He could not understand the defense letting the case go to the jury without their putting more stress on Mr. Howell 's story . But we were to understand that soon , and many other things . Mr. Holcombe told me that evening of learning from John Bellows of the tattooed name on Jennie Brice and of how , after an almost endless search , he had found the man who had cut the name away . At eight o'clock the door-bell rang . Mr. Reynolds had gone to lodge , he being an Elk and several other things , and much given to regalia in boxes , and having his picture in the newspapers in different outlandish costumes . Mr. Pitman used to say that man , being denied his natural love for barbaric adornment in his every-day clothing , took to the different fraternities as an excuse for decking himself out . But this has nothing to do with the door-bell .
