Book synopsis

Excerpt from Peter Pilgrim, or a Rambler's Recollections, Vol. 2 of 2 I left my rock, which was only rendered temporarily accessible, in consequence of a huge log having lodged against it, as well as against another nearer the bridge, forming a stepping-tree that the first swell of the żood must wash away, and hurried to the stran ger's assistance, without, however, having any very clear idea what ailed him. As I stepped upon the bridge, he seized me by the hand, and with the fervent ejaculation, Heaven be praised! Hurried me up to his side, pretty much with the air of one who, in mortal affright himself, has just snatched another out of imminent danger. Heaven be praised!

All this was very mysterious and incom prehensible to me; which my countenance showing, the gentleman - for indeed he was a man both of good appearance and manners - exclaimed, I beg your 'pardon: I believe I have been acting like a fool, and talking like one. But the appearance of a human being sitting on that rock, unmanned me: I thought it was myself, and - and In short, sir, I scarce know what I am saying. You seem amazed at my trepidation. Yet I can tell you of an adventure on that rock, which will excuse my weakness. Yes - that is, if you will but walk with me to some secure place - oto the island; for, I freely admit, my thoughts are here too much disordered.
