Description
He continued with l.ls uncle, and in this employment, until he took his departure from his native country, to, go in quest of another, where he hoped to find the happiness which the death of his parents had taken from him, and which nothing, now to be found in his own country, (''ould at all supply.
His own feelings on this subject, with some account of his situation while be re mained upon the island, of his departure for America, and his reception in this coun try, are found in a history of his past life, written by himself several years before his death. As this, to all the readers of these memoirs will doubtless be interesting, con sidered especially as the production of a heathen youth, the greater part of it will be inserted; with but few slight alterations. His own ideas, and in general, his own lan'' guage will be preserved.
