MIRIAM MONFORT:
A NOVEL.
BY THE AUTHOR OF
"THE HOUSEHOLD OF BOUVERIE."
Act itself o'er anew for men to judge;

Since, how heart moves brain, and how both move hand,
What mortal ever in entirety saw?
Yet helping us to all we seem to hear,
For, how else know we save by worth of word?"
BROWNING, "The Ring and the Book"
NEW YORK:
D. APPLETON AND COMPANY,
549 & 551 BROADWAY.
1873.
DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to the memory of one most dear, who saw it grow to completion with pleasure and approbation, during the last happy summer of a life since darkened by misfortune. Peace be his!

And, lo, the abyss! and thither am I moving;
I have no power within me—but to move."

MONFORT HALL.
CHAPTER I.
My father, Reginald Monfort, was an English gentleman of good family, who, on his marriage with a Jewish lady of wealth and refinement, emigrated to America, rather than subject her and himself to the commentaries of his own fastidious relatives, and the incivilities of a clique to which by allegiance of birth and
