Held to Answer is a novel by Peter Clark MacFarlane. MacFarlane was a novelist known for his humorous and political works. Excerpt: “Yet when the huge stenographer came back, and with another scuffling of clumsy feet stooped to retrieve the litter about Heitmuller's revolving chair, he seemed so regretful and his features lighted with such a helplessly apologetic smile that even his awkwardness appeared commendable, since it was so obviously seasoned with the grace of perfectly good intent.”
