Before the ship TO whose crew Mr.
Lockhar', (for that was the sailors name)
belonged was ready again to sail, news
came that considerable sum of money
had fallen 10 him by the death of an uncle,
who had left large estate and no family
His wife beiEg still feeble, he concluded
not to 60 TO sea again, and after little
time, opened small shop, the avails Of
which nearly supported his IiuIe family,
and afforded them the means OF good ed
acaIion. Philip Lockhart, the poor match
boy, was now sent TO the same school
which William attended, and they grew up
intimate friends.
But by and by, misfortune came upon
WilIilm's uncle. His debtors failed, and
his affairs became serously embarrassed.
He had large family 10 provide for, and
knew not how to give William the advan-
taees he had intended. But that six-pen
ny loaf was never forgotten by Philip
Lockhart and his mother. William was
nov sixteen years old, trustY boy and
had acquired good English education.
Mr. Lockhart had distant relative recent
y established in a mercantile house in the
city, man of good business habits
and pjous man. Through Mr. LIS. in
f1ence William was taken into his em>
ployment, much to the satisfaction of his
uncle and all concerned. BY his faith

employer who in few years, made him
his partner in business and he soon be-
came united TO him by another lie, for he
married his only daug hter, an at1ectionate
and excellent girl. need not add that
William was always happy and beloved,
for he always carried out the same benev-
client principle that acrualed him when he
bought the six'penny loaf He was a sim
cere christian and friend of the poor,
and was especially careful to seek out and
protect the orphan and friendless.

so spasmodic the doctor could not control them,
and for five days and nights continued TO bleed,
until there was no blood to run; when it ceased It
left me so weak could scarcely breathe or STIR.
