Excerpt from The Inheritance, Vol. 1 of 3France, where Mr. St. Clair's mind soon settled into that state which acquires its name from the character of its possessor, and, according to that, is called forti tude, resignation, contentment, or stupidity. There, too, they soon sunk into that oblivion which is some times the portion of the living as well as the dead. His father's death, which happened some years after, made no alteration in his circumstances. The patri mony to which he expected to succeed was settled on his children, should he have any, and a slender life annuity was his only portion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
