for some one of experience and author

to say that. although the countess was
a conSenting party to the truSteeship.
1t was desirable that he should fuEnish
precise details.
The income of the countess. he went

expended. aud the debts now amounted

were abOut TO return TO their post. and
requesting that the United States au-
