Mr Hufikil's book gives a somewhat nearer
view of "Will Penn," the Quaker, and pur
ports to n narrative from the suppoe-4
Journal of th fair Oull Bprlngtttl, tht

Journal Is represented a having been found
In nn old oaken chest at Wormlnchurst,

The charming Oull, who hitherto has ben
little more than a nam, ts dlscovarsd to
have been closely associated with th
romance of tha young Quaker's lit and
the tal unfolds nro seen episodes Oiled
with tenderness And of tragedy.
