THE LETTER.
4 n 7 father was Colonel Grosve-
NJ nor of the Confederate army
during the civil war. On
L General Lees staff was an
Italian named the principi di Monte
Blanca. Rich titled. real noble. he
was at heart an adventurer, a word
greatly abused these inglorious DAYS.
My father was cut from the same pat
tern, wild and reckless spirit III
those crowded times The two became
friends such as you and Mr.. Merrthcw
are. Their exploits became famous
My father was also rich and a man of
foresight. His real wealth was in for
eign securities. mines. oils. steel
steamships. When the war terminated
the prince prevailed upon my father to
return with him to Italy. Italy itself
was in turmoil II Re GalantuomO.
that Piedmontese hunter. Vittorio
Emanuele, wished to liberate Venice
from the grasp of Austria, to Wrest
temporal power from the Vatican and
to send the French troops back to
France. Well, he accomplished all
these things, and both my father and
the prince were with him up to the
time he entered the Quirinal After
victory, peace My father invested in
villas and palaces and settled down to
end his days in the Venetian palace on
the Grand canal.
Then my father. still young. remem-
Der, fell in love with the daughter Of
Venetian noble. 1t was a happy
union shortly after the prince also
married. He was, with the exception
Of my father. the most lovablc man
ever knew-brave, kindly. impetuous.
honorable, witty and wise. 1t does
not seem possible that such a father
should have such son.
There came IA great day, A young
prince was born and the rough king
stood as his godfather. Later ! added
my feeble protest, at the cost OF my
mothers life. As grew up became
