"Listen to me, listen attentively. The porter and Koch and

Pestryakov and the other porter and the wife of the first porter

and the woman who was sitting in the porter's lodge and the man

Kryukov, who had just got out of a cab at that minute and went in

at the entry with a lady on his arm, that is eight or ten

witnesses, agree that Nikolay had Dmitri on the ground, was lying

on him beating him, while Dmitri hung on to his hair, beating

him, too. They lay right across the way, blocking the

thoroughfare. They were sworn at on all sides while they 'like

children' (the very words of the witnesses) were falling over one

another, squealing, fighting and laughing with the funniest

faces, and, chasing one another like children, they ran into the

street. Now take careful note. The bodies upstairs were warm, you

understand, warm when they found them!
