the task of disposing of my diamonds,
a small parcel at a time, so as not to flood the market. The reader may
gather some idea of the number of those diamonds when I say that now, at
the time of writing, this process is still going on, yet I have nearly
half of the original number left. The arrangement, although no doubt
exceedingly profitable to the firm of jewellers in question, has
provided me with a princely annual income, much of which has been spent
in restoring and extending Bella Vista, which is now one of the finest
and best-stocked estates in the whole of South Africa.

Need I add that she who was once known as Nell Lestrange has been for
many years the beloved and cherished mistress of the beautiful house
that replaced the one in which the tragedy of more than fifty years ago
occurred?
