Harley lodged, he was informed, that
the firft floor was then vacant, and that
the gentleman and his daughter might be
accommodated there. While he was upon

his benevolence. When he returned in*
to the room where they were, Atkins ran
and embraced him ; begged him again to
forgive the offence he had given him, and
made the warmeft proteftations of grati¬
tude for his favours. We would attempt
to defcrtbe the joy which Harley felt on

ftand it though we did ; and the other
half will, by this time, have underftood
