after her uncle, Levi Fessenden. Her
father died at Quaddick, Conn, and she
was wi him all through mis- Illness.
Levi was also living at home. There
never was any deatbbed confession by
her father as stated by Levi. she knew
OF Lewis suddenly becoming rich, but he
never explained it to her. She had re-
celvpd gifts from him, but only in
broiherly way. she never received any
thing for keeping any secret. she thought
Lev must be out OF his IN md.
