litv and rank in society, may afford the emnpletest
satklaction to the piThfie at large,'4;tl; regard to

that every part of the room and bOuse shall un-
dergo the minutest. invemig-atiou, that the fiunily
and usual attendants shall be removed to a (Hs..
tanee, and that noone • shall approach her, dnthig

statement of the whole series of transuetions.
