day for the funeral, bat when that time

worpcithosol, and an eminent medical

a critical examination, prononaced. the

many stories broached to him, which had
forced themselves on his mind. He bad
&nee investigated them and found them
in every ., instance to be of that clam of
Mendoza which every public man ant
fared. In the same place where he bad
made the assertion, ho felt it due to that

self to make, as far as he could, repara
tion. •
