Excerpt from A Good Match, the Heiress of Drosberg, and the Cathedral Chorister, Vol. 3 of 3 As they proceeded through the crowded street, vague rumours reached their ears of the King's murder; but every report they heard contra dicted the other, as nothing was yet known for certain. They passed the Durazzo palace, and here the populace was gathered in multitudes, h0ping, perhaps, to obtain more intelligence near the abode of the Queen's sister; or per haps their object was to hail her as their Queen for it was believed' by some that Joanna had committed suicide after murdering her husband; and Long live Queen Maria was shouted occasionally by some of the more impatient among the people.
