"In the meantime I'll proceed with my story, which I see interests you very much.

Well, Count, it seems that Michael Clear was an actor, who bore a strong resemblance to Mr.Vrain, save that he had not a scar on his face.

Vrain, at Bath, was always clean shaven; now he wears a long white beard, but that is neither here nor there.

Clear had a moustache, but when that was shaved off he looked exactly like Vrain.

For purposes of your own, which you can easily guess, you made the acquaintance of this man, a profligate and a drunkard, and proposed, for a certain sum of money to be paid to his wife, that he, Michael Clear, should personate Vrain and live in the Silent House in Geneva Square, under the name of Berwin.
