To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The room in which she lay was locked, the doorleading into Mr. Macallan's room being secured, as well as the doorleading into the corridor. The keys had been taken away by Mr. Gale. Twoof the men-servants were posted outside the bedroom to keep watch. Theywere to be relieved at four in the morning--that was all they could tellme.
"In the absence of any explanations or directions, I took the liberty ofknocking at the door of Mr. Dexter's room. From his lips I first heardthe startling news. Both ...the doctors had refused to give the usualcertificate of death! There was to be a medical examination of the bodythe next morning. " There the examination of the nurse, Christina Ormsay, came to an end.
Ignorant as I was of the law, I could see what impression the evidence(so far) was intended to produce on the minds of the jury. After firstshowing that my husband had had two opportunities of administering thepoison--once in the medicine and once in the tea--the counsel forthe Crown led the jury to infer that the prisoner had taken thoseopportunities to rid himself of an ugly and jealous wife, whosedetestable temper he could no longer endure.
