dressed in the deepest mourning has filtted maces the
arena of public life, and it hae bun known that she was
a maiden lady who had devoted the whole of her life to
the vindication of her father's memory. While she was

had bean arrested on a charge of warder, had been tried,
found guilty, end elevated on the testimony of wltnemes
who had afterward, admitted that they were mistaken.
