"Ain't it too late, sir?" "And in accusing Battersea I go only on your own premises. You said that the man who stole the devil-stick, who had it in his possession, must be the guilty person. You see the devil-stick there." She pointed to the table. "Well, I obtained that from Battersea." "Lonely, lonely, Molly? You talk about the married state exactly like an old maid.
