The Accused

At the time Morlock went to trial for her murder, less than one wall was done. Murder ruthlessly and heartlessly committed on the person who had every reason to expect nothing but a cherishing affection from the accused. Out of vast relief and a little shame Louise had been wildly penitent when she and Morlock left the police station to ride back to Warfield. He waited until past two o’clock for her to come home, and finally fell asleep in a kitchen chair.
