I
was
called
to
see
him
on
his
dying
bed
,
that
I
might
administer
to
him
the
consolations
of
religion
.
"
"
And
of
what
did
he
die
?
"
asked
Caderousse
in
a
choking
voice
.
"
Of
what
,
think
you
,
do
young
and
strong
men
die
in
prison
,
when
they
have
scarcely
numbered
their
thirtieth
year
,
unless
it
be
of
imprisonment
?
"
Caderousse
wiped
away
the
large
beads
of
perspiration
that
gathered
on
his
brow
.

"
But
the
strangest
part
of
the
story
is
,
"
resumed
the
abbe
,
"
that
Dantes
,
even
in
his
dying
moments
,
swore
by
his
crucified
Redeemer
,
that
he
was
utterly
ignorant
of
the
cause
of
his
detention
.
"
"
And
so
he
was
,
"
murmured
Caderousse
.
"
How
should
he
have
been
otherwise
?
Ah
,
sir
,
the
poor
fellow
told
you
the
truth
.
"
"
And
for
that
reason
,
he
besought
me
to
try
and
clear
up
a
mystery
he
had
never
been
able
to
penetrate
,
and
to
clear
his
memory
should
any
foul
spot
or
stain
have
fallen
on
it
.
"
And
here
the
look
of
the
abbe
,
becoming
more
and
more
fixed
,
seemed
to
rest
with
ill-concealed
satisfaction
on
the
gloomy
depression
which
was
rapidly
spreading
over
the
countenance
of
Caderousse
.

"
A
rich
Englishman
,
"
continued
the
abbe
,
"
who
had
been
his
companion
in
misfortune
,
but
had
been
released
from
prison
during
the
second
restoration
,
was
possessed
of
a
diamond
of
immense
value
;
this
jewel
he
bestowed
on
Dantes
upon
himself
quitting
the
prison
,
as
a
mark
of
his
gratitude
for
the
kindness
and
brotherly
care
with
which
Dantes
had
nursed
him
in
a
severe
illness
he
underwent
during
his
confinement
.
Instead
of
employing
this
diamond
in
attempting
to
bribe
his
jailers
,
who
might
only
have
taken
it
and
then
betrayed
him
to
the
governor
,
Dantes
carefully
preserved
it
,
that
in
the
event
of
his
getting
out
of
prison
he
might
have
wherewithal
to
live
,
for
the
sale
of
such
a
diamond
would
have
quite
sufficed
to
make
his
fortune
.
"
"
Then
,
I
suppose
,
"
asked
Caderousse
,
with
eager
,
glowing
looks
,
"
that
it
was
a
stone
of
immense
value
?
"
"
Why
,
everything
is
relative
,
"
answered
the
abbe
.
"
To
one
in
Edmond
's
position
the
diamond
certainly
was
of
great
value
.
It
was
estimated
at
fifty
thousand
francs
.
