
in
the
witness
-
box
.
Under
Sir
Ernest
’
s
skilful
handling
,
he
told
his
tale
credibly
and
well
.
The
anonymous
note
received
by
him
was
produced
,
and
handed
to
the
jury
to
examine
.
The
readiness
with
which
he
admitted
his
financial
difficulties
,
and
the
disagreement
with
his
stepmother
,
lent
value
to
his
denials
.
At
the
close
of
his
examination
,
he
paused
,
and
said
:
“
I
should
like
to
make
one
thing
clear
.
I
utterly
reject
and
disapprove
of
Sir
Ernest
Heavywether
’
s
insinuations
against
my
brother
.
My
brother
,
I
am
convinced
,
had
no
more
to
do
with
the
crime
than
I
have
.
”
Sir
Ernest
merely
smiled
,
and
noted
with
a
sharp
eye
that
John
’
s
protest
had
produced
a
very
favourable
impression
on
the
jury
.
Then
the
cross
-
examination
began
.
“
I
understand
you
to
say
that
it
never
entered
your
head
that
the
witnesses
at
the
inquest
could
possibly
have
mistaken
your
voice
for
that
of
Mr
.
Inglethorp
.
Is
not
that
very
surprising
?
”
“
No
,
I
don
’
t
think
so
.
I
was
told
there
had
been
a
quarrel
between
my
mother
and
Mr
.
Inglethorp
,
and
it
never
occurred
to
me
that
such
was
not
really
the
case
.
