After an hour or more, he awoke and said to
me. Captain, we shall be relieved this very

When / asked what reason he had for
saying so, he replied, that he had dreamed
that he was on board barque, and that she
was coming to our rescue. He described her
appearance and rig, and to our utter astonish-

Thereupon Mr.. Bruce related to them all
