"Wholly; unnecessary severity," remarked Tom; "you always overdo the thing. But that man isn't dead." As if to confirm his words, the burglar just then opened his eyes and looked inquiringly around him. "He looks dazed," I whispered to Tom.

"He has occasion to look dazed if you hit him with your beloved poker," rejoined Tom, pushing me aside and applying restoratives in his turn; "put it where it belongs, and go get me some brandy or whisky, or something of the kind. We'll have to get this fellow on his feet before we call the police." "I I was mistaken, sir," said the burglar in a feeble voice, but with a very decided manner. "I was mistaken in the house. It appears that the same latchkey unlocks both doors, and I got the wrong one." "Yes, I think you did," rejoined Tom, emphatically, and eyeing bun with suspicion. The burglar managed to scramble to his feet, although I could see he was still dizzy from the encounter with my poker.
