I\u003cbr\u003enever liked it, and since the strange case of the man in lower ten, I\u003cbr\u003ehave been a bit squeamish. Given a case like that, where you can\u003cbr\u003ebuild up a network of clues that absolutely incriminate three entirely\u003cbr\u003edifferent people, only one of whom can be guilty, and your faith in\u003cbr\u003ecircumstantial evidence dies of overcrowding. I never see a shivering,\u003cbr\u003ewhite-faced wretch in the prisoners' dock that I do not hark back with\u003cbr\u003eshuddering horror to the strange events on the Pullman car Ontario,\u003cbr\u003ebetween Washington and Pittsburg, on the night of September ninth, last.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMcKnight could tell the story a great deal better than I, although\u003cbr\u003ehe can not spell three consecutive words correctly. But, while he has\u003cbr\u003eimagination and humor, he is lazy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It didn't happen to me, anyhow,\" he protested, when I put it up to\u003cbr\u003ehim. \"And nobody cares for second-hand thrills. Besides, you want the\u003cbr\u003eunvarnished and ungarnished truth, and I'm no hand for that.
