Lectures of Father Paul,
44 A little tea lute* 1
Jathsr Paul,
I am an unfortunate man, and
need of good advice; but am with
out fears that it would now come
too late to produce any good ef*j
fact.—However, heat my story, j
and if you think my disorder not!
incurable, pray prescribe for me.
My father was an eminent gla
zier in Leicestershire, England, !
possessed of a fortune o£ 15,0001, !
sterling. My brother and myself!
were born both on the same day;!
v—but as all luck would have it, 1
he thrust his nose into this ras* ’
cally v/orld about an hour before
rae. and therefore, as the oldest
son, was heir to my Father's pro
perty In short, in the very out- j
set in Use, 1 found myself a little
too late.
Without troubling you with
the various mishaps of childhood,
I pass to the time that 1 was one
and twenty, and engaged my pas
sage to London in a stage coach,
having fifteen guineas in my pock
et and a draft on a respectable
house for one hundred and fifty;
and this constituted all my fer
ame.—‘The morning came on
which the stage was to start; the
hour v/as fixed at half past four;
unluckily I slept till five and on
hurrying to the stage house, found
It had gone without me, for I was
a little too late. Determined, how
ever to pursue my journey. I got
my trunk into a waggon, jogged
on as well is I eduld and at length
arrived at the metropolis two days
after the mad, when, wo to me!
On presenting my draft I found
that the house had failed the day
before, and 1 had come to my sor
row too late.
From this moment I formed a
resolution never to oversleep my
self, or to let the fixed hour go by,
attention. I then took passage in
the steerage, (as best suited to
my circumstances) on board a
jhlp bound to Philadelphia, and
although she was not to sail un<
der a week, put my trunk on board
resolving to be ready for the voy
age ; but the day which v/as fixed
‘jr her departure, I went on shore
k - hv in ? *,r*c?s of cracker* and
m v
tobacco, v/hich t had forgotten*
intending to stay only an hour;
when my notice was attracted by
a fellow who stood upon a Hogs*
dead* swallowing -knives fish
hooks, snuff boxes and what tri
fles the gaping crowd would trust
him with, till the hour had twice
and on hurrying a
way to the shore behold the ship
had sailed, with trunk, .cloths, h
all my money on board. Indeed,
1 was rather too late.
By great exertions however, I
hired a boat for four times its
worth, to assist me to overtake
the ship, and at length to my great
joy got on board and arrived sale
in the country, which v/as I fond
ly hoped to break the charm and
j put a final end ;o my misfortunes.
Being acquainted with farm
ing, and particularly with fatten
jingcattle, 1 hired myself out to a
j former in, Lancaster courny, and
as 1 am a rosy cheeked ttooct 100-
king followl made my way rathe
sided ions of a charming Dutch
girl, worth ten thousand
sensible and imdigent, though a
little hasty. She had been counted
iby an Irish lad, but I imd won
| the consent of tha rass In
spite of him, aridths very day
was fixed for pur wedding. I could
tictylo less, you know than to in
vite John to the marriage party, i
own to triumph. Then I thought
my happiness complete. But in
the hurry of dosing-myself, for
I was thinking, as folks will mi !
such occasions, of a thousand odd j
things, I found, just as I was a
bout to starte, that I had forgot
ten to change my linen; —a most,
unfortunate affair I—But I hur
ried as fast as possible (for 1 have
been in a hurry ail my life) got 1
myself rigged and hastened to the.
appointed place, when—the devil
take such Inch; the bride had
been laughed into the notion that
I did not intend to come, and in
a moment of wounded pride, half
to mortify me, and resolved that
wedding guests should not be
disappointed—-she stood up with
John, and the priest had that mo
ment said—amen. Alas the day,
I was again a little too late.
Laughed at—disappointed*** !
mortified I left Lancaster, and
have come to push my fortune in
this great city.—-How Father
Paul I pray you to tell me what I
can do to get rid of this evil ge
nius, which has followed me a
-1 cross the Atlantic and so long
haunted me? Are there, think
{you, any in this city who have
symptoms of the disease.
Yours
James Tardy.
j I will consider of the matter.
