text_original: In earlier days, indeed, he had readily received the family estates bequeathed and econo  to him by the kinsmen who had prized his micai, dutiful affection, but now he would take no legacy save from the childless, and discouraged the mor  bid whim of those who used his name to gratify some spleen against their natural heirs. The eagerness of fiscal agents and informers died away, and the dreaded name of treason was seldom, if ever, heard.
