  • DEDICATION.

    Whatever meed of praise or blame may fall to the lotof a maiden effort in the region of the purely mechanical is due to myself ;that which results from sympathetic appreciation is due to mygood wife to whom this workis lovingly inscribed. [I. E- W.]

  • INTRODUCTION. "We ought to think more of what our ancestors would

    think of us than of what we think of them."— President Stryker, ofHamilton College.

    " " The present attempt to formulate a Tree of the Okely

    family is strictly in the nature of work that is pioneer. It" can hardly be said with truth that there were found no footsteps either to guide or to warn," for details were not lacking-, but as far as could be ascertained, the materials had never been brought together insystematic form.

    The difficulties of such a task need not be dwelt upon. It is highly gratifying, however, to be able to say that that portion of it which might ordinarily seem tedious and perfunctory, has been made light and pleasant by the kind cooperation and uniform courtesy of the relatives.

    The editor especially wishes to express his acknowledgments to Miss Elizabeth B. Gara, of Lancaster, Pa., without whose kindly aid itwould have been impossible to grace the enterprise with some of the earlier and more interesting events in connection with the Okely family. Also Mr. Thomas Wilson, of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D. C, by his council and friendly advice, contributed in no small degree; certainly, without such help and moral support anything like success would have been difficult.

    Finally, submitting the work for approval, the editor has little fear of its reception, but leaves his readers to judge whether, as the charity boy said of the alphabet, and the senior Weller of matrimony, itis worth while to go through so much toget so little;or, whether they willagree with the" junior Weller and vish there vas more of it."

    Indeed, the editor looks with pleasure on his work, however defective, and delivers itto his kinsmen with the spirit— of one who has endeavored well. Editor.

  • OKELY, OF BEDFORD, ENGLAND.

    PART FIRST.

    The most trustworthy information points to John Okely— and Mary—maiden name not given as our "first parents," so to speak.

    Presumably, John Okely was of purely English stock, but itis just possible there may have been an Irish branch to the tree, as there are Celts in this country who spell the name O'Kelly. This is speculation, however, which must be left to the antiquary.

    We are informed that John Okely and Mary, his wife, are buried in St. Paul's churchyard, Bedford, Eng. But little is known of them.

    John was one of three brothers, the other twobeing- Peter and James.

    James is known to have come to this country in the eaily days, and after an interval returned toEngland and became a minister of the Established Church. He was only a multiple great uncle of the present generation, but it would be interesting" to know something 1further of him.

    Peter Okely seems to have been better known. One account gives his birth as April, 1654, and his death 1712. The same authority says he lived inEmerton, near Olney, and that he died at Bedford, England.

    Peter is described as "a rich and covetous old bachelor who used to say that 'John Okely would never be a half" penny the better for anything- he had.'

    7

  • Going1 to London on business he became suddenly ill,and desired that a place be taken for him in the Olney coach, but through mis&ke itwas reserved in the Bedford stage, where he arrived much worse and soon after died there intestate.

    A place called "Trumpeter Meadows" on which was a good stone dwelling-, was bought with Peter Okely's money, and itwas said the man who occupied the house after Peter's death became suddenly and unaccountably rich. The account then adds ingenuously, "veryprobably money or bills might have been hidden in the house."

    The Olney "Register Book" records the burial of John Okely, October 30, 1672, and that of Mary Okely, widow, May 11, 1681.

    By the union of John and Mary there were two children, Francis, and Ann,spinster.

    Francis married Anne, surname unknown, and by this marriage wehave John, born inBedford, England, 1721, who died in this country 1792.

    Francis and Anne Okely are also buried in St. Paul's church yard.

    Part of this relation is conjecture, but perhaps as near the truth as the mathematical demonstration contained in the" statement that The area of a circle equals the square of the radius multiplied by 3.1416." That is, near enough for practical purposes.

    The positive information inregard to the Okely pedigree on the paternal side dates from John Okely, born1721. This is our ancestor who held positions of trust and emolument under the United States government during the Nation's struggle for independence.

    There is good reason for thinking that Francis and Anne were the parents of John Okely just named, but this seems doubtful.

    As for any knowledge that might be obtainable prior to 8

  • 1668, such an attempt was rendered hopeless by a disastrous fire in that year which destroyed all the Olney Registers up to that time.*******

    The foregoing1, as well as certain parts of that which follows, was adapted from material furnished by the courtesy of Miss Gara. On referring to the same source we find that John Okely, afterwards Assistant Commissary General in the Federal Army, came to America under the guardianship of August Gottlier Spangenberg, a Moravian missionary, who afterwards became a Bishop. Spangenberg had already been to this country in 1735, as somewhere near that date he founded the Moravian Church here . He established Moravian settlements inGeorgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, etc.

    His prot6g6 must have been religiously inclined, as the good Bishop took such a fatherly interest in him. At this— time our ancestor was just twenty-one years old. [Ed.]

  • OKELY, OF BALTIMORE, MD.

    John Okely, bom in Baltimore 1785, was a son of the Commissary General. After the death ofhis father in1792, the property was divided between himself and an only sister, Elizabeth, who married William Buck. The mother, who had been Margaret Moore, the widow of Mathew Graeff,passed away just three years before the death of her second husband.

    John Okely's share of the estate consisted of a goodly sum of money, and land on the Conestoga river. The money was invested inbusiness enterprises in Baltimore, Md., and Washing-ton, D. C. He also owned merchant vessels, but during- the war of 1812-14, his financial interests suffered greatly by land and sea.

    One of his greatest losses, and one which John Okely felt keenly, was some rascally treatment of Stephen Girard. There are those stillliving" who willnot be surprised at the intimation that John Okely's descendants might have been many dollars richer ifithad not been for Stephen Girard, the founder of the Colleg-e for Orphan Boys, located inPhiladelphia, at a cost of $2,000,000.*

    Becoming disheartened under repeated discouragements, John Okely finally gathered together the remnants of his fortune and went into partnership with his brothers-in-law,

    " *One of Girard' s biographers says of him, Althoug-h he could

    sometimes act the part of a benefactor to the community, itis said he never had a friend."

  • D. H. and J. W. Wilson, in the manufacture of salt. This was at Harmony, Butler County, Pa., about seventy-five years ago. The firmhad also a general company store. The business was fairly profitable for a time, but improved methods of production and close competition soon forced them to the wall.

    John Okely died of dropsy, of which he had a slight attack. It was thought his life could have been prolonged but for the ignorant diagnosis of his physician.

    11

  • OKELYCLAIMAGAINST THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

    By referring- elsewhere in this work, itwillbe seen there are good reasons for thinking- that the U. S. Government is indebted to the descendants of Commissary John Okely. Ina moral sense at least, there seems tobe no doubt whatever that such is the case; a view which is sustained by the records of the Historical Society of Philadelphia, as well as the traditions of the family. Unfortunately, evidence of this character, seemingly conclusive to those most nearly concerned, would hardly stand in a court of justice.

    About fiftyyears ag-o, receipts showing- this indebtedness were in the possession of the family, or perhaps the familysolicitor, in Butler, Penna., but for some unaccountable reason disappeared.

    Reference to the records of the Historical Society shows that in1795 a claim was broug-ht before Congress. This was but three years after John Okely's death. Failing- to recover, the matter was dropped, but opened ag-ain in1825, about one year after the death of John Okely, Jr. Once more the heirs were doomed to disappointment, and the case has not since been revived.

    The chances are that when Congress was petitioned the first time the evidence necessary to recover was in the possession of the claimants. If,therefore, they failed at that time, when the matter was fresh in the minds of those concerned, what hope of success could there be now, when there is no written evidence whatever. The original receipts are

    12

  • lost. They were not lost when the case was presented in 1795, yet it was not allowed. Furthermore, the claim was long- ago outlawed by the statute of limitations.

    Presumably duplicate papers were filed in the Government archives at Washing-ton, but as the Capital was burned by the British in 1814, it is more than likely they were destroyed at that time.*

    In view of these circumstances, "Castle-building, while not altogether a bad employment where hope has laid the foundation, is nevertheless rather a heartless one where imagination has to draw the ground plan as well as the elevations."— [Ed.]

    *" The British, under General Ross, entered Washington City in 1814, and burned the Capitol. This included the Congressional library, which contained 3,000 books."

  • His widow, with, her youngest child, Isaac, came North early the following year and settled in New Brighton. At this time the other two children, Lois and Charles, were inIrvington, N. J., at a boarding school conducted by the Rev. John L.Chapman.

    Eliza Okely married Thos. A. Barker about 1843, and settled in New Brighton.

    Lavinia Okely married Milton Townsend and settled in the same place, but for some years resided inPittsburgh.

    SEVENTH GENERATION.

    Elizabeth Wilson married W. S. Morlan, a lawyer, who was the son of Richard D. by a former marriage. Settled in New Brighton. s

    Alice A. Wilson, sister of Elizabeth, married at New Brighton Dr. H.M.Bishop, and went to live inSharon, Pa., but later settled inBrooklyn, L.I.

    Albert E.Morlan,born inNew Brighton, was apprenticed to a jeweler, and after learning the trade went into that business in Belize, British Honduras. Later on he accepted the position of United States Consul at that port, serving under two administrations, one Democratic and the other Republican, resigning in 1898. Married inNew Orleans, La. (See last page of Miscellaneous.)

    Mary Morlan, sister of Albert E-, widowed by the death of h.er first husband, John Burt (to whom she was married at New Brighton), went West and bought a small farm at Lamar, Mo. In1883 she married Saml. C. Cotterill, and settled on a farm inKenoma, Barton Co., Mo.

    John M.Okely, Jr., was a Captain in the CivilWar in 17

  • Sickle's brigade, and served with distinction. About the time of his marriage he engaged in the brokerage business in Pittsburgh and became quite wealthy. He died suddenly in San Francisco, Cal.

    Isaac E. Wade born inHouston, Texas, came North when five years old, eventually settled in Pittsburgh, and engaged in the railroad business. This was about 1863. In the early part of 1872 he took a clerical position in the Tradesmen's National Bank of Pittsburgh, and after leaving that institution four years later, once more secured employment in the railroad business, this time with the Pennsylvania Company of the same city. Married at Grace Episcopal Church, Chicago, 111., 1883.

    Harry T. Barker, brother of Frank A. Barker, married and settled in New Brighton. He went into the banking business with his brother, but subsequently became resident city engineer at New Brighton.

    H.B. Okely (Oakley) has for many years been employed inthe general offices of the Pennsylvania R. R. at Philadelphia.

    18

  • Emily O. Townsend, married in New Brighton in 1888, and settled there.

    Miss Mazie Okely and her sister Emily, livein Philadelphia with their brother Harry. Emily is an art teacher.

    EIGHTH GENERATION.

    Carry M.Morlan was born and reared in New Brighton, but early in lifedrifted West. She married twice. First at White Rock, Kansas, to Mr. Andrew L.Milligan, and next at Hardy, Nebraska, to James W. Long-fellow. She now lives on a farm inHardy.

    Charles W. Wade was born inPittsburgh. For a number of years he was employed in the business department of the Pittsburgh Dispatch. Soon after his marriage which took place at St. Augustine, Fla., in 1895, he migrated west and purchased a fruit farm in Redlands, Cal. Subsequently he took a clerical position in the Union Bank of Redlands, but retained the farm, where he stillresides.

    AliceMorlan studied art while pursuing the occupation of school teacher. At the present time, and for some years past, she has had a studio and art school inNew York City.

    (a) The descendants of Elizabeth Okely, sister of John Okely, settled in the Eastern part of this State, chiefly in and around Philadelphia and Lancaster, although some of them moved to the far West. Henry M. Baer, a grandson, died in Salem, Oregon. His brother, Samuel C. Baer, is employed by a Pittsburgh firminthe toy business.

    (b) Itwillperhaps be of interest to know that any of the Okely descendants, Ibelieve, after fourteen years of age, are eligible as sons and daughters of the "American Revolution."

    TOWNSEND.

    So much for the paternal side of the pedigree. The record on the maternal side is fairly complete for nearly 300

    19

  • years. Of this branch of the Okely familyRichard Townsend must be placed first. Hecan be traced in a direct line through Alisanna Wilson, 1790.

    Richard Townsend was bornduring- the reignof Elizabeth, although at its close. The house of Stuart was just coming into power, and Lord Bacon was at the height of his popularity. Richard Townsend was a cotemporary of Sir Walter Raleigh and the English patriot, Sydney. His boyhood was spent when Shakespeare's genius had reached its fullfruition, and before the question was raised as to whether Shakespeare wrote his own plays or whether they were written by some other man ofthe same name.

    Nine generations of Richard Townsend's descendants— have been born since he himself first saw the light. [Ed.]

    — Note- One noticeable feature of these pedigrees is the great num

    ber of children in the earlier generations, the most prominent being the family of Daniel Hoopes and Jane Worrelow, which shows 17 children. Evidently the troubles of this union were chiefly little ones.

    Another marked peculiarity which stands out inbold relief is a certain mildness of temperament, which is—nevertheless tempered by a dogged persistence in the pursuit of right the moral code always kept in sight, but with no great parade or asceticism. This is doubt— less the Quaker element. [EJd-]

    TOWNSEND.

    COURTESY OP S. E- AND C K. CHAMBERUN.

    Richard Townsend was born in Gloucester, —England, 1602. His wife's Christian name was Elizabeth, surname not given. They had two sons, Richard and William.

    Richard Townsend, Jr., married Ann Hutchins 1677, and in 1682 came to Pennsylvania in company with William Perm on the ship Welcome. He settled inChester county, and later removed to Philadelphia.

    William Townsend married ? His son, Joseph, married 20

  • Martha Wooderson in 1710, and came to America in 1712. They settled inChester County, Pa.

    Richard Townsend, Jr., died at the residence of his nephew, Joseph Townsend, ofEast Bradford, Chester County, Pa. From these two, uncle and nephew, are descended the Townsends of Pennsylvania.

    Note : The present generations of Townsends and Hoopes are to be congratulated on their ability to trace their descent c regione from so old and distinguished a family as that of Richard de Guylpyn, born in England about 1175, of French parents, orperhaps Norman French. Inallprobability there are many of the name in this country who are direct decendants, although spelling the name Gilpin. Prominent among these we find Henry D. Gilpin, an American lawyer and classical scholar, born inPhiladelphia in1801. He graduated at the University of Pennsylvania in1819, was admitted to the bar in 1822, and soon became a distinguished jurist. In1840 he was made Attorney General of the United States. He died in 1860. (Allibone.)—[Ed.]

    HOOPES. (adapted.)

    THROUGH THE COURTESY OF S. E- AND C K. CHAMBERWN.

    Joshua Hoopes, surname perhaps spelled originallyHoops, was born in Skelton, inCleveland, Yorkshire, England. He was a yeoman, or gentleman farmer.

    With their three children, Joshua and his wife, Isabel, came to America in the ship Providence, arriving1 September 10, 1683. During- the CivilWar, in1648, he was a cornet in a regiment of horse.* This couple located inBucks County, Pa.

    See family record for Daniel, and Daniel's son, Thomas, who married Susanna Davies.

    David, son of Thomas last named, together withhis wife settled inNew Garden Township, Chester County, and in1801

    *Acornet ofhorse had the oldrank ofFourth Lieutenant, and bore the standard. There was a similar office in the Infantry, but both were abolished in 1872.

    21

  • removed to Middle Falls, Beaver County, afterwards known as Brighton, and at the present time, 1898, Beaver Falls. In 1743 David Hoopes was accidentally drowned while crossing the Beaver River ina skiff. He was then 68 years old.

    Joseph Hoopes, son of David, was married inWilmington, Del., and removed toNew Brighton, Pa., in1801.

    Joseph Hoopes' descendants, through his wife, Eleanor Hamilton, trace their lineage from the time of King John, something over 700 years.

    " That time of lifewhen leaves are none, or all, or

    few;bare, ruined choirs where once the sweet birds"— sang 1. Shakespeare.

    WILSON.

    James Wilson, born April,1806, was reared by his uncle, Isaac Wilson, and was first employed by him at the Salt Works, Harmony, Butler County, Pa.

    Subsequently, Mr. Wilson was apprenticed to Edward Hoopes, a maker of wagons and buggies, and later, about 1830, went into business for himself in New Brighton, Pa., Main street, in the same line. After his marriage, which took place in 1837, he built a frame residence on a portion of the lot he had purchased for his wagon shop. This was near a brick building owned by David Hoopes and next to Jimmy Boies' tavern.

    During the rest of an active life,until his retirement, Mr. Wilson resided in a home which he erected at the corner of Broadway and Apple Street, as these streets were then called. This was one doortbelow the residence of Benj.Rush Bradford.

    He spent a few years in Washington^ D. C.,with his two children, Thomas and Alisan.

    At the present time, February, 1899, and for some years previous, Mr. Wilson has resided with his granddaughters

    22

  • Silliman inNew Galilee, Pa., having- reached the ripe age of nearly 93 years. His health is excellent, but unfortunately, since he was 65 years old, he has been hopelessly blind. He bears this affliction with resignation and Christian fortitude. He has spent most of his lifeinBeaver County.

    Jas.—Wilson is the father of Thomas Wilson next mentioned. [Ed.]

    Thomas Wilson, the son of James just mentioned, is a great-great-grandson of Christopher Wilson.

    At the age of sixteen the subject of this sketch was apprenticed to David Woodruff, of Salem, Ohio, in the manufacture of carriages and buggies. Atnineteen he returned to his home at New Brighton, Pa., and joined his father in—the same business. Later on he migrated to—Marietta, lowa regarded as the "far West" in those days and opened a shop for making- heavy plows for breaking- prairie.

    Mr. Wilson, who had always been a student, afterward engaged in the study of law with Messrs. Finch and Crocker, of Dcs Moines, la., and in course of time opened an office in Marietta, lowa, where he was fairlysuccessful.

    At the breaking out of the CivilWar, Mr. Wilson was among the first to respond to the country's needs, serving as captain in the Second lowa Cavalry and the 44th Infantry until the close of the war, after which we find him inWashington, D.C, where he resumed the practice of his profession, chiefly before the Court of Claims and the United States Supreme Court.

    AsUnited States Consul, Mr. Wilson served his government successively at Ghent, Nantes and Nice, and while abroad improved his opportunities to study prehistoric anthropology, and at the present time, 1898, occupies the responsible position of Curator inthe National Museum and Smithsonian Institution of Washington, D. C, holding also a professorship in the National University with the title of L,h. D. Inrec

    23

  • (ignition of his scientific labors, Mr. Wilson has been made Commander of the Order of Isabella la Catolica by the Queen Regent of Spain, and the same in the Order of Leopold Premier by the Kingof Belgium.

    As Mr.Wilson is still living itwould perhaps not be in good taste to use panegyrics, however much one might be tempted to do so. Suffice it to say that at least among his— friends and acquaintances all eulogy is quite unnecessary. [Ed.]

Thomas had ten children, one of whom, Eleanor, married James Robinson, and by this union we have Rachel Robinson, who married Thomas Hamilton. Eleanor Hamilton, of this marriage, was united to Joseph Hoopes. Joseph was the son of David Hoopes and Esther Townsend, and a brother of Susanna Hoopes, who married Isaac Wilson, whose daughter Alisanna married John Okely of Baltimore, born 1785.

    Thus we find that the Okely descendants are collateral, but not lineal, descendants of Richard de Guylpyn. [See chart B.—Ed.]

    Kendal, the birthplace of Richard de Guylpyn, the founder of that family, is one of the most charming localities inallEngland. Itis situated inthe North, inwhat isknown as the "Lake Country," and ismade additionally famous as the birth-place of Wordsworth, Coleridge and Southey, who were called the "Lake Poets."— [Ed.]

    Bedford, John Okely's birthplace, is an agricultural and manufacturing centre, and is situated about fiftymiles north— of London, and has apopulation of thirty thousand. [Ed.]

    Gloucester, (Glo'ster) is a city of about forty thousand inhabitants, and lies ISO miles west of London, near the Bristol Channel.— [Ed.]

    Skelton, a town of about six or—seven thousand population, is in Yorkshire, near the coast. [Ed.] Benjamin West was born in Springfield, Delaware

    County, Pa., October 10, 1738. He was a member of the " Society of Friends. His most noted paintings are Death of Wolf," "Departure of Regulus," "Battle of LaHogue," "Death on the Pale Horse," "Christ Healing the Sick." The original of this latter painting is in the British National Gallery. A copy is in the possession of the Pennsylvania Hospital at Philadelphia.

    Itis said that West, on being asked to contribute to the 27

  • hospital fund, gave the managers a copy of thisnoted painting. Itwas soon after exhibited throughout the United States, and earned a nice sum of money for the Hospital. In1792 Benjamin West succeeded Sir Joshua Reynolds as president of the Royal Academy.

    West's biographers speak of him as eminent. This is scarcely the word to use. His art treatment is hard and mechanical, and while displaying great talent, itnevertheless lacks that element of greatness which is the offspring of— genius. [Ed.]

    PARTLY ADAPTED FROM INFORMATION FURNISHED BY THOMAS AND

    AWSAN WILSON OF WASHINGTON, D. C, GREAT-GRAND

    CHILDREN OF CHRISTOPHER WIIySON.

    A tradition says that Christopher Wilson, the father of John Wilson, who married Alisanna Webster, was a Quaker preacher of some note inthe North East of England, perhaps Yorkshire.

    Christopher visited Maryland prior to 1760, and on his return found that his son John was engaged to be married "out of meeting." His father then urged John to come to America. This he did, landing at Joppa, Md. As the vessel— — approached the landing always an erent of interest the girls of the neighborhood assembled on the bank, and as each young man came down the gang-plank the young women laughingly made choice of their future spouse. When John Wilson appeared, Alisanna Webster, who was among the girls," said, That is my beau; I'llhave him."

    John Wilson subsequently returned toEngland, but with permission from meeting, and the consent of his parents, returned to America and married Alisanna Webster. They lived at Stafford, on the Susquehanna River, about five miles above Havre-de-Grace, Md.

    were still standing in 1868,The old milland stone house — but were unoccupied and going to decay. [Ed.]

  • TO FIND THE EXISTING REI^TIONSHIP OF ANY MEMBER OF ONE FAMILY

    WITH THAT OF ANOTHER BRANCH.— "

    c. g. What is the relationship between No. 69 Okely of" " " Baltimore and No. 29 Hoopes ? As the chart indicates, the Hoopes connection joins that of Okely of Baltimore through No. 36. From this itis readily seen that No. 36 was the great-grandmother of No. 69, or indeed of any member of the eighth generation of Okely. The relationship of No. 29 to No. 69 is therefore that of great uncle, since 29 and 36 were brother and sister. If we wish to trace back still farther in the same line we have only to remember that the children of a great uncle bear the relationship of second cousin, their children third, theirs fourth, and so on. Other tracings may—

    be made inthe same way. [Ed.]

    The written detail of the de Guylpyn line shows nineteen generations toEleanor Hamilton. As fourteen of these show a direct descent from father to son, itis deemed unnecessary to diagram that portion of the family. This willaccount for the omission from Chart B of allnames back of that of Ann Gilpin. The earlier details of this branch willbe found else— where. [Ed.]

    The marriages shown in the charts use squares for the males and circles for the females. Dotted lines indicate cer—

    tain connections between the various families. [Ed.]

    The use of "half" numbers,c g., 2Sj4 Townsend record,— indicates that there isno further record of that marriage. [Ed.] —

    O. Okely of Bedford, and No. 1Okely of Lancaster refers to the one person.—

    No. 5. —de Guylpyn and No. 29 Hoopes is the same. No. 36. Hoopes and No. 15 Okely of Baltimore are

    identical. 29

  • — No. 29. —West and No. 66 Townsend is the same person. No. 29.—West and No. 29 Hoopes are one and the same. No. 32. Townsend is the immediate connection forOkely

    of Baltimore through the daughter No. 65, who married No. 35 Hoopes.—

    No. 6. Wilson record and No. 35 Hoopes record willindicate the connection between the families of Wilson and Okely.— [Ed.]—

    Note. Just as the work is receiving the last few touches deemed necessary before handing- it to the publisher, a book finds its way to the editor's sanctum. Ithas for its author Mr.Albert E. Morlan, late United States Consul at the port of Belize, British Honduras. The title of the workis "AHoosierin Honduras." The book iswellwritten and of absorbing interest from start to finish. Itdeals chiefly with the social and political aspect of Honduras and vicinity, and includes much of its early history and folk-lore.

    This seems hardly the place for an extended review, butIam so well pleased with Mr.Morlan's production that Ifeel at least some reference should be made to it.

    Itis written in a light, breezy style that is at once striking and unique, with a strong flavor of the tropics.

    Mr. Morlan's somewhat candid admission inhis preface that he stole a portion of it is quite humorous and taking, but willhardly be regarded in a serious light. Such a statement willat most be taken "witha barrel of salt" by those who have any acquaintance with the author. Inspite of such assurance, there is enough of the context that bears the unmistakable stamp of Mr. Morlan's individuality, and the reader who knows him willhave little trouble inmaking a separation, and returning to the rightful owner that which is not morally the product of his own brain.

    Todo the author full justice he is entitled to the thanks of any one who has the privilege of reading this entertaining book, and ifitbe true, as he says, that he is guilty of literary piracy, Ifeel sure that posterity willlook with charity on a first offense, and not impose a heavier" — sentence than six months twice a year."
