0Normally, we do not write 01i 00into02i 00 sentence fragments; we try to correct by eliminating them. Your first sentence is a fine sentence (except for the extra 's'-- Richard III murdered two 'princes', not a 'princess'), but the second is a fragment. 02br 02br 00You need, for instance, to unite them into a single sentence by deleting the first period, adding the words 'but I have', and then converting the capital 'F' of 'Found' into a lower case 'f'.
