Guy Mannering Volume I - Chapter X
from The Walter Scott Library Hosted by Sir Walter Scott
In which the diligent Sheriff of the county conducts a meticulous investigation into the suspicious death of Francis Kennedy, uncovering perplexing evidence of violence and struggle near the precipice where the body was found, alongside signs of a possible desperate affray involving several persons and the mysterious disappearance of the child Harry Bertram. The inquiry draws suspicion towards both the infamously bold smugglers and the resentful tenants recently evicted from Derncleugh, while the enigmatic figure of Meg Merrilies emerges as a concerned yet unconvincing witness, leaving the haunting incident veiled in uncertainty and local superstition.
