The Sea shall giue up lis Dead,-On
leaving the barber of ST. Mary's short
time since, the people in the boa, saw a
large red chest on the wafer, towards
which they directed their boats course,
and succeeded in obtaining the chest.
This on being opene. was found to
contain the corpse of young and beau,
ful female, clothed in rich silk dress,
and having three solid gold rings upon her
fingers, And this was all that could be
learned concerning her; who she has
been, or the circumstances OF her death,
remain to us still sealed; i, is most likely
however, that the fair young creature had
died at sea, and her body being commit
ted to the waters OF the deep, which have
thus yielded il up again.
|; not only remains for us to add that
the chest, with the body in il. just as il
lay when first opened, was consigned to
the grave with the appropriate and solemn
rites of Christian burial, in ST. Mary s.,
Newfoundland Post.
