The sapphire Lady Carwitchet wears is only an excellent imitation, and I have seen it with my own eyes is the one bearing Bogaerts's mark, the Greek Beta." Some years ago I engaged passage from Charleston, S. C., to the city of New York, in the fine packet-ship Independence, Captain Hardy. I found that we were to have a great many passengers, including a more than usual number of ladies.
I fidgeted and fumed and argued with myself till I found I should have no peace of mind without a look at the stone in my possession, and I actually went to the safe and took the case out. The sapphire certainly looked different by lamplight. I sat and stared, and all but overpersuaded my better judgment into giving it a verdict. Bogaerts's mark I suddenly remembered it.
