a recent verdict holds that a young
woman committed suicide because her
character was assailed by gossip. It

lived and was widely known, that the
charges lightly made were wholly
without foundation.

other, and such hint, in the mouth

repeats 1T, becomes statement Of
fact. Thus is reputation ruined, and
thus self-respecting people, having
lost that which they value most high
ly, are driven to despair
