Shirley was invited to the private room by his brother. "I want to loaf around for a week or two," the veteran explained.

"Oh, Leonore, I will begin a new life; I will die to my ancient self, to vanity, to error, to self-love.

His death in the great hills, after a most courageous battle against an overwhelming force, brought to an end a life that would have been worth much to the islands in after years.
