Be to his faults a little blind. He was a passionate and jealous, but an affectionate husband He and his wife, who had a temper of her own, were continually quarrelling, but, with the exception of one disastrous occasion, they soon made up their domestic squabbles and friends again as we always are. He was a good son, and he was on the whole a kind and generous brother.
