him during the last days ofhis illness. He
was about nineteen years Of age, and most

Lothian We are indebted for much valuable
assistance in procuring our brothers dis

deep grief to assist an entire stranger is proof
that he has noble heart. Towards him we
shall always entertain the liveliest emotions
of gratitude and respect. To Major Robert

under great obligations, for had we not had his
active assistance we doubt whether we should
have succeeded. An introduction at head
