What was Smythe mixed up in?Will shoved his way through the crowd, upper class gentlemen muttering words better left for the ghettoes of the East End, and even some ladies doing likewise.  But at the cry of police from the lead pursuer, a constable pacing about nervously at the base of a church off to Will's right whips his head around.  "I say, stop, man!" he shouts.  He runs down the sidewalk after Will, reaching for his shoulders.The Regent Street constable holds the ex-soldier until Diggory and his men arrive.</blockquote>
