Taking Notes...Description
0You find it on a bustling street-corner[…]: a booth in stripes of vivid red and yellow. A cut-out […] reveals an interior done up like the Actaeon on opening night, all velvet curtains […] and paper scenery.

[…] a man in a green […] jacket leans against the […] tarpaulin […]

1The Aggrieved Professor […] speaks. "You're not to laugh at me, now. She promised you wouldn't. Not like those rotters in Concord Square."

The Implacable Detective pats his arm. "We won't. Now let's go over the particulars."

2[…]it looks and sounds remarkably like a crouching man waving a dead hunk of wood and fabric around.

The Implacable Detective's eyes are serious. "I know how it looks, but I can attest to the Professor being really very good until this incident. […]

3"[…]I still had everything I needed for the show[…] when I set up to perform, Mr Punch was dead in me hands."

He looks you square in the face. His eyes are slightly red. "I'm telling you. Someone killed 'im."

4"[…]it's not right, attacking a fellow's livelihood like this."
