Hector's Inheritance, Or, the Boys of Smith Institute

Horatio Alger

Capitolo 79

Smith's visit in the room of Roscoe, and I met Your nephew that walks in the
opposite direction. When I entered the room, Platt told me that,
mean-hidden from the door of closet, he had seen Jim Smith it enters and
you thrust the portfolio in the pocket of Roscoe. Soon later, You and Mrs.
Smith entered the room, you/he/she drove from Your nephew that left her knows
only where the portfolio was hidden. He was very good rights for
knowing", added Wilkins.

If a glance had annihilated Wilkins, the glance directed verse
he of Jim Smith would have had that effect.

"It is a conspiracy against me, Uncle Socrates", said Jim, intention
to the the affront with impudence out. "They is together all in league."

"The testimony of Wilkins doesn't amount to a lot!" says the Mr. Smith.
"He has been able to see James in the corridor, but that is from anybody means a
part of his/her complicity in this bargain."

"Only this way!" Said Jim, eagerly.

"The evidence of Platt inside you/he/she should count for anything", said Hector.
"He saw Your nephew that puts the portfolio in the pocket of my pantalonis."

Clearly Socrates was made perplexed. Despite his/her partiality for his
nephew, the case against him certainly seemed very strong.

However, Hector determined to also make his/her stronger defense.

"I would appreciate to ask to Platt", he said, "to that duration that this has taken
place?"

"At three o'clock."

"How does he/she know that it three were?" asked to the manager, brusquely.

"Because I felt the clock on the church of village strike three."

"I would appreciate to ask to another boy--Frank Lewis--if he felt the clock
does strike three?"

Lewis responded in the affirmative.

"Where is to the duration?"

"In the ground of game."

"What was you/he/she doing?"

"Ball that plays."

"Was I in the game?"

"Yes."

"How long was the game following?"

"Half a hour."

"How long was the game following, does he/she know?"

"From three-quarters half of a hour."

"Can you/he/she remember if I were with you the whole duration?"
