"No,Sir" "Did you ever hear the deceased speak of her alleged midnight visitor,Kit Marlowe?" "No,Sir,never." "Never.Thank you" "After you have signed off at the railway depot why didn't you turn your steps towards the house in Craven Square?" "Because,Sir, I thought her bloke would be there" "And why did you think that?" "Well,Sir,I knew he had a round with her when my back was turned" "Thank you,Mr Heal" "No questions,My Lord" "Call for John Craigie Glenn" "I swear by Almighty God,that the evidence I shall give shall be the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth" "Your name is John Craigie Glenn?" "That's right" "Or Jocko to your friends?" "I,you can call me that rather,I never mind" "Very friendly of you,thank you" "And now,Mr Glenn, will you tell the court if Herbert Logan came to Glasgow on the night in question?" "I,he did" "And will you tell us why?" "He came to do a job with me" "A burglary to put it bluntly" "Put it to the hear what you like i,Sir, I don't mind" "And you came forward as a witness, even though you are a burglar, self confessed?" "Will you tell us why?" "Because I am not a man to save my skin by letting a laddie swing for somebody else" "Just because you english policemen don't do that job" "I find the witness's comment on the police superfluous" "I believe in that" "Now,Mr Glenn,is Logan not a friend of yours?" "Ay,he's a decent one" "And every word he said in here has been Gospel truth" "May one ask precisely who it is that you know what he has been saying here?" "I,you mean?" "Then what is the answer Mr Glenn?" "Perhaps I can provide the answer for you, the answer is that you both agreed upon the story you would tell in court" "Ay,that's right.Unless emergency we would both agree to tell the truth" "One final question ,Mr Glenn,am I not right in thinking that at least on one occasion,if not more, you have been convicted in the past of perjury?" "Maybe I have,but not this time" "Regrettably I cannot share your confidence" "I tell you the the truth and nothing but the truth,so help me God" "Thank you" "Have you been in at it?" "We had a pint together many times but as I tell his blooming Lordship, if ever I see a man look murderer, that was Herb that night" "Oh,Frankie you would have laughed to see her name in headlines,hey" "I'll tell you something, Herb is for the drop" "When that lawyer fellow get started on him he has not got a bin out" "He is in a rot,sorry I'm telling you" "Now,Logan,you admit that when you told the police that you never visited the house that night you lied.I put it to you that your statement that you went to Glasgow to commit a burglary is false as well" "No,Sir,it isn't" "I put it to you that you murdered Frances Ketchen,that you panicked that then by chance found your way on to a Glasgow train" "No,Sir,I never killed her" "You admit that you quarreled with her in the Public House that night?" "Yes,Sir" "Then presumably you went around to found Ketchen's house and said "I am very sorry I was rude"" "Yes,Sir,I did just that" "Remarkably magnanimously of you wasn't it?" "And then,no doubt, this non existent midnight visitor this figment of your feeble mind,Kit Marlowe, daft as he,draft in and murdered her" "Yes,Sir" "Kit Marlowe,Logan,was a poet of considerable genius, who flourished in the days of Queen Elizabeth and although,no doubt, his moral was in tune with those licentious time one hardly thinks it likely his spirit would return to earth" "to visit Frances Ketchen in a tenement in Lenten town" "And yet without one single solemn shred of evidence, that is what you are asking the jury to believe" "That Frances Ketchen died from strangulation at the hands of someone who doesn't exist" "But he does exist,I swear, he does exist,Kit Marlowe does exist" "Take him back" "Mr Hall?" "Yes,Sir Huntley" "My Lord,members of the jury," "It is not for us to consider the possibility or even the probability that Herbert Logan murdered Frances Ketchen" "Our sole consideration must be whether on the evidence the charge that Herbert Logan murdered Frances Ketchen has been proved" "In my submission it has not" "Herbert Edward Logan" "Members of the jury,are you agreed upon your verdict?" "We are" "Do you find the prisoner Herbert Edward Logan guilty or not guilty of the willful murder of Frances Ketchen?" "Guilty" "And that is the verdict of you all?" "Yes" "Prisoner at the bar you stand convicted of the crime of wilful murder" "Have you anything to say why the court should not give you judgment according to law?" "No,I've never done it,I've never done it, on my oath I've never done it" "No" "Oh yeah,oh yeah,oh yeah" "My Lord,the King's justices do strictly charging about all persons to keep silence,while sentence of death is passing on the prisoner at the bar upon paying of imprisonment, God Save the King" "Herbert Edward Logan the jury of your countrymen have found you guilty of murder" "The sentence of the Court is that you'll be taken from this place to a lawful prison and thence to a place of execution and that you 'll be there hanged by the neck until you be dead" "And that your body be afterward buried within the precinct of the prison in which you were last confined before your execution" "And may the Lord have mercy upon your soul" "Amen" "I should have seen that one" "That makes us quit,say" "Have you got anything to read?" "Yes Sir,I can't see it taking it in though,Sir" "I gather that you have not been sleeping too well" "No Sir.That church clock keeps me awake" "That girl of yours has called again." "Do you still refuse to see her?" "Yes" "I see" "I'll tell her not to come here anymore" "Did she send those?" "Don't you like them?" "Not if she" "All right I'll see her then" "God lad" "Herbert" "Is it lonely?" "No.I've got company" "Don't hate me Herb?" "I don't hate you,that what makes it worse" "But why did you do it Rosie?" "Why?" "Those people said,got scared" "I know you didn't do it,I knew in the afternoon in that church yard" "It was" "Yes,I say it was.Still you got your hundred quid" "I haven't touched it" "I gave it all to your petition" "You should have a kept a quid or two back for the reed" "Herbert,don't.I knew it is all my fault" "I love you" "Cut it out.I can't stand it if you" "Hear,take her out,take her away" "Take her away" "Whatever happen to us,I'll always love you" "And although I did not kill Frances Ketchen" "I was in her room which I described above after Herbert Logan left that night to catch the Glasgow train" "It's signed Kit Marlowe" "Well I'm there?" "It isn't evidence.The Home Secretary can't act on that" "I'm afraid you're right" "Because you've always be convinced that Logan didn't do it haven't you?" "Yes,always" "Still you had a too good a case" "Why can't the fellow come forward?" "They'll never do" "Probably someone with a place in life to loose" "How is that petition doing?"

"I know who was with Frankie that night" "A writer named Drew who was with her,all right" "You said he was there,he must have known that,after she has done to him" "You got no proof about this Drew" "The cops would laugh at you" "Detective Inspector Benstead don't do, the cop that picked me up,he listens to me" "Always get's a bit too sentimental when the copper who nicked you does" "Suppose Drew had been with Frankie, just supposing he knew who it was had done her in" "We got to force it out of him, see then I got what I want" "I'll tell you something.That fellow Drew would talk one day.I'll make him" "Sure as I'm standing here" "You are wasting your time,mate,drop it" "Here,have this beer" "Until you find your wallet" "Yeah,when I can get it,I was scavenger, not an engine driver" "I'll say it's been tough for you,pretty awful if you've never done it" "There's only one thing kept me going the certainty that one day I'd find the real murderer" "Look mate,I always thought that you've done it" "What else was I to think?"

"We go by the tunnel,saves time" "I know the road" "Road is not here,this is our bit" "Here,hold this while I light my pipe" "So you killed Frankie" "Frankie is dead,I won't wake her up again" "Now I just make certain she doesn't" "Wake" "There is someone I got to do right by" "Get the police quick,quick" "And he confessed?" "Yeah, he confessed but even that it is not good enough" "Detective Inspector Benstead said lots of people,when they are dying, confess of murders they never did" "I've got to get corroborative proof he says" "How would you get it?"

"Yeah" "This way Mr Drew" "Why not sit down?" "The seats are free" "It was Jim Heal then?" "Yes it was,he confessed in the presence of witnesses" "Will that clear you?" "No.Not yet it doesn't.I need proof" "In a word,just one word from someone else" "Who?" "You,Mr Drew" "Jim Heal said he killed her because she was with another man" "All you got to do is to say it was you" "It was you,was it not?" "Logan,you accuse me of murder now you are accusing being with an unknown woman in a room I've never seen" "Haven't you Mr Drew?" "Look.Look around" "Can't you hear her?" "Can't you hear laughing the way she did?" "Sorry for nothing,Frankie, didn't she say that?" "Didn't she?" "If you are not going to talk I'll bet there's something here that will" "Frankie had a hideaway somewhere somewhere where she kept her valuables, like under the boards maybe" "Didn't you never give her something,Mr Drew?" "I'll bet I could find something if I look" "Have you read Heal's confession?" "Indeed I have.I've got a copy" "May I see it?" "Sure,I'll get it" ""You are writing old funny things," "I'll put it somewhere safe read it when I'm old,and you're famous"" "Is this what you are looking for?" "This poem you wrote" "What's it got to do with it?" "Proof you've been in this room before" "We are quite alone" "And that's how it's always going to be until" "Just you and me until you want to tell the truth" "I was here that night" "But I could never make you understand why I let you suffer like this" "I was young ambitious,my life then was so sheltered,narrow minded" "I had not only myself to think of" "Then once I started it became more difficult" "Worse,worse" "I know I can't make it up to you but you can have all the money you need" "Money.I don't want your money" "Logan,it's my wife and children against yours" "I gone so far I can't go back" "I'm not going to speak" "You are not going to?" "I'll do anything else you ask me but not that" "Ah,Mr Drew maybe now you'll feel some of the things I felt for 16 years" "In the end justice has caught up with you" "I wonder how many of us would have the courage" "Hello,brother.Is everything ookiedookie?" "What?" "Yes it is" "I must.." "I say" "When the first leaves fall" "Sure,sure,thanks a lot" "Rosie" "Rosie" "I'm cleared Rosie" "Herb,wonderful" "I think I got to cry" "You are terrible feeble Rosie, crying is not going to top me" "Crying,when I got a proof I'm innocent" "I bet you have hysterics when I get my pardon,love" "Subtitles by Seglora"
