Mr. Chaine's Sons, Vol. 2 of 3

Excerpt from Mr. Chaine's Sons, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel BY noontide on the following day St. Albyn's and its neighbourhood were in the full enjoy ment of a piece of news which for interest and excitement fairly eclipsed anything that had been known to occur in that part of the world within living memory. Murders, of course, there had been from time to time, in consonance with the law of averages; but these had for the most part been of a vulgar and commonplace kind, unattended by any mystery and worthy of remark only in so far as they had served to prove the lament.
