to part with them on account of series
of misfortunes in her family which she
feared were attributable to the gems,

them l found that they were merely i'm
itations. A few weeks ago had in my
possession three seashells which had
been transformed into opal. Their orig

out of the rock by which they were in
ilosed, and the precious substance was
deposited by water in place of the lime,
