"No, sir. I didn't know that," replied Clyde, just the same.
"Anyhow was that the reason after you got away that you changed your name to Tenet as you told me?" continued Jephson.
"Yes, sir."
"By the way, just where did you get that name of Tenet, Clyde?"
"It was the name of a boy I used to play with in Quincy."
"Was he a good boy?"
"Object!" called Mason, from his chair. "Incompetent, immaterial, irrelevant."
"Oh, he might have associated with a good boy in spite of what you would like to have the jury believe, and in that sense it is very relevant," sneered Jephson.
"Objection sustained!" boomed Justice Oberwaltzer.
