I remember the fellow well, a handsome chap enough, but with a wicked unforgiving eye. and without one Ounce of gratitude in his composition. Not satisfied with having ousted our friend here from his natural position, he tries to poison his fathoC's mind agyinst him, so as to to- made heir in bin stead; but failing La that. and always in want of money for certain diversions of hie own, he robbed his employer to the extent of some twenty thousand dollars.
