made my friend determine to gland meet
r._ It was agreed th-t I was to accom-
y im, get my leave of absence renew
ed, and return with him to spend another
mouth in the pleasant mansion.
The evening before we stared the Ma
lay,
kiiimutgar came in, and begged as a
favor that his son might be allowed Li ac
company us, urging his prayer with great
force, and so beseechingly, that, alt'uiugh
my friend at first objected to take him, he
dually consented; and away he went in
high spirits to meet with a young lady
whom T—had foretold would become
my future wife.
On our arrival at Madras we were doom
ed to meet with disappointment. The
young lady had chanrd her mind, and,
instead of seeking a partner amongst the
pagoda-laden Madrasses, had chosen to
marry a handsome young ensign in a
matching regiment at home, who by dire
necessity was compelled
.To live on Iris par.
Xnd spend half-a-crown out ofaixpence a-day.'
We therefore hurried through the little
bigness we had to transact, and joyfully
set out again on our return, sending, how
ever,* daWk.cntirier on before, that our
arrival rdightlaklexpected.
When w9'i4rived at a small village a

as he welt knew he had given no such or
deist; and demanded if Mrs T—herself
, had tol d them to come, but found that
theta commands bad been conveyed to
then through the Malay kid mutgar, who
alone had remained behind.
I confess I looked upon it as a hoax or
a curious mistake, at which I was inclined
to smile. Nut so my ftiend, who seemed
agitated as it were by the presage of some
coming evil, and hastened on.
Aa we approached the house, we saw
every window and door clos-d. Neither
his wife nor thildran seemed to welcome
myfribad, who jumped out of his palan
qui% and ran lot ward like a madam. I
folkiwed him, and found him vainly endea
voring to burst open the verandah door.
With my assistance he effected this; when
