gives an account of the love adventures
of a young man of fine education, rare
beauty and manners of extraordinary
fascination. The names Of the parties
concerned are suppressed out of con-
sideration for the social position Of the
friends of the young man, but the
names Of the officers concerned in the
case, and Of the localities in which the
several scenes of the drama were en-
acted are given, and this is guaranty
that the accounts no fancy sketch
