may be compared with some actual
types.
One of the men we have in mind fell
from the mainyard and broke his left
arm before he had been at sea month
on his first voyage as an apprentice.
On the return voyage from San Fran
cisco he fell from the same yard and
broke one Of his legs. The vessel was
wrecked in a gale off the southwest
coast of Ireland, and this unhappy
youth, fato profugus, was saved, with
three others, out Of crew Of twenty
six, only, however, to find that his
next ship, laden with coal, took fire
on the other side Of Cape Horn and had
to be abandoned by her men, who we're
six days in their boats before home
ward-bound ship picked them up.
His third vessel ran ashore at the en-
trance to Hong Kong harbor in her
hurry to get inside before a Yankee,
with whom she was In company. When
our friend found his fourth ship dis
masted in a cyclone In the Indian
ocean, he came to the conclusion that
sea life, which he had been quite pre-
pared to like, was too exciting for
him, and he decided forthwith, pro-
vided he got safely out Of that scrape,
to leave 1t to those with better luck.

friend Of the United States Of America.
He was with Washington and his COM
patriots during their great struggle
for independence, and was also with
the union army through the entire
war to maintain that independence
with union and liberty. Your petit

this request, as well on your own ac-
count as that of the multitude Of bis

industrious poor people Code chosen
people,, many Of whom are now pray

Unquestlonably this king has done
more to establish and maintain free
government on this continent and to
make the United States Of America a
respectable nation than any other king,
and 80 we as individuals and as ma
