Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Will Watch, Vol. 2 of 3: From the Auto-Biography of a British Officer
IF ever there beat an honest heart in a human bosom, said I, there goes one! As Joe Royal turned sorrowfully away, and my boat slowly departed from the land. After the many proofs of kindness I had received at the Folly, I felt as if once more leaving home to fling myself upon the world. Youth, however, is the happy time for sorrow 'when the light spirit buoys itself upon a sea of troubles, with more ease than, in after years, it can muster for the support of the most trivial annoyances.
