Lowell. 1t kept up his fortitude even

very like one which he had read to his

On the Sunday following he. with

church to ascertain the correctness of
the suspicion The minister in due
time gave ont a text which, true
enough. the skipper found in the index
Of his book and pointed out to his

The minister then proceeded with the
sermon. going on word for word with
the sermon book for a sentence or two,
which greatly excited the skipper. who,
with IL crony on each side, kept tracing
