readers will be a little surprised when I tell them that
Charles Hardy is a minister of the gospel. He was recently settled in a
small town in Connecticut. The boat club changed his character,--purged
it of the evil and confirmed the good,--and he is now a humble and
devoted laborer in the vineyard of the Master.
Wood Lake is still beautiful, and the remembrances of former days are
still lovingly cherished by Frank and Tony, who reside on its banks. The
Zephyr and Butterfly, though somewhat battered and worm-eaten, are
occasionally seen, near the close of the day, with a lady and gentleman
in the stern sheets of each. The youthful crews are happier than usual,
for one bears the ex-commodore and lady, and the other the hero of
Rippleton Bridge and his lady.
THE END.
