deceased's name, with the date of his death, and left him to moulder
with his native dust.]

At the mention of Bonville's fate, she sighed deeply. "It is true," said
she, "he has perplexed me with many vain fears, by misrepresentation,
but could he have lived, I would freely have forgiven him."

At the mention of Beauman's fate, Melissa sighed. "With how many
