and on being informed, said he could

to see his apartments which were TO be

Their they would answer Tor their resi-
dence whom they should be married.
Having satisfied her scruples, & induc-

honor, he finally prevailed upon her to

was effected. She returned home that
night, but left it the next, al the soil.

when her father, having discovered
where she was Qor he lad been kept
ignorant all along of her intimacy with

commander of the forces, lord Forbes.
The defendant becoming alarmed in
consequence Of that application, at a
late hour in the evening, turned her
ou, into the street, and abandoned her.
His apology Tor Thus cruelty and treat
ing her, was, that his lawyers inform ed
him he had acted wrong.
When her seducer informed her of
his purpose, she demonstrated, but in
vain-in an agony Of distress she be-
sought his mercy she reminded him
that she was his victim; that under a
promise of marriage, which she be-
lieved, he had seduced from her IA

look 10 her seducer for protection. To
this appeal to the defendants compass

In this extremity Of suffering she
prayed TO the Almighty to direct her,
and she again went back TO her fathers
house, where an old woman, who was
preparing TO go to bed, opened the
door, and let her in. From that peri>
cd she continued 10 live under the pro-
