rew: the Irishman was so well pleased with his
countryman, (for, giving a very particular account of many places in
Ireland, and counterfeiting the brogue extremely well, he did not suspect
him to be any other,) that he entertained him kindly, and they passed the
day merrily together.

The next morning his host takes him out to see the city: Mr. Carew did
not content himself with idly gazing, as most of our modern travellers
do; but diligently inquired the names of the principal merchants and
places, and informed himself of all those circumstances, which could be
of any service to him. At length, seeing a very fine house, he inquired
whose it was; and being told Proprietor Penn's, who was just come from
England with his brother-in-law, Captain Frame, he takes leave of his

ship of that place, who was taken near the Capes. Captain Frame, seeing
him a lusty tall fellow, presently cries out, revenge! revenge! my brave
boy! you shall go along with me, and fight the dogs! Mr. Carew replied
with a sigh, that he should be glad to do that, but that, it was his
misfortune, by the severities and hardships in prison, to have lost the
use of his right arm by the dead palsy. This moved their compassion so
much, that each of them gave him a guinea; the proprietor telling him he
would take care to send him home with Captain Read, who would sail, very

in the negative, the proprietor told hi
