Note 16 — APPENDIX.
Reading edition
Perault unhesitatingly stated to Monday’s face, that he had written two letters, to St. Domingo, and that he (Perault) had gone to Vanderhorsts wharf with him, in April or May last, to give them in charge of a black cook on board of a schooner bound to that island. After Monday was so charged, he confessed that the fact was so, and that he had been induced to conceal it under an apprehension that if it were known he had been guilty of such an act all chance of mercy would be denied him.
