MIRACLE OF MERCY.

they are still fresh in my recollection, and

them to paper, were there not SO many
living witnesses, to the truth of the facts
narrated; some of them OF the g, eutest re-
spectability, and even sanctioned by Com
modcre Rodgers The storyis considered

be lost therefore proceed to the task,

firm it. ..i. ID. r.... : =.
