One day while working at his desk Stanway sees a brawl in the barroom, in which the bartender finally hits a man over the head with a mallet; this is all Stanway can see clearly. It develops later that the man who was struck dies, and the blame is shifted by the bartender, who knows nothing of Stanway's espionage, to the town drunkard, who has a beautiful daughter with whom Stanway is in love. Of course the story ends properly, as all stories should, with the bartender in jail, the town drunkard reformed and the lawyer married to the girl. But before it ends there is a corking good fight between the accused man and the real culprit. Written by
