"As for any incidents of importance during my sea-life, I suppose my experience of twenty-five years at sea would fill a volume, if the half were recorded that might be interesting to those who have spent their lives on shore. I have passed through many painful and trying scenes, as well as many dangers, from which it appeared as if nothing short of a miracle could save us, not a few of which it is unpleasant to dwell upon.

"You will perceive that I never had any brothers or sistersmy father dying when I was six months old, and my mother when I was seven years. And I have no children. You will also perceive that I have sailed seven voyages in as many different ships, have passed through all the different grades, from ordinary seaman to master, and three voyages in that capacity. I have always made a successful voyage, and, in fact, have been blessed beyond what I have deserved."

1 We take the liberty to give his biography in his own language, being very natural and appropriate. We regret that we necessarily omit an interesting account of his several voyages at sea, and of his "hair breadth escapes," written with a naivete and in a style peculiar to the old sea captain.
