I
want
a
copy
of
that
,
"
added
the
third
,
in
a
sharp
and
uncompromising
tone
,
seeing
that
the
first
reporter
was
proceeding
to
take
and
pocket
the
message
.
"
This
is
n't
private
.
I
get
it
from
you
or
her
--
now
!
"
And
at
this
,
number
one
,
in
order
to
avoid
a
scene
,
which
Mrs.
Griffiths
,
in
her
slow
way
,
was
beginning
to
sense
,
extracted
the
slip
from
his
pocket
and
turned
it
over
to
the
others
,
who
there
and
then
proceeded
to
copy
it
.
At
the
same
time
that
this
was
going
on
,
the
Griffiths
of
Lycurgus
,
having
been
consulted
as
to
the
wisdom
and
cost
of
a
new
trial
,
disclosed
themselves
as
by
no
means
interested
,
let
alone
convinced
,
that
an
appeal
--
at
least
at
their
expense
--
was
justified
.
The
torture
and
socially
--
if
not
commercially
--
destroying
force
of
all
this
--
every
hour
of
it
a
Golgotha
!
Bella
and
her
social
future
,
to
say
nothing
of
Gilbert
and
his
--
completely
overcast
and
charred
by
this
awful
public
picture
of
the
plot
and
crime
that
one
of
their
immediate
blood
had
conceived
and
executed
!
Samuel
Griffiths
himself
,
as
well
as
his
wife
,
fairly
macerated
by
this
blasting
flash
from
his
well-intentioned
,
though
seemingly
impractical
and
nonsensical
good
deed
.
Had
not
a
long
,
practical
struggle
with
life
taught
him
that
sentiment
in
business
was
folly
?
Up
to
the
hour
he
had
met
Clyde
he
had
never
allowed
it
to
influence
him
in
any
way
.
But
his
mistaken
notion
that
his
youngest
brother
had
been
unfairly
dealt
with
by
their
father
!
And
now
this
!
This
!
His
wife
and
daughter
compelled
to
remove
from
the
scene
of
their
happiest
years
and
comforts
and
live
as
exiles
--
perhaps
forever
--
in
one
of
the
suburbs
of
Boston
,
or
elsewhere
--
or
forever
endure
the
eyes
and
sympathy
of
their
friends
!
And
himself
and
Gilbert
almost
steadily
conferring
ever
since
as
to
the
wisdom
of
uniting
the
business
in
stock
form
with
some
of
the
others
of
Lycurgus
or
elsewhere
--
or
,
if
not
that
,
of
transferring
,
not
by
degrees
but
speedily
,
to
either
Rochester
or
Buffalo
or
Boston
or
Brooklyn
,
where
a
main
plant
might
be
erected
.
The
disgrace
of
this
could
only
be
overcome
by
absenting
themselves
from
Lycurgus
and
all
that
it
represented
to
them
.
They
must
begin
life
all
over
again
--
socially
at
least
.
That
did
not
mean
so
much
to
himself
or
his
wife
--
their
day
was
about
over
anyhow
.
But
Bella
and
Gilbert
and
Myra
--
how
to
rehabilitate
them
in
some
way
,
somewhere
?
And
so
,
even
before
the
trial
was
finished
,
a
decision
on
the
part
of
Samuel
and
Gilbert
Griffiths
to
remove
the
business
to
South
Boston
,
where
they
might
decently
submerge
themselves
until
the
misery
and
shame
of
this
had
in
part
at
least
been
forgotten
.
And
because
of
this
further
aid
to
Clyde
absolutely
refused
.
And
Belknap
and
Jephson
then
sitting
down
together
to
consider
.
For
obviously
,
their
time
being
as
valuable
as
it
was
--
devoted
hitherto
to
the
most
successful
practice
in
Bridgeburg
--
and
with
many
matters
waiting
on
account
of
the
pressure
of
this
particular
case
--
they
were
by
no
means
persuaded
that
either
their
practical
self
-
interest
or
their
charity
permitted
or
demanded
their
assisting
Clyde
without
further
recompense
.
In
fact
,
the
expense
of
appealing
this
case
was
going
to
be
considerable
as
they
saw
it
.
The
record
was
enormous
.
The
briefs
would
be
large
and
expensive
,
and
the
State
's
allowance
for
them
was
pitifully
small
.
At
the
same
time
,
as
Jephson
pointed
out
,
it
was
folly
to
assume
that
the
western
Griffiths
might
not
be
able
to
do
anything
at
all
.
Had
they
not
been
identified
with
religious
and
charitable
work
this
long
while
?
And
was
it
not
possible
,
the
tragedy
of
Clyde
's
present
predicament
pointed
out
to
them
,
that
they
might
through
appeals
of
various
kinds
raise
at
least
sufficient
money
to
defray
the
actual
costs
of
such
an
appeal
?
Of
course
,
they
had
not
aided
Clyde
up
to
the
present
time
but
that
was
because
his
mother
had
been
notified
that
she
was
not
needed
.
It
was
different
now
.
"
Better
wire
her
to
come
on
,
"
suggested
Jephson
,
practically
.
"
We
can
get
Oberwaltzer
to
set
the
sentence
over
until
the
tenth
if
we
say
that
she
is
trying
to
come
on
here
.
Besides
,
just
tell
her
to
do
it
and
if
she
says
she
ca
n't
we
'll
see
about
the
money
then
.
But
she
'll
be
likely
to
get
it
and
maybe
some
towards
the
appeal
too
.
"
And
forthwith
a
telegram
and
a
letter
to
Mrs.
Griffiths
,
saying
that
as
yet
no
word
had
been
said
to
Clyde
but
none-the-less
his
Lycurgus
relatives
had
declined
to
assist
him
further
in
any
way
.
Besides
,
he
was
to
be
sentenced
not
later
than
the
tenth
,
and
for
his
own
future
welfare
it
was
necessary
that
some
one
--
preferably
herself
--
appear
.
Also
that
funds
to
cover
the
cost
of
an
appeal
be
raised
,
or
at
least
the
same
guaranteed
.
