notwithstanding Mr. Walsh's unfavorable
opirjion of them, I think you will find often
piquant and worth; upon the whole, an alien

al interest which they possess, they will have
the Iffect of, diminishing, though not entirely
removing the odium, which he brought upou'
himself by his conduct to his wife. j
