CHAPTER VII
31/37

She is the wonder and admiration of all beholders." From this same gentleman is the following letter, dated October 21, 1814:-- MY DEAR FRIEND,--My heart is so full that I do not know how to utter its emotions.

Thanks, all thanks to Heaven and our glorious heroes! My satisfaction is full; it is perfect.

I return your felicitations upon this happy and heart-cheering occasion, and hope it may serve to suppress every sigh and to enliven every hope that animates the bosoms of my friends at Bristol.

I enter into your feelings; I enjoy your triumph as much as if I was with you.

May it do you good and lengthen your lives.
