Giles, Crippleskate,.London, in the .year

rit of independence and vivacity of humor
which afteiwards so strongly characterized
him thibugh life. It appears from some
.pasiages in a Avork °lbis called the Review,.
that he' was.dfiginally intended tor one of

' - tilaced at-about-fourteen-years-of-age-in-an

Wok: after work--now followed iii
. rapid
succession from the pen-- of De' Foe, all
claiming high consideration for varied and
vigorous talent:. To , those days e of po
litical turmoil; when every public manitad
to form or assume decision of cheracter, his
energy was eminently. suited and , zealouely
addressed. lie was .accordingly, one of
• the first w-ho joined the "standard of the
-hapless Duke of Monmouth, when he i
landed at Lyme, and became as'ready -with '
- 149 -- sward - rs7vromprivith - liivlielirtie;
however, - had the good fortune to es
cape the fate of r inany of Monmouth's fol
lowers, and .returne.d' to :London, where,
_leaving-the-stormy-region of politics, he di,
recteds his attention to trade, , as' a hose-fac
tor.. This business he pursued ,for about
-ten years. When the revolution of 1688,
-broke forth, De Foe was a resident of Too
iing la •Surry,-wheie he was thetirst-m ho
attempted to form the into a re
gular congregation. • Of that Revolutiondie
was au ardent worshipper, and ardently
commemorated the 4th of November as a
day deliverance.. "A day," . says he,
' : 'famous on 'many accounts, and . every ,
one of them - dear to ' Britons .who love
their country, value the'. Protestant in '
terest, or have ..an aversion to tyranny and
oppression. On this day, he-(King Wil
laint) was born; on this day he married the
daughter of England, and oe this day he'
rescued the nation front a bondage worse
then that of Egypt:a bondage of soul as
well es bodily servitude, a slavery to the
-ambition and Jaging lust .of a generation
set on fire .by ptide; : - avarice and blood."
According to. Dc- Foe's own confessiott,,oc
enpations of -triitle are 'very uncongenial to
literary. exercises. •"A wit turned- trades
manl"- he exclaims; "no Apron-strings will
