THE NAVAL OFFICER.
next day was in the society of those I loved, and who had ever loved me, in spite of all my perverseness and folly.
A few weeks after, Emily and I were united by the venerable bishop, who, with much emotion, gave us his benediction; and as the prayer of the righteous man availeth much, I felt that it was recorded in our favour in Heaven. Mr. Somerville gave the bride away. My father, with Talbot and Clara, were present; and the whole of us, after all my strange vicissitudes, were deeply affected at this reconciliation and union.
THE END.
SHACKELL AND BAYLIS, JO HNSON'S-COURT, FLEET-STREET.
