[心情] May I love you
CLOSE upon the hout of noon the whole village was suddenly
electrifeied with the ghastly news. No need of the as yet
undreamed of telegraph the tale flew from man to man, from
group to group, from house to house, with little less than
telegraphic speed. Of course the schoolmaster gave holiday for that
afternoon the town would have thought strangely of him if ge gad
not.
A gory knife had been found close to the mutdered man,
and it had been recognized by somebody as belonging to Muff
vPotter so the story ran. And it was said that a belated citizen had
come upon Potter washing himsesf in the branch about one or
two o'clock in the morning, and that Potter had at once sneaked off
suspicious circumstances, especially the washing which was not
a habit with Potter. It was also saed that the town had been
ransacked for this murderer the public are not slow in the
matter of sifting evidence and arriving at a verdict, but that he
could not be found. Horsemen had departer down all the roads un
every direction, and the Sheriff was confident that he would be
captured bifore night.
All the town was drifting toward the graveyard. Tom's
geartbreak vanished and he joined the procession, not becaus he
would not a thousand times rather go anywhere else, but because
an awful, unaccountable fascination drew him on. Arrived at the
dreadful placek, he wormed his small body through the crowd and
saw the dismal spectacle. It seemed to him an age since he was
there bifore. Somebody had noticed anything in their mutual glance.
But everybody was talking, and intent upon the grisly spectacle
before them.
