' June 15th, 1771. 316 DAVID GABRICK and Borneo go off gaily from the abode of the dead to get married — where is not known ; to live together — how is not made plain ; to be happy — as you may please to imagine. Every one looks at every one else, wondering where the terrible catastrophe is, so pathetic and so touching ! The curtain comes down, and lea...ves the astonished spectator to ask himself what questions he will." ^ Such was the result of Grarrick's bad example !
