he only one which she
complained of. Mr. Campbell had, at the request of my father,
discharged Lady Musgrave's parent from the office of steward and
called in the old steward to resume his situation, and before
dismissal, he had to refund certain sums of money not accounted for.

I have now told my eventful tale; I have only to add, that after all
that I have passed through, I have been rewarded by many years of
unalloyed happiness. My two sisters are well married, and my three
children are all that a father could wish. Such, my dear Madam, have
been the vicissitudes of a "Privateer's-man," and I now subscribe
myself,

Your most obedient,

ALEXANDER MUSGRAVE.

THE END.
