If she had warned him because of Rivero's inquiries concerning Despujol then she could also warn the latter. Again it was curious that she met Sanz, and did not meet Despujol. Further, it was a strange fact that the pair of Spanish criminals had not travelled together unless there was some reason for it. Perhaps there was.

In his eyes the wealthy friend of Spain could do no wrong. Did not his King invite him to conference, in ignorance, of course, of his true character? I was not surprised at Rivero's attitude, yet I had hoped that Despujol's arrest would be effected without the knowledge of De Gex and his sinister medical friend.

In 1780 there were 243 heads of families in the district; the town proper had 9 houses and a church. With regard to the remaining settlements mentioned in Governor Bravo de Rivero's list, there are no reliable data.

You may as well tell the truth, and things may go better with you. He was Despujol's friend, as well as yours was he not?" "Yes," the dark-faced man admitted sullenly. "We have both done his dirty work and Moroni assisted him." "You sent that soap to Mr. Garfield eh?" The man under arrest with Rivero's pistol still pointed at him nodded in the affirmative.

It was that attempted crime which aroused Señor Rivero's activities which have had the effect of ridding Spain of one of its most notorious assassins." I read the report twice. So the defiant Despujol was dead, and poor Rivero had sustained injuries! Nothing was said of the powerful financier's friendship with the bandit.
