I took the whole blame on myself, and insisted on being confronted with the unknown person who had informed against us.

The council met this by a question:--'Is the information, in any particular, false ?' Neither of us could deny that it was, in every particular, true.

Hearing this, the council decided that there was no need, on our own showing, to confront us with the informer.

From that day to this, I have never known who the spy was.

Neither Mellicent nor I had an enemy in the Community.
