Vesey now realized in a moment that all his plans were disclosed, and immediately he destroyed any papers that might prove to be incriminating.

He had been staying with friends at Newport at the time. Had Mrs. Marteen been there? Of course! He took up the incriminating documents again and thoroughly mastered their contents, every turn of phrase, every between-the-line inference. Accidents could happen; he must be prepared for the worst.
