L35-2：Justice was done 

Towards midday,

a girl heard a muffled cry coming from behind one of the walls.

As the cry was repeated several times,

she ran to tell the manager who promptly rang up the fire-brigade.

The cry had certainly come from one of the chimneys,

but as there were so many of them,

the firemen could not be certain which one it was.

They located the right chimney by tapping at the walls and listening for the man's cries.

After chipping through a wall which was eighteen inches thick,

they found that a man had been trapped in the chimney.

As it was extremely narrow,

the man was unable to move,

but the firemen were eventually able to free him by cutting a huge hole in the wall.

The sorry-looking, blackened figure that emerged,

at once admitted that he had tried to break into the shop during the night but had got stuck in the chimney.

He had been there for nearly ten hours.

Justice had been done even before the man was handed over to the police. '
