‘ You have the best lookout in the neigh
borhood,’ said Mr. Debree, walking to the
spot on which Skipper George had been
standing and looking abroad from it, —
‘XhU tree didn’t grow here,’ said he look
ing Up at the grey, trunk glistening in the
moonlight.
‘No sir; ’twaa set there, said the nsh
erman.
1 Is it a landmark ?’
‘ 'ls, sir, it may be, in a manner; but
not for s’ilun on those waters. ’Twas set
there when riches w?is taken aw’y. Rich
es came again, but ’twas laved, for ’ed
lamed partly bow to value riches.’
The gentleman looked, as the moonlight
showed, interestedly at the speaker; ‘ An
other story with a lesson in it ?’ he said.
• If it were not for keeping you out so late,
I would ask you to do me the favor of tel
ling it/
‘ Ay, sir,’ said Skipper George. ‘ I said
there were amany lessons sent us. This
one coined nearer to me again than the
tothcr —I hope I’ve lamed somethun by
that story ! Fishermen don’t heed night
hours much ; but it’s late for you as well,
sir. Mubbc ’ee’d plase to walk inside a
bit?’ he asked, with modest urgency,
• It’s a short story, only a heavy one If
‘ Another time, perhaps,’ said, the
strhnge gentleman ; 4 not now, if you'll
excuse me; but if it wouldn’t be too much
trouble 1 would thank you for it where
we arc. One hour or another is much the
same to me/
At the first words of this answer, Skip
per George turned a look of surprise at the
stranger, and when .the latter bad finished
speaking, asked,
4 Be’ee stayun hereabouts, then, sir ?’
Perhaps he may have thoughtit strange
that one who looked so muoh like a cler
gyman should he staying for any length of
time |n tho neighborhood, without being
hotter known.
1 l am a clergyman,’ said the gentleman,
frankly ; ‘ hut not of your church; and I
don’t feel free until I’m better known/
Byppet George apparently weighed the
answer. He did not urge his invitation;
bnt his open face become clear and kindly
as ever. 0 ’’ '
‘ Then,’ sir/ said he, * ef ’ccd plase to be
seated here, I’d tell the story. I know'
it well/
Before begining it the fisherman cast a |
look at bis house, and then gazed a while
upon the restless waves which here glanced '
with the gleam of treacherous eyes, and
there were dark as death.
‘Do’ee mind about ten years ago, in
Newfoundland, sir V began Skipper Geo.,
turning his steady eyes to his nearer, and
■Peking as if the dlkte or the years since
foe date had h^eh painful to him j 1 the •
hard year that was when they had the
*rdls,'they called T* -|.
‘Yes; though I was in England at the

in a manner, and a craft drivin’ right?
across our wake, an’ would ha’ been onto’
sight aii’ bearun in a minute. Then I
knowed by the sound ’twas the Minister —
(we didn’ have e’er a reverend gentleman
of our own in the diays; but’e lived over
in Sandy Harbor and ’ed oosc to go ali i
round the Bay.) We could sca’ce bide.
together, but I was proper glad to meet*
un, (for a minister’s a comfort, ’e know!
sir;) an’ ’e said, ‘/a avyhoit, outf' —|
1 There’s two o’ brother Izik’s orphans sir, |
I'm afeared, and others along wi’ 'em, 1
said. So ’e said, 1 God help them ! Wherd
arc your two other boys, James and Maun*'
sell?’ 1 Along wi’ brother Izik’s two,’ I
said. ’Twas blowun tarrible bard, and
cold, and thick ; and the minister turned
wi’ us, add we corned up, ploddun through
the driftun snow, and over the rudge.-4
When we opened the door, first the moth!
er thought there, was four of us , and sd
she said, ‘ James 1’ for we were all snowed
over; but she sid there was only three,
and ’twas the minister wi’ us two. i So she
begged his pardon, and told un oir poor
boys were out agunnun, and she jwas an
old punt they had. We were all atandun
(for we didn’ think o’ nawthin Imt the
boys) when two corned into the \ oor, all
white wi’ snow. ’Twasn’ they 1 wo, sir,
but ’twas ray nevy 1 Jesse and aothcr.
‘ Hav’ut they corned ?’ ’e said. V Dear,
what’s keepun they V *
‘ Jesse had abin out, too, wi’ Izik Maf
feen and Zippity Marchant, and thsy were
over to back-side o’ Sandy Harbor (Togeth
er ; on’y our poor young men wetfe about
three parts of a mile further down, mubbe.
So, when it corned on to blow, Jesse and
.his crow made straight for Bask Cove and
got in, though they were weak-handed,
for one had hurted bis hand-wrtet —and so,
in about three hours, they got round by
land, and thought the tother jaor fellows
would do so well. ‘ What canhis do Un
cle .Gcorgie?’ 'e said; for he’*, a proper
ture-bearted man, sir, and 'e ims a’mos’
cryun. ‘ First, we can pray,’\ said the
minister; and so he said a' prayer. I
make no doubt I was thinkun lio much
over the poor young fellows j and the wind
made a tarrible great bellowing town the
chimley and all around the housa and so
I was ruther aw’y from it morq an’d I
ought. Then the Minister and Jesse and I
started out. My mistress didn’ want me
to go j but I couldu’ bide; and a afore
we’d made much w’y up harbor asen the
wind and growun dark, (though \wasn’
snowun,) we met a man cumun from iother
side, Abram Frank; and ’e said last that
was seen of our four was, they were pul
lun in for Hobbiss’ Hole, and then some
thun seemed to give way like, wi’ one a’
’em rowun, and then they gave over anc
put her aw’y before the wind, and so a>
long as they could see anything of ’eif,
one was atandun up scullun aatarn. (Tb&t
was my James sir !’)
A very long breathed aigh here nude
itself heard in the deep hush, and as Hr-
Debree turned, he saw the sweet .face £f
Skipper George’s daughter turned to htr
father, with tears swimming in both eye>
and glistening bn her cheek. She hai

‘So we turned back, and the minister
wi’ us ('twas a cruel night to be out in,)
and the wind almost took and lifted us,
and sot us dowb by the foot b’ the path
over the rudge; but when we got atop
benvand it corned athwart, it brought us
all down kneelun, and we could scarce get
over to the door. The poor mother got
up from the chimley-corner and came for
ward, but she ncedn’ ask anythin’; and
there was a pretty thing by the fire,
(this girl was a ! little thing, asleep, but
there Tyas a pretty young thing there) that
never got up br looked' round ; ’twas Milly
Bessie, that was trothplight to James.—
They was to have been married in aweek,

a second or two. So I shut the door; and
the poor mother broke, oat aoryan, and
poor Milly fell over and slipped right
down upon the hearbstone. We had a
heavy time of it that night, sir; but when
the door banged open that time, this child
that was a little then, lyan upon the bench
.sleepan, made a soart of gagle like, when
the first sound corned to the door, and
when the flaws o’ wind corned in she smil
ed, and smiled agen, and laughed as ef a
body m’y be sayun pooty things to her in
d’y time. Jesse sid it, and plucked me
by the coatsleeve, and I sid it, too.
‘ Well, sir, night passed ; ’ee may be
sure we didn’ sleep much on'y cat naps;
and once or twice I failed into a kind of
■ dwall, and started, tbinkun they was speak
un to me. —Mornum corned slow and
cold, cdldet than night. So the neigh
bors corned in at mornun, and sat by; and
now and agen one ’ould say they were fine
young men; and after a bit another’d say
f James was abrave heart, and how he sav
-1 ed a boat’s crew three years ago, scullun
them into B’y Harbor; and so they said
> how he began to teach in Sunday School
| Sunday before ; and how brave’e was, when
they sid the last of un scullen aw'y round
the point and over the b’y, for t’other
side, or for Belle-Isle, or some place to lee
ward. So they said James ’ould take ’em
safe, plase Qod, and we’d hear of ’em
some place over the b’y in d’y or two. —
Then they said they wondered ef the young
men could keep from freezun their hands,
and said mubbe .they woudn’ git touched,
for they was all well-clothed, and James
’ould keep up their spirits, and brother
Izik’s little George was a merry boy, and
great play-game for the rest ; and my
Maunselland ’ca tother cousin, John, were
steady young men, and wouldn’ give up
very easy ; but they were both quiet, and
looked up to James, though John was a
good bit older.
< Wull, sir, the day went on, cold, an’
blowun heavy, an’ the water black an’
white, wi’ white shores, an’ slob-ice all
along; an’ moire, agen, an’ heavier, to
leeward, sartenly. We could n’stir hand
or foot that day, nor next ; but the Lord's
day came in softer, an’ we got a good crew
an’ a stout hunt to sarch for the four boys
that had been three days a missun; and
old Mr. Williamson, the clerk that is now,
fair, made a prayer over us before we laved.
When we came to put off, they left me
standun; X make no doubt but Jesse
''maned to spare me; but I called un back
for I said, why should I be settun wi’ my
hands folded, or- walking about, lookun out
oner the water, and I may be just as well
be doun somethun like a father for my
sons an’ for my brother's orphans ?
‘We made for Broad Cove ; for so we
thought the wind would ha’ driven the
poor young fellows a-Thursday; but we
couldn’ get into Broad Cove, for the slob
an’ cakes of ice. The shore looked tum
ble cruel!’
Skipper Georpe sate, thoughtful a mo
meat, and then began again.
i At Port’gal Gove,’ ho continued, look
ing over the water, ‘ they.didn’ know about
e’er a punt, an’ no m6re they didn’ at Broad
Cove, nor Holly-rood j for we staid three
days, an’ walked an’ sarehed all over. An’
so, a-Thursday morning agen we corned
back home; ’twas cold, hilt still. So when
we corned round Peterpont Point, /that s
it over at the outside o’ Blazun Head, yon
der,) every man a’most, looked over his
shoulder, thinkun mubbe they’d got in;
but't wasn' so* They hadn’ come, nor
they hadn’ been hard from. So my
mi-tress, an’ Milly, an’ George, an’ I, an’
this maid kneeled down after I’d told ’em
how ’t was, an’ prayed to the good Lord.
“ An’ so we waited, an’ didn’ hear from
the four boys, not for a good many days.”
Skipper George stopped here again for
a while.
« Awell, sir* then there corned word
over that some men had abin found at
Broad Cove!—-it wasn’ known who they
were; —but We knowed. So they got
Mr. Worner’s boat, and a crew of em’
went round, and Skipper ’Enery Bessie,
and Skipper Izik Bessie, (that was Milly s
father/) and Skipper Izik Marchant, (he
wasn’ Skipper then, however,) butamany
friends goed in her—l couldu’ g<f that
time sir. f** I
‘’Twas about sun-go-down she corned
in. Never a word nor a sound I She
looked black seemunly ; and no colors nor
flag. 'Twas they! Sure enough, ’twas
theyl
« A h|id aid a punt all covered wi’ I
ice and hauled her up;; and when he corn
ed to clear away the ice, there was a man
wemnnly in the for’ard part! He called
the neighbors; and sure enough, there*!
was another one along wi un; and both
seemuply a-kneelun and leanun over the |
ftjr’ard- th’arb. They were the two broth
ers, John and George, frozen stiff, and
two arms looked together! .They died
pr’yun, sir, most likely; so it seemed.—
They was good lads, sir, and they knowed
their God*
‘So, then, .they thought*there wash’ no
more.’
3?he here made a long pause,
and issuing up from i his seat, said, 4 X*H
be lwekwftekabit, air;’ and walkedaww
. Debree and his daughter, stood
[independent in everything.]
for a little while with his back toward
them and his head bare.
The maiden bent her gentle face upon
her knee within her hands. The moon
light glossed her rich blak hair, glanced
frdm her white cap, and gave grace to her
bended neck. At the fiipt motion of her
father to turn about, she rose to her feet and
awaited him. Upon him too—on his head,
bared of its hair, above, on his broad,
manly front, apd on his steady eye—-the
moonlight feel beautifully. Mr. Decree
rose, also to wait for him.
Skipper George camejiack and- took up
his broken story.
“ Bumby, sir, when they corned to the
after part of the boat, there they found a
young man lyun in the starn-sheet, wi’
no coat, and his —and his —his poor, lovun
arm under his brother’s neek ; —and the
tother had the jacket rolled up for a pillow
under his head, and I suppose he died
there, sleepun upon the jacket, that his
brother rolled up for un.”
The voice of the father was very tender
and touching; but he did not give way to
tears.
“ So, sir, that young man had done his
part and sculled ’em safe right along wi’
the tarrible cruel gale, aw’y over a twenty
miles or more, to a safe cove, and his hand
wrist were all worn aw’y wi’ workun at
the oar; —but he never thought of a cruel
gate of ice right afore the cove; and so we
made no doubt when he found that, in
dark night, and found he couldn’t get
through, nor he coudn’l walk over, then
he gave hisself up to his God, and laid
down, and put his tired arm round his
brother; and so there they were, sir, in
short after that, (it eouldn’ ha’ been long,)
there was four dead men in their boat,
awaitun, outside o’ Broad Cove, tull some
one ’oud come and take their poor bodies
and strip aw’y the ice from ’em in the
ground, that comes more nat’ral, in a man
ner, sir!
‘ They did n’ find e’er an’ oar, whatever
becomed of ’em, but they found their poor
gups, and the two orphans had names
cut,‘John Barbury,’ and ‘ George Bar
bury, and one of ’em had ‘ Pet—,’ for Pe-
Wpont, and eouldn’ cut no m° r h f° r cold
and death.
‘ There was three guns cut,; and one had
‘ James Bar —,’ that poor Maunsell
ha’ cut, poor fellow, afore the deadly cold
killed un. So the kind people that found
the poor boys, they thoug! t James was a
respectable young man, and when they
come to lay ’em out in the school-house,
(they, were proper kind, sir,) they put a
ruffle shirt on him o’ linen.
‘So, air, the Minister coined over and
buried the dead. Four coffins were laid
along the aisle, wi’ a white sheet over ev
ery one, because we had n’ palls; James
and Maunsell, of George and John, and
little George, of Izik; and we put two
brothers in' one grave, and two brothers in
another, side by, side, and covered them !
‘ There was two thousand at the funer
al ; and when the minister could n’ help
cryun, so I think a’most every one cryed,
as ef’t was their own ; and so we hard
that people that lived on Kelly’s Island,
hard singun goun by in the dark, like
chantun we have in church. They said’t
was beautiful, comun up an’ dyun aw’y wi’
the wind. It’s very like, sir, as Paul and
Silas sang in prison, so they sans in storm.
‘ Then milly, poor thing, that never goed
back to her fathers house, took a cold at
the funeral, seemunly, and she died in
James’ bed a three weeks after ! She was
out of her. mind, too, poor thing!’
After another silence, in which Skipper
George gazed upon the restless deep, he
said, I
‘ I brought horn? wi’ me the; best stick
from the timber, and laved the rest, and
no one ever touched it, and there it staid.
So next winter, sir, my tother poor young
man died in the woods o’ measles, (thank
(Jod !—we never had to move in till I lost
my fine boys,) and the next sixteen’ days
ot January I set up my pillar as Jaoob set
his pillar, and this is my pillar, sir. I said
thie Lord gived, and the Lord had tookt
away j—Blessed be the name of the Lord.
All the riches I had I thought’t was gone.’
‘ You said riches came again,’ said Mr.
Debree, deeply interested and affected.
‘ Ay,.sir. Sly maid is gone back to the
bouse. I can’ tell ’ee w hat she is, sir j
there’s plenty in the harbor will speak o’
Lucy Barbury, sir. I hope ’ee ’ll excuse
me for keepin ’ee so late.’
< I thank you with all my heart, for that
beautiful story,’ said Mr. Debree, shaking
the fisherman's band. * Good night, Skip
per George! You have learned me a les
son, indeed, and, with God’s grace, it shall
do me good. It is a noble lesson!
‘ The Lord showed me where to find it
iin my Bible and my pr’yer-book, sir. I
I wish ’ee a good evenun, sir.
Anger.— Had l a careful and pleasant
companion, that should show me my angry
face in a glass, I should not at all take
ill. Some are wont to have a looking]
glass held to them while they wash, though
to little purpose; boLto behold a man’s self
so unnaturally disguised and disoeded, will
conduce not a little to the impeachment of
anger. _____

It recommended to those persons whose
