Pedro, and there left, with the others who
had accompanied him, to find home in thai
land of strangers. t .'!.'L
San Pedro, il may be known, is a bleak
barren, bluff point, running out into the blue
waters of the Pacific, on which no verdnre il
TO be seen, and but one solitary abode of
man, rising amidst the desola.on which sur
rounds 1t. The Pueblo de los Angeles is sit
uated ten1eagues distant,wi one farm house
between the one on the point and those the
town. The mission of San Gabriel lies yet
farther on, some three or four lehgues;where,
at that time, might be found, perhaps three or
four hundred converted Indians. 1oratE
But our hero as he may be called, never
left the beach on which he first landed. A.
lone and fi'iendess, there he remained, an j.
solated being, till life ceased TO animate his
frame. True il il, that several times he was
Induced, and once or twice forced, to venture
as far as the Puebla, and even the mission of
San Gabriel; but he always, as soon as Mt lib
erty, returned and resumed his old station OH
the beach, or fixed himself on the rocks
which hung around the Point. And there he
might always be seen, a solitary outcast, as 1t
were, and more constantly when the sun was
going down, with his eyes gazing on that ce-
lestial orb as il sunk into the western horizon,
a direction which he well knew pointed TO the
lost hut never forgotten. home ofhis nativity.
With difficulty he sustained the wants of
nature by fishing about the rocks, gathering
muscles, and sometimes receiving scanty
of corn from the house on the Point,
or a few pence from a passing stranger.
He studiously avoided, as far as possi-
BILE, all intercourse with his fellow man
and sought to live an die in solitude; and
so did he continue to live a life which
appeared burthen to him,till one
as the sun rose, not two years past,
his body was found on the beach stiffened
corse, stretched out, and bleaching,asit were,
in the white foam of the surf, which was
thrown about his lifeless remains as the
mighty wave broke on the shore.
1t is presumed his death was accidental
that whilst searching for shell fish, in the
night, amongst the cliffs, he must have fallen
from an eminence, and thus terminated his
solitary existence.-BoSton Atlas.
