The weight Of his pecuniary obligaiions pore down so heavily. upon him, that it seemed like robbing his creditors to spend a dollar for any luxury. Two yea s paid off his debts, and deposited two hundred dnllais in the bank - towards paying for his 'Proresiion ; but, when the school closed at .that time , the poor fellow was all worn out, and sully reduced in health.
