incident in the Lancet: "A well dressed and

her OVID WORDS, p delicate one. young wo-
man, relative or friend Of hers, was entitled

Ing single, there was a prospect of her losing

appear she was DESTROYS OF finding some 'dy-
ing man, Of what position 1t mattered not, to
whom she might be formally married, and so
obtain the property, while at the same time
the link might be q slender one and soon
broken. This they had not been able TO man

accordingly sent over to London hospital,
