The last time I saw Gabriel Marks alive was as we were crossing, at half-past ten at night, in the ferry boat that plied between Philadelphia and “Camden, where we lived.

The an- nonneement stunned me for some m0- ments. After that my first inquiries were for my wife and child. The Turn- keys who had been in the prison when I entered it were all passed away. The e' matron was dead. The porter had been P discharged for misconduct years ago; t‘ but I managed to find out, by patient 11 enquiry, where he was living,in apparent a penury and extreme old age. I had i done a great deal of extra work during ’my prison life, and had earned for my“ self a pretty little sum of money. With this I purchased the necessaries to make a decent appearance, and commenced the other search, of which I shall pre- sently have more to say. In the first ”place, after great diligence and much inquiry, I found the ’age porter, and from him I learned that my wife had died on the Ivery day I began the term of my imprisonment, and that the boy: had been sent to the Foundling HOSpital. That was a great blow to me.
