Chapter III

[A letter from the same brief author addressed to the Reverend Arthur Warrington of Beldon, Suffolk.]

Glendalough, County Wicklow,
May 18th, 1905.

Reverend Sir,--Your request that I would favour you with such news as I may from time to time receive from my friend Henry Gastonard permits me to assure you that he is now established in Paris, and appears, by his diligent habit and assured gifts, to be doing all that will presently entitle him to the permanent possession of the fortune, conditionally bequeathed to him by his late father, Henry Gastonard, of London and Bordeaux.

My dear Sir,

Yours very faithfully,
The O’Connell of Glendalough.
