terminated his sufferings, he exclaimed, "O! what a miserable
death after all my hair-breadth escapes I" - Mr. Walker served
for the greater part of his life in the navy, and enjoyed a good

and the same number with frigates, twoof the former beingthe
memorable sieges of Copenhagen and Algiers. His wife, who
