It's a bit complicated. I had put an advertisement in the paper, searching for my mother, and two women had shown up claiming to be her, and so the way Detective Murdoch ascertained which was my mother (and also helped to out a pair of murderers) was to shoot me in the back.
Of course, I was wearing a garment that the bullet was unable to pierce, but when told that I would be an invalid, and that my pension was now gone, only my real mother stood by me.
