He says there is little doubt that the

Of her fathers representations, backed
by some odious story. He traces the
conduct Of the wife, in buying up the
husbands memoir and destroying it,
and asks If the evidence OF the party
destroying can be accepted. The same
act Of depriving Byron of the opportu
nifty for self justifica ton deprived the
wife OF the right to advance fresh
charges. The writer feels certain that
this will the ultimate verdict of the
public.
