We continued firm friendsuntil the night before he left college, when the quarrel, which I donot mean to particularize, took place; from which period we never met, and all correspondence ceased between us. I heard, that in after-years, he made a love connexion; but I never learned the particulars from anyone but your uncle Robert; and he did not inform me, that Edward hadleft a son--nor can I comprehend his motive for concealing the fact. " Sir Alexander paused and looked earnestly in my face. ...I felt the bloodrush to my temples.
"I do not doubt your veracity, young sir. You are too like the man Iloved so long and well, for me to question your origin. But are you_certain_ that you are Edward Moncton's _legitimate_ son?" "I feel no doubt upon the subject; my heart tells me that I am hislawful representative; and I trust that heaven will one day enable meto substantiate my claims. " This was said with a vehemence that broughtthe tears into my eyes.
"Does Robert Moncton admit them?" "No. " "On what grounds?" "He affirms, that no certificate of my mother's marriage can be found, and without this important document, the law will not acknowledge me asEdward Moncton's legitimate son.
