My father always cherished the idea that he would atone for his error by leaving his possessions to us; that letter informs us that he has bequeathed every penny to the other relation, with the exception of thirty guineas, to be divided between St. John, Diana, and Mary Rivers, for the purchase of three mourning rings.
Mi padre esperaba que el tío nos dejase sus bienes, pero esta carta nos informa de que los ha dejado íntegros a ese otro pariente, excepto treinta guineas que nos lega a los tres para lutos.
