...depressed, Mitchell reportedly does not talk about it to friends, though they find him looking grayer and older. He has assured them that he has an adequate amount of money for his defense and his family's needs, though he is no millionaire. But not even his friends can say what happens when they are not around and John and Martha alone must confront his besmirched reputation and his shattered career...

As the court began its new term last week, their absence seemed to have left "the nine black beetles" not only fewer but somehow grayer-less distinct, less vigorous, even, for the moment, less important. Consideration of the most significant cases has been postponed and, with the unexpected withdrawal of Virginia Representative Richard Poff as a potential nominee, it now seemed possible that many weeks might pass before two new Justices took their seats...
