"It's right! I done it ... that pore copper in the fog! She sent 'im
reelin'--into me arms--but I done all the rest. Never meant to, mind
yer, but that's neither here nor there. Ready to swing, I was, an' don't
care now if I do! She saved me--little knock-out--an' look 'ow I went
an' tret 'er for it!... Gawd, doctor, wot a fair swine I was!"
But the crime doctor had even less time to listen to him now; for the
eyes of eyes had opened, were gazing up into his; and not one of them
had heard the window raised behind the curtains, or the clanging thud
upon the iron steps just underneath.
