For some minutes no one spoke。 Diana then turned to me。

“Jane; you will wonder at us and our mysteries;” she said; “and think us hard…hearted beings not to be more moved at the death of so near a relation as an uncle; but we have never seen him or known him。 He was my mother’s brother。 My father and he quarrelled long ago。 It was by his advice that my father risked most of his property in the speculation that ruined him。 Mutual recrimination passed between them: they parted in anger; and were never reconciled。 My uncle engaged afterwards in more prosperous undertakings: it appears he realised a fortune of twenty thousand pounds。 He was never married; and had no near kindred but ourselves and one other person; not more closely related than we。 My father always cherished the idea that he would atone for his error by leaving his possessions to us; that letter informs us that he has bequeathed every penny to the other relation; with the exception of thirty guineas; to be divided between St。 John; Diana; and Mary Rivers; for the purchase of three mourning rings。 He had a right; of course; to do as he pleased: and yet a momentary damp is cast on the spirits by the receipt of such news。 Mary and I would have esteemed ourselves rich with a thousand pounds each; and to St。 John such a sum would have been valuable; for the good it would have enabled him to do。”
