The Story Continued by Walter Hartright
- Walter is horrified by Mrs. Catherick and decides that she's toxic. He wants nothing more to do with her. Good call, Walt.
- He gets a more welcome letter from Marian, but the news isn't good: Marian has had to move to a new place and tells Walter to hurry home.
- His last day in Knowlesbury involves another visit with the magistrate for the last bit of the inquest.
- Mr. Merriman is there.
- Walter is impatient to leave for London.
- He decides he's going to let everything with Percival go, since the man is dead and the secret should just die too.
- Walter finally heads back to London after receiving one more note: this time it's a friendly one from Mr. Dawson, offering what help he can.
