I
'm
afraid
they
would
n't
,
no
,
sir
,
"
replied
Clyde
,
thinking
of
Gilbert
.
"
Well
,
let
me
see
,
"
went
on
Jephson
after
a
time
.
"
That
makes
it
rather
hard
.
I
do
n't
see
,
though
,
that
anything
else
would
be
as
safe
.
"
And
here
he
turned
once
more
to
Belknap
and
began
to
inquire
as
to
what
he
thought
of
suicide
as
a
theory
,
since
Roberta
's
letters
themselves
showed
a
melancholy
trend
which
might
easily
have
led
to
thoughts
of
suicide
.
And
could
they
not
say
that
once
out
on
the
lake
with
Clyde
and
pleading
with
him
to
marry
her
,
and
he
refusing
to
do
so
,
she
had
jumped
overboard
.
And
he
was
too
astounded
and
mentally
upset
to
try
to
save
her
.
"
But
what
about
his
own
story
that
the
wind
had
blown
his
hat
off
,
and
in
trying
to
save
that
he
upset
the
boat
?
"
interjected
Belknap
,
and
exactly
as
though
Clyde
were
not
present
.
"
Well
,
that
's
true
enough
,
too
,
but
could
n't
we
say
that
perhaps
,
since
he
was
morally
responsible
for
her
condition
,
which
in
turn
had
caused
her
to
take
her
life
,
he
did
not
want
to
confess
to
the
truth
of
her
suicide
?
"
At
this
Clyde
winced
,
but
neither
now
troubled
to
notice
him
.
They
talked
as
though
he
was
not
present
or
could
have
no
opinion
in
the
matter
,
a
procedure
which
astonished
but
by
no
means
moved
him
to
object
,
since
he
was
feeling
so
helpless
.
"
But
the
false
registrations
!
The
two
hats
--
the
suit
--
his
bag
!
"
insisted
Belknap
staccatically
,
a
tone
which
showed
Clyde
how
serious
Belknap
considered
his
predicament
to
be
.
"
Well
,
whatever
theory
we
advance
,
those
things
will
have
to
be
accounted
for
in
some
way
,
"
replied
Jephson
,
dubiously
.
"
We
ca
n't
admit
the
true
story
of
his
plotting
without
an
insanity
plea
,
not
as
I
see
it
--
at
any
rate
.
And
unless
we
use
that
,
we
've
got
that
evidence
to
deal
with
whatever
we
do
.
"
He
threw
up
his
hands
wearily
and
as
if
to
say
:
I
swear
I
do
n't
know
what
to
do
about
this
.
"
But
,
"
persisted
Belknap
,
"
in
the
face
of
all
that
,
and
his
refusal
to
marry
her
,
after
his
promises
referred
to
in
her
letters
--
why
,
it
would
only
react
against
him
,
so
that
public
opinion
would
be
more
prejudiced
against
him
than
ever
.
No
,
that
wo
n't
do
,
"
he
concluded
.
"
We
'll
have
to
think
of
something
which
will
create
some
sort
of
sympathy
for
him
.
"
And
then
once
more
turning
to
Clyde
as
though
there
had
been
no
such
discussion
.
And
looking
at
him
as
much
as
to
say
:
"
You
are
a
problem
indeed
.
"
And
then
Jephson
,
observing
:
"
And
,
oh
,
yes
,
that
suit
you
dropped
in
that
lake
up
there
near
the
Cranstons
'
--
describe
the
spot
to
me
as
near
as
you
can
where
you
threw
it
--
how
far
from
the
house
was
it
?
"
He
waited
until
Clyde
haltingly
attempted
to
recapture
the
various
details
of
the
hour
and
the
scene
as
he
could
recall
it
.
"
If
I
could
go
up
there
,
I
could
find
it
quick
enough
.
"
