Synopsis

The rich moonlight that now shone through the windows streamed on little that it could invest with poetical attraction. The room was small though not squalid in its character and appliances. The bed-curtains of a dull chintz were drawn back and showed the form of a man past middle age propped by pillows and bearing on his countenance the marks of approaching death.
