TO the bunting field and the ring But however strong
may be the memory of individuals, the generous pub

impression Of the last and an opportunity occurring
for sharp and ready skrmisher in the close strug'
Giles between the Ccnserva,ive and Wing parties,
Clanricarde appeared upon the scene and showed 50
much quickness and expertness among the hgh'
troops OF debate which he belongs, th. he was re-
warded on Lord Durhams return, with the Embassy
TO ST. Petersburg where his tact and seducins man
ner made hi n special favori'e with Nicholas and the
fair Russian angels who gathered round his court.
Amer serving for some time in Russis, he retained
and took an active and audacious, rather than able,
part in the attacks on the Government OF Sir Robert
Peel. These servces 10 the Wings, aud his Patlla-

has been on terms of intimate friendship and We
doubt not that he would have been included IN the

closure of such scenes Of heaItrendlng lnfamy, as
those in witch the proceedings in the case of Handbook
and DeBurgh repre sent him playing leading part
At the period of young Clanricardes starting for
London, he left the poor Miss Kuy Kelly TRANSMITTED
into the wealthy Mrs. Handbook. Very shortly after
marriage come troubled specks appeared in the con-
nubial sky, which even provoked~the good, easy
Handbook who ash ed nothing more than his hounds,
and peace of mind, and mutton, and his evening
drought of Sneyds old IIsh claret HIS hounds were
poisoI ed. His purse was reft His menials were
bribed. HE house stripped of every comfort. When
Lord Normandy, as Lord Lieutenant, in passage
through the country, induced, through Lord
Clapricarde to accept the Inequalities of Carantrila,
the family residence he has often laughngly told that
warm water was introduced in the morning in horse
bucket and when some faint remOnstrances were
limited, soupplate obtained ts place.

in the first four years Of marriage, three daughters
were born to the House of Handbook, perhaps as
gentle and beautiful girls as ever adorned gentle
hone. From that time, 1929, to the year lsio Mrs.
Handbook bore no child. During the winter Of that
year Lord ClaDiicaIde returning from the Court
Of Nicbolas, gathered his own gay little court at
The old family seat have described, at Portumna.
Among the fair guests was his early love, Mrs. Hand

Sweet memoIies doubt, stole over their senses
and some tender passages came up, which were more
agreeable TO the lovers than the ladys lord Stung
BY what he conceived this dshonor, separation took
place Handbook repaired TO London and to Pans,
ard epdeavored TO teek in the haun's OF pleasure,
and an abandonment TO vice, forgetfnlness OF that
life which the pfamy of his wife had stamped with
wretchedness. But his steps were logged by hounds
laid on the scent by Clanricarde and his wife and the
very menials round his person we're in his pursuers
psy The hour of death was seized 10 introduce the
private III yscian of Clanricarde DIR. Paris, and
through his influence aided by unconscious nstru

his property 10 Lord Canricarde in trust for his three
daugh ers the lord being the guardian Of the property
the lady of those TO whom it bequeathed, the
being at the time Cabinet Minister OF England, the
other wife and mother.
Up to this hour il was believed that Mrs. Handbook
had but these three children; and to Cianricarde
only was it known that, long after her separation,
another child when and where born the world has
not yet been told appeared upon the scene. He was
q son called by the ClaHricarde family name of De
Bureh and in favor Of this offspring Of Illicit love-
this fer dsh mother conceived the plot Of making
away with her own and her husband children-chl-
