Excerpt from On Trial: The Story of a Woman at Bay The shelves Of my library are loaded with scrap-books containing accounts Of all the most celebrated murder cases Of the last twenty-five years. The ones which have never been cleared up are naturally the most fascinating. It would doubtless surprise my friends to know that I have in every one Of these cases - sometimes only after months Of study - been able to arrive at a solution which I am convinced is the true one. Perhaps in my Old age, when time shall have removed the actors from the scenes Of these tragic dramas, I shall Offer these conclusions to the world. It can readily be seen how this natural predis position Ou my part determined me in the choice Of a career. I decided to fit myself for the prae tice Of law and to devote myself to defending those u'nfortunates accused of crime who were without means to regularly employ counsel for themselves. And now we come to the Robert Strickland case. Most Of my readers will probably recall the sen sation caused by the murder Of Gerald Trask, and the principal facts connected with that crime, as they appeared in the papers. It will, there fore, only be necessary to give a brief summary Of the accounts that appeared in the New York papers on the morning of June 2 5th last.
