My imagined difficulty now was to get an apportu- nity to ship on board a vessel. But a chance soon presented itself, as the cook engaged in a certain vessel had been taken sick, I was taken in his place; the wages were to be ten dollars a month, and the voyage to Europe. She sailed on the same day I shipped, and I felt much relieved on quitting Boston, which had been the scene of that awful tragedy, in which I was doomed to play so conspicuous a part.
