"I am half of a mind that that is so. The thing of it is, to catch the young man and prove it."
"That is so."
"If we catch him he may deny everything, unless he is certain he can make out a case of insanity against her."
"But she is no more insane than you or I!" cried Mr. Farley.
"I agree with you. But Frederic Vernon had a tool, a certain Dr. Remington, who was willing to swear that Mrs. Vernon was of unsound mind."
"It is a dastardly plot, and the man who invented it ought to be in prison."
"Mrs. Vernon hated publicity or anything in the nature of a family scandal. That is why she suffered so much in silence."
"We ought to find this Frederic Vernon at once."
"That is so."
"If you agree with me, we will put a private detective on his track. I know a reliable man, who knows when to talk and when to keep his mouth shut."
