I do not know what became of the maiden." Licorice disappeared. "The squire was not killed, I am sure," said Belasez to herself. "It is Father Bruno." Left alone, Belasez reviewed her very doubtful information.
As soon as I had paid for the licorice I continued my walk in the same direction, but saw nothing of the men, they having evidently stopped in some place to let me get ahead once more. In a short time I approached an inclosure over the gate of which was a sign that informed me I had come by accident direct to the wharf of the New York steamers.

The sun has gone down, and the heavens are covered with clouds." "Was my mother very angry after I went away?" It was not natural to speak of Licorice by any other name. "Don't mention it, Belasez!
