In the whirl of our incessant activity; it has often been
difficult for me; as the reader has probably observed; to round off my
narratives; and to give those final details which the curious might
expect。 Each case has been the prelude to another; and the crisis once
over; the actors have passed for ever out of our busy lives。 I find;
however; a short note at the end of my manuscript dealing with this
case; in which I have put it upon record that Miss Violet Smith did
indeed inherit a large fortune; and that she is now the wife of
Cyril Morton; the senior partner of Morton & Kennedy; the famous
Westminster electricians。 Williamson and Woodley were both tried for
abduction and assault; the former getting seven years the latter
ten。 Of the fate of Carruthers; I have no record; but I am sure that
his assault was not viewed very gravely by the court; since Woodley
had the reputation of being a most dangerous ruffian; and I think that
a few; months were sufficient to satisfy the demands of justice。
