Some men they do delight in hound? And some in hawks take pleasure, Some do rejoice in war and wounds, And thereby goiri great treasure. Some men do love on sea to sail; And some rejoice in riding; Bat all their judgments do them fail— O! no such joy as chiding. When in the morn I ope my eyes, T o entertain the day, Before my husband e'en can rise, I chide him—then I pray. When I at table take my place, Whatever be the meat, I first do chide—and then say grace, If so dispo&'d to eaU Too fat, too lean, too hot, too cold, I ever do complain. Too raw, too roast, too young too old Faults I will And or feign. �4 Let it be flesh, or fowl or fish, It never shall be said, But I'll fi,nd fault with meat or dish, With master, or with maid. But when I go to bed at night, I heartily do weep, That I must part with my delight— 1 cannot scold and sleep. However this doth mitigate, And much abate my sorrow, That though to-night it be too late, I'll early scold to-morrow. T H E H I G H L A N D LAD-DIE. The Lawland lads think they are tine, But O! they're vain and idly gaudy; How much unlike the g r a c e d mein, And manly looks of my Highland laddre. O my bonny Highland laddie; My handsome, charming Highland laddie, May heaven still guard, and love reward, The Lawland lass and her Highland laddie. If I were free at will to choose T o be the wealthiest Lawland lady, �I'd tak young Donald without trews, With bonnet blue and belted plaidw. 0 my boniiie, fyc. Tlie brawest beau in burrows town, In a' his airs with art made ready, Compared to him, he's but a clown, He's finer far in's tartan plaidie. O my bonnicy fye.

B I L L Y AND N A N C Y ' S PARTING. I T was on a Monday morning, just at the break of day, Our ship she slipt her cable and we were bound to sea: The wind blew from the south-east, and from Greenock we were boond, The streets they were all garnished, with pretty maids all round. There was a pretty sailor all in his blooming years, H e came unto his true love, with bitter sighs and tears; And he came unto his true love, to let her understand, That he was going to leave her into some foreign land. Why say you so dear Billy? these words do break my heart, Come let us now be married, before that we do part: �7 These fourteen weeks nni longer. I'm going with child to the*, So stay at home dear Billy, be kind and marry me. If I should stay at home, my dear, another would take my place, It would be a shame to mc, love, besides a sad disgrace: The King he's wanting men, my dear, and I for one must go, And for my very life, love, I must not answer no. Well, I'll cut off my yellow hair, man's clothes I will put on, And I will go along with you, to be your waiting man: Like a true and faithful servant, I on my love will wait, No storm nor danger will I fear, let it be e'er so great. Your waist it is too slender, your fingers are too small, I fear you will not answer me, when I do on you call, W4ien cannons they do rattle, and bullets tbey do fly, And silver trumpets sounding, to drown the dreadful «ry. �8 If I should meat a bonny lass, that's merry, blythe and gay, And on her set my fancy, what would my Nancy say? What would I say dear Willy, but I would love her too, It's I would step aside, my dear, till she would pleasure you. Why, say you so, de-ar Nancy! you now do gain my heart; Come, let us now be married, 'before thpt we do part. This o u p l e now are married, and sailing o'er the main, All goodness may att?nd them, till they return again. T O G E T H E R L E T US RANGE, Together let U9 range the fields, Impearl'd with the morning dew, Or view the fruit the vineyard yields, Or the apples clustering bough. There in close embowered shades, Impervious to the noontide ray, By tinkling rills—or rosy beds, We'll love the sultry hours away.

A wealthy young 'squire of T amworth we hear, He courted a nobleman's daughter so fair; And for to marry her it was his intent, All friends and relations had given their consent. The time was appointed for the wedding-day, A young farmer was chosen the father to be ; As soon as the lady the farmer did spy, It flamed her heart, 0 my heart, she did cry. She turned from the 'squire, nothing she said, Instead of being married she went to her bed, The thoughts of the farmer still run in her mind, The way for to have him she soon then did find. Coat, waistcoat, and breeches she then did put on, And a-hunting she went with her dog and her gun She hunted all round where the farmer did dwell, Because in her heart she lov'd him so well. She oftentimes fired, but nothing she killed, At lengtn the young farmer came into the field; �3 Then for to talk with him it was her intent, With her dog and gun to meet him she went I thought you had been at the wedding, she cry'd, To wait on the/squire to give him his bride ; No, sir, said the farmer, if the truth I may tell, I'll not give her away, for I love her too well. Suppose that the lady should grant you her love, You know that the 'squire your rival will prove ; 0 then, says the farmer, I'll take sword in hand, By honour I'll gain her, or my life's at command. It pleased the lady to hear him so bold, And she gave him a glove that was flower'd with gold, She told him she found it in coming along, As she was a-hunting with her dog and her gun. The lady went home with her heart full of love, And she gave out a speech she had lost her glove ; And the man that does find it and bring it to me, The man that does find it, his bride I shall be. The farmer was pleased when he heard the news— With a heart full of joy to his lady he goes ; Dear honoured lady, I've pick'd up your glove, If you will be pleased to grant me your love. It is already granted, I will be your bride, 1 love the sweet breath of a farmer, she cry'd ; I'll be mistress of the dairy and milking the cows, While my jolly brisk farmer is whistling at plows. �4 THE ANSWER. The 'squire he returned in a furious mood, Swearing to be revenged in the farmer's blood; But fortune to the farmer proving more kind, Disappointed the 'squire of his cruel design. The 'squire and farmer by chance did meet, Says the 'squire to the farmer, you are undiscreet For taking from me my lovely sweet bride ; You shall either fight me, or die by my side. With all my whole heart, the farmer did cry, To fight for my jewel I'll never deny ; So to work with vigour they instantly went, But the 'squire yielding, gave the farmer content. And now they are married in great splendour we hear, The farmer possesses nine thousand a^year ; With his beautiful lady, and likewise his hall, He has men and maid-servants, and all at his call. Here's a health to plough-boys, the lady did cry, That I'm wed to a ploughman I'll never deny, Because they are men of honour, and that we are sure, And also do labour for both rich and poor. After the wedding she told of the fun, How she hunted the farmer with a dog and gun; But now I have catched him so fast in my snare, I'll enjoy him for ever, I vow and declare. �5 GET UP AND B A R THE DOOR. It fell upon a Martinmas time, And a gay time it was then, When our goodwife got puddings to make, And she boil'd them in a pan. The wind sae cauld blew south and north, And blew into the floor, Quoth our goodman to our goodwife, Get up and bar the door. My hand is in my hussy's skap, Goodman as you may see, An' it should na be barr'd this hundred year, It's no be barr'd for me. They made a paction 'tween them twa, They made it firm and sure, That the first word whae'er should speak, Should rise and bar the door Then by there came twa gentlemen, At twelve o'clock at night, And they could neither see house nor hall, Nor coal nor candle light. Now, whether is this a rich man's house ? Or whether is it a poor ? But ne'er a word would ane o' them speak, For barring of the door. �6 And first they ate the white puddings, And then they ate the black ; Tho' muckle thought the goodwife to hersel', Yet ne'er a word she spak'. Then said the one unto the other, Here man, take my knife, Do ye tak* aff the auld man's beard, And I'll kiss the goodwife. But there's nae water in the house, And what shall we do then? What ails you at the pudding bree That boils into the pan ? 0 up then started our goodman, An angry man was he ; Will ye kiss my wife before my face. And scad me wi' pudding bree ? Then up then started our goodwife, Gi'ed three skips on the floor ; Goodman, you've spoken the foremost word, Get up and bar the door. NOW Y E ' R E F A R AW A', LOVE. Oh ! now ye're far awa', love, Ye're far awa' frae me, O'er woodland glens, and rocky dens. And o'er the raging sea. �7 I stand upon the rocky shore, The rocky hills behind, I spy the distant ship afar, That's driven with the wind. I see the waves around her rise, Ten thousand billows roar ; The foaming surges lash the skies Behind her and before. Unto the winds I gave a sigh, Unto the waves a tear ; Up to the skies I send my cry, 0 for my dearest dear. Kind Providence, oh! hear my voice, Oh, wilt thou her life save ? Oh, keep her from the sunken rocks, And from a watery grave. For, though she's borne awa' frae me, Across the raging main, Our hapless loves may yet revive, Were we to meet again. THE CHOUGH AND CROW. The chough and crow to roost are gone, The owl sits on the tree, The hush'd wind wails with feeble moan, Like infant charity. �8 The wild fire dances on the fen, The red star sheds its ray ; Up-rouse ye then, my merry men. It is our opening day. Both child and nurse is fast asleep, And closed is every flower, And winking tapers faintly peep, High from my lady's bower ; Bewildered hinds with shortening ken, Shrink on their murky way ; Up-rouse ye then, my merry men, It is our opening day. Nor board nor garner own we now, Nor roof nor latched door, Nor kind mate, bound by holy vow, To bless a good man's store. Noon lulls us in a gloomy den, And night has grown our day ; Up-rouse ye $ien, my merry men, And use it as ye may. ! <00 1 O t ' ,99'rt 0 d.t !

ROGER AND NELLY. 'Twas in the prime of summer time, Quite pleasing was the weather, Young Roger would a wooing go, By the consent of his mother ; So he was drest all in his best. Quite smart without a wrinkle, A rusty sword down by his side, Tied on with beggars inkle. �6 Then Roger call'd to his man John, Go fetch me out odd Dobbin, Comb out his mane, cock up his tail, That it may not hang bobbing. With a saddle-tree bound down with hay, Which is a thing so proper, And a patten ring, tied in a string Of linsey-wolsey cropper * Then Roger to his chest would go Straightway to unlock it, Three halfpence of old Irish coin He put into his pocket. With the bridle best, pick'd from the rest, Which he had for a,stirrup ; A besom stick he had for a whip, With half a yard of cart-rope. Then Roger rose and took the road, They took him for a 'torney, With his pistol long, it was well load, For fear he should be robbed ; And every little while he said, Come mend your pace, old Dobbin; Should night o'ercast we'll lose our road, Then let us both keep joggin'. Then Roger to the town did go, For his doxy to inquire ; Making a rout he found hereout, JSText door to the town-crier. �7 Then he s^id to his dear Nell, Let us in wedlock join,; But first tell me thy fortune. And then I'll tell thee mine. * I have a box without a top, A spade without a handle, A pepper box, an old cart rope, And half a farthing candle; A washing tub, a pewther dish., A pestle and a mortar, A leathern bucket old and good, 'Twill serve us years in future. ' . M erit * too cpb miU VI Besides, says she, it is well known I have great store of linen, Full forty yards of hemp and yarn, And all "of my own spinning. 0 then, says Roger, it's well known I've Dobbin in the stable* A pig, a calf, a crown and half, And a rare old kitchen table. '.oibfiifu ' mi T»f ffo'i haA Besides, says he, I have a house, Fetches fifteen-pence a quarter, An old bedstead without a head, And a pot to catch your water. Come, said he, my dear sweet Nell, Let us to church be jogging ; With all my heart, I'll say my part. Go fetch me out old Dobbin. �8 So then to church they did repair, And in wedlock's bands were joined ; When all was o'er, to bed they went, And now their toils are ended.

PRINTED G L A S G O W : FOR THE BOOKSELLERS. 83. ��T H E LIFE AND A D V E N T U R E S OF PETER WILLIAMSON. I W A S born in the parish of A b o y n e , Aberdeen Shire, of respectable parents, who sent me very early to live with an aunt at A b e r d e e n ; when, under the years of pupillarity, one playing on the quay with others of my companions—being of a stout robust constitution—I was taken notice of by two fellows belonging to a vessel in the harbour, employed, in the trade called kidnapping ; that is stealing young children from their parents, and selling them as slaves in plantations abroad. Being market out by those monsters of impiety as their prey, I was cajoled on board the ship by them, where I was no sooner got, than they conducted me between the decks to some others they had kidnapped in the same manner. At that time, I had no sense of the fate that was destined for me, and spent the time in childish �4 amusements with my fellow-sufferers in the steerage, being never suffered to g o upon deck whilst the vessel lay in the harbour. In about a month's time the ship set sail for America. I cannot forget that, when we arrived on the coast we were destined for, a hard gale of wind sprung up from the S. E. and, to the captain's great surprise (he not thinking he was near land, although having been 11 weeks on the passage), about twelve o'clock at night, the ship struck on a sand bank off Cape M a y , near the Capes of Delaware, and, to the great terror and affright of the ship's company, in a 'short time was almost full of water. T h e boat was then hoisted out, into which the captain and his fellow villians, the crew, got with some difficulty, leaving me and my deluded companions to perish, as they then naturally concluded inevitable death to be our fate. Often, in my distresses and miseries since, have I wished that such had been the consequence, when in a state of innocence ! But Providence thought proper to reserve me for future trials of its goodness. Thus abandoned anddeserted, without the least prospect of relief, but threatened every moment with death, did these villians leave us. T h e cries, the shrieks and tears of a parcel of infants, had no effect on, or caused the least remorse in the breasts of these merciless wretches. Scarce can I say to which �5 to give the preference, whether to such as these, who have had the opportunity of knowing the Christian religion ; or to the savages herein after described, who profane not the gospel, or boast of humanity ; and if they act in a more brutal and butcherly manner, yet it is to their enemies, for the sake of plunder and the rewards offered them for their principles are alike — the love of sordid gain being both their motives. T h e ship being on a sand bank, which did not give way to let her deeper, we lay in the same deplorable condition until morning, when, though we saw the land of Cape M a y , at about a mile's distance, we knew not what would be our fate. T h e wind at length abated, and the captain, unwilling to lose all her cargo, about ten o'clock, sent some of his crew in a boat to the ship's side to bring us on shore, where we lay in a sort of a camp, made of the sails of the vessel, and such other things as we could get. T h e provisions lasted us until we were taken in by a vessel bound to Philadelphia, lying on this island, as well as I can recollect, near three weeks. V e r y little of the cargo was saved undamaged, and the vessel was entirely lost. When arrived and landed at Philadelphia, the capital of Pennsylvania, the captain had people enough who came to buy us. about £ 1 6 per head. H e , sold us at What became of my �6 unhappy companions, I never k n e w ; it was my lot to be sold to one of m y countrymen, whose name was H u g h Wilson, a North Britain, who had in his youth undergone the same fate as myself— having been kidnapped from St. Johnstown, in Scotland. Happy was my lot in falling into my countryman's power, as he was, contrary to many others of his calling, a humane, worthy, honest man. Having no children of his own, and commiserating my unhappy condition, he took great care of me until I was fit for business, and, about the 12th year of my age, set me about little trifles; in which state I continued until my 14th year, when I was more fit for harder work. During such my idle state, seeing my fellow-servants often reading and writing, it incited in me an inclination to learn, which I intimated to my master, telling him I should be very willing to serve a year longer than the contract by which I was sold, if he would indulge me in going to s c h o o l ; this he readily agreed to, saying that winter would be the best time. It being then summer, I waited with impatience for the other season ; but, to make some progress in my design, I got a Primer, and learned as much from my fellowservants as I could. At school, where I went every winter for five years, I made a tolerable proficiency, and have ever since been improving �7 myself at leisure hours. With this good master I continued till I was seventeen years old, when he died ; and, as a reward for my faithful service, he left me £ 2 0 0 currency, which was then about £ 1 5 0 sterling, his best horse, saddle, and all his wearing apparel. Being now my own master, having money in my pocket, and all other necessaries, I employed myself in j o b b i n g about the country, working for any one that would employ me, for near seven years, when, thinking I had money sufficient to follow some better way of life, I resolved to settle, but thought one step necessary thereto was to be married; for which purpose I applied to the daughter of a substantial planter, and found my suit was not unacceptable to her or her father, so that matters were soon concluded upon, and we married. M y father-in-law, in order to establish us in the world in an easy, if not affluent manner, made me a deed of gift of a tract of land, that lay, unhappily for me, as it has since proved, on the frontiers of the province of Pennsylvania, near the forks of Delaware, in Berks County, containing about 200 acres ; 30 of which were well cleared, and fit for immediate use, whereon was a good house and barn. T h e place pleasing me well, I settled on it, though it cost me the major part of my money in buyingstock,household furniture, and implements for out-door w o r k ; �8 and happy as I was in a good wife, yet did my felicity last me not l o n g ; for about the year 1754, the Indians in the French Interest, who had for a long time before ravaged and destroyed other parts of America unmolested, I may very properly say, began to be very troublesome on the frontiers of our province, where they generally appeared in small skulking parties, with yellings, shoutings, and antic postures, instead of trumpets and drums, committing great devastations. The Pennsylvanians little imagined at first that the Indians, guilty of such outrages and violence, were some of those who pretended to be in the English interest; which, alas! proved to be too true to many of us ; for, like the French in Europe, without regard to faith or treaties, they suddenly break out into furious, rapid outrages, and devastations, but soon retire precipitately having no stores nor provisions but what they meet with in their incursions. Some indeed carry a bag with biscuit or Indian corn therein, but not unless they have a long march to their destined place of action. And those French who were sent to dispossess us in that part of the world, being indefatigable in their duty, and continually contriving and using all manner of ways and means to win the Indians to their interest, many of whom had been too negligent, and sometimes, I may say, cruelly treated by those who �9 pretend to be their protectors and friends, found it no very difficult matter to get over to their interest many who belonged to those nations in amity with, us, especially as the rewards they gave them were so great, they paying for every scalp of an English person £ 1 5 sterling. Shocking to human nature were the barbarities daily committed by the savages, and are not to be paralleled in ail the volumes of history ! Scarce did a day pass but some unhappy family or other fell victims to savage cruelty. Terrible indeed it proved to me, as well as to many others; I that was now happy in an easy state of life, blessed with an affectionate and tender wife, who was possessed of all amiable qualities, to enable me to g o through the world with that peace and serenity of mind which every Christian wishes to possess, became on a sudden one of the most unhappy and deplorable of mankind. Scarce can I sustain the shock which for ever recoils on me, at thinking on the last time of seeing that good woman. T h e fatal 2d of October, 1754, she that day went from home to visit some of her relations. As I staid up later than usual, expecting her return, none being in the house besides myself, how great was my surprise, terror, and affright, when, about 11 o'clock at night, I heard the dismal war-cry, or war-whoop of the savages, and to my inexpressible grief, soon found my �10 house was attacted by them. I flew to my chamber window, and perceived them to be twelve in number. T h e y making several attempts to get in, I asked them what they wanted. T h e y gave me no answer, but continued beating, and trying to get the door opened. Judge, then, the condition I must be in, knowing the cruelty and merciless disposition of those savages, should I fall into their hands. T o escape which dreadful misfortune, having my gun loaded in my hand, I threatened them with death if they should not desist. But how vain and fruitless are the efforts of one man against the united force of so many, and of such merciless, undaunted, and bloodthirsty monsters as I had here to deal with. One of them that could speak a little English, threatened me in return, that, if I did not come out, they would burn me alive in the house—telling me farther, that they were no friends to the English myself ; but if I would come out and surrender prisoner, they would not kill me. M y terror and distraction at hearing this is not to be expressed by words, nor easily imagined by any person unless in the same condition. Little could I depend on the promises of such creatures, and yet, if I did not, inevitable death, by being burnt alive, must me my lot. Distracted as I was, in such deplorable circumstances, I chose to rely on the uncertainty of their fallacious promises, �11 rather than meet with certain death, by rejecting t h e m ; and, accordingly, went out of my house with my gun in my hand, not knowing what I did, or that I had it. Immediately on my approach, they rushed on me like so many tigers, and instantly disarmed me. Having me thus in their power, the merciless villians bound me to a tree near the d o o r ; they then went into the house, and plundered and destroyed every thing, carrying off what moveables they c o u l d ; the rest, together with the house, they set fire to, and consumed before my eyes. T h e barbarians, not satisfied with this, set fire to my barn, Stable, and out-houses, wherein were about 200 bushels of wheat, six cows, four horses, and five sheep, which were entirely consumed to ashes. During the conflagration to describe the thoughts, the fears, and misery that I felt, is utterly impossible, after this, they untied me, and gave me a great load to carry on my back, under which I travelled all that night with them, full of the most terrible apprehensions, and oppressed with the greatest anxiety of mind, lest my unhappy wife should likewise have fallen a prey to those cruel monsters. masters A t day-break, my infernal ordered me to lay down my load, when, tieing my hands again round a tree with a small cord, they then forced the blood out of my finger-ends. T h e y then kindled a fire near the �12 tree whereto I was bound, which filled me with dreadful agonies, concluding I was going to be made a sacrifice to their barbarity. T h e fire being thus made, they for some time danced round me after their manner, with various odd motions and antic gestures, whooping, halloeing, and crying in a frightful manner, as it is their custom. Having satisfied themselves in this sort of their mirth, they proceeded in a more tragical manner, taking the burning coals and sticks, flaming with fire at the ends, holding them near my face, head, hands, and feet, with a deal of monstrous pleasure and satisfaction, and at she same time threatening to burn me entirely if I made the least noise or motion of my body. T h u s tortured, as I was, almost to death, I suffered their brutal pleasure without being allowed to vent my inexpressible anguish otherwise than by shedding tears; even which, when these inhuman tormentors observed, with a shocking pleasure and alacrity, they would take fresh coals and apply near my eyes, telling me my face was wet, and that they would dry it for me. How I suffered these tortures, I have here faintly described, has been matter of wonder to me many times; but G o d enabled me to wait with more than common patience for a deliverance I daily prayed for. Having at length satisfied their brutal pleasure, �13 they sat round the fire and roasted their meat of which they had robbed my dwelling-. When they had prepared it, and satisfied their voracious appetites, they offered some to m e ; though it is easily imagined I had but little appetite to eat, after the tortures and miseries I had undergone, yet was I forced to seem pleased with what they offered me, lest, by refusing it, they had again resumed their hellish practices. What I could not eat, I contrived to get between the bark and the tree where I was fixed, they having unbound my hands until they imagined I had eat all they gave m e ; but then they again bound me as b e fore, in which deplorable condition was I forced to continue all that day. When the sun was set, they put out the fire, and covered the ashes with leaves, as is their usual custom, that the white people might not discover any traces or signs of their having been there. Going from thence along by the river, for the space of six miles, loaded as I was before, we arrived at a spot near the Apalachian mountains, where they hid their plunder under logs of wood , and Oh, shocking to relate ! from thence did these hellish monsters proceed to a neighbouring house, occupied by one Joseph Suider and his unhappy family, consisting of his wife, five children, and a young man, his servant. T h e y soon got admittance into the unfortunate man's house, where �14 they immediately, without the least remorse, and with more than brutal cruelty, scalped the tender parents and the unhappy children; nor could the tears, the shrieks, or cries of these unhappy victims prevent their horrid massacre; for having thus scalped them, and plundered the house of every thing that was moveable, they set fire to the same, where the poor creatures met their final doom amidst the flames, the hellish miscreants standing at the door, or as near the house as the flames would permit them, rejoicing and echoing back, in their diabolical manner, the piercing cries, heart-rending groans, and paternal and affectionate soothings, which issued from this most horrid sacrifice of an innocent family, not contented with what they had already done, they still continued their inordinate villiany, in making a general conflagration of the barn and stables, together with all the corn, horses, cows, and every thing on the place. Thinking the young man belonging to this unhappy family would be of some service to them in carrying part of their plunder, they spared his life, and loaded him and myself with what they had here got, and again marched to the Blue Hills, where they stowed their goods as before. M y fellow-sufferer could not long bear the cruel treatment which we were both obliged to suffer, and complaining bitterly to me of being unable �15 to proceed any farther, I endeavoured to condole him as much as lay in my power, to bear up under his afflictions, and wait with patience till, by the divine assistance, we should be delivered out of their clutches; but in vain, for he still continued his moans and tears, which one of the savages perceiving as we travelled on, instantly came up to us, and with his tomahawk gave him a blow on the head, which felled the unhappy youth to the ground, where they immediately scalped and left him. T h e suddenness of this murder shocked me to that degree, that I was in a manner like a statue, being quite motionless, expecting my fate would soon be the same; however, recovering my distracted thoughts, I dissembled the uneasiness and anguish which I felt, as well as I could, from the barbarians; but such was the terror that I was under, that for some time I scarce knew the days of the week, or what I did, so that, at this period, life indeed became a burden to me, and I regretted being saved from my first persecutors, the sailors. T h e horrid tact being completed, they kept on their course near the mountains, where they lay sculking four or five days, rejoicing at the plunder and store they had got. When became scarce, they made their way provisions towards Susquehana, where still, to add to the many barbarities they had already committed, passing near �16 another house inhabited by an unhappy old man, whose name was John Adams, with his wife and four small children; and, meeting withnoresistance, they immediately scalped the unhappy wife and her four children, before the good old man's eyes. Inhuman and horrid as this was, it did not satiate them, for when they had murdered the poor woman, they acted with her in such a brutal manner, as descency, or the remembrance of the crime, will not permit me to mention, and this even before the unhappy husband, who not being able to avoid the sight, and incapable of affording her the least relief, entreated them to put an end to his miserable being ; but they were as deaf and regardless to the tears, prayers, and entreaties of this venerable sufferer, as they had been to those of the others, and proceeded in their hellish purpose of burning and destroying his house, barn, cattle, hay, corn, and every thing the poor man a few hours before was master of. Having saved what they thought proper from the flames, they gave the old man, feeble, weak, and in the miserable condition he then was, as well as myself, burdens to carry, and loading themselves likewise with bread and meat, pursued their journey on towards the Great Swamp, where, being arrived, they lay for eight or nine days, sometimes diverting themselves in exercising the most atrocious and barbarous cruelties on �17 their unhappy victim, the old m a n ; sometimes they would strip him naked, and paint him all over with various sorts of colours, which they extracted, or made from herbs and roots ; at other times, they would pluck the white hairs from his venerable beard, and tauntingly tell him, he was a fool for living so long, and that they would shew him kindness in putting him out of the world ; to all which the poor creature could but vent his sighs, his tears, his moans, and entreaties, that, to my affrighted imagination, were enough to penetrate a heart of adamant, and soften the most obdurate savage. In vain, alas ! were all his tears, for daily did they tire themselves with the various means they tried to torment him— sometimes tying him to a tree, and whipping at others, scorching his furrowed cheeks with red-hot coals, and burning his legs, quite to the knees; but the good old man, instead of repining, or wickedly arraigning the divine justice, like many others in such cases, even in the greatest agonies, incessantly offered up his prayers to the Almighty, with the most fervent thanksgivings for his former mercies, and hoping the flames, then surrounding and burning his aged limbs, would soon send him to the blessful mansions of the just, to be a partaker of the blessings there. And during such his pious ejaculations, his infernal plages would come round him, mimicking �18 his heart-rending groans and piteous wailings One night after he had thus been tormented, whilst he and I were sitting together, condoling each other at the misfortunes and miseries we daily suffered, twenty scalps and three prisoners were brought in by another party of Indians. They had unhappily fallen in their hands in Cannojigge, a small town near the river Susquehana , chiefly inhabited by the Irish. These prisoners gave us some shocking accounts of the murders and devastations committed in their parts. T h e various and complicated actions of these barbarians would entirely fill a large volume ; but what I have already written, with a few other instances which I shall select from the information, will enable the reader to guess at the horrid treatment the English, and Indians in their interest, suffered for many years past. I shall therefore only mention, in a brief manner, those that suffered near the same time with This party who myself; now joined us, had it not, I found, in their power to begin their wickedness as soon as those who visited my habitation, the first of their tragedies being on the 25th day of October, 1754, when John Lewis, with his wife and three small children, fell sacrifices to their cruelty, and were miserably scalped and murdered, possessed his house, barn, and every thing he being burnt and destroyed. On the 28th, �19 Jacob Miller, with his wife and six of his family, together with every thing on his plantation, underwent the same fate. T h e 30th, the house, mill, barn, twenty head of cattle, two teams of horses, and every thing belonging to the unhappy George Folke, met with the like treatment— himself, wife, and all his miserable family, consisting scalped, of nine in number, being inhumanly then cut in pieces and given to the swine, which devoured them. I shall give another instance of the numberless and unheard of barbarities they related of the savages, and proceed to their own tragical end. substantial In short, one of the traders belonging to the province, having business that called him some miles up the country, fell into the hands of these devils, who not only scalped him, but immediately roasted him before he was dead ; then, like cannibals for want of other food, eat his whole body, and of his head made what they called an Indian pudding. From these few instances of savage cruelty, the deplorable situation of the defenceless inhabitants, and what they hourly suffered in that part of the globe, must strike the utmost terror to a human soul, and cause in every breast, the utmost detestation, nor only against the authors of such tragic scenes, but against those who, through perfidy, inattention, or pusillanimous and erroneous principles, suffered these savages at first, �20 unrepelled, or even unmolested, to commit such outrages and incredible depradations and murders ; for no torments, no barbarities that can be exercised on the human sacrifices they get into their power, are left untried or omitted. T h e three prisoners that were brought with these additional forces, constantly repining at their lot, and almost dead with their excessive hard treatment, contrived at last to make their ; but being far from their own settlements, and not knowing the country, were soon after met by some others of the tribes or nations at war with us, and brought back to their diabolical masters, who greatly rejoiced at having them again in their infernal power. creatures, T h e poor almost famished for want of sustenance, having had none during the time of their elopement, were no sooner in the clutches of the barbarians, than two of them were tied to a tree, and a great fire made round them, where they remained till they were terribly scorched and burnt, when one of the villians, with his scalping knife, ripe open their bellies, took out their entrails, and burnt them before their eyes, whilst the others were cutting, piercing, and tearing the flesh from their breasts, hands, arms, and legs, with red-hot irons, till they were dead. The third unhappy victim was reserved a few hours longer, to be, if possible, sacrificed in a more �21 cruel manner—his arms were tied close to his body, and a hole being dug deep enough for him to stand upright, he was put therein, and earth rammed and beat in all round his body, up to the neck, so that his head only appeared above the g r o u n d ; they then scalped him, and there let him remain for three or four hours in the greatest agonies; after which they made a small fire near his head, causing him to suffer the most excruciating torments imaginable, whilst the poor creature could only cry for mercy in killing him immediately, head. for his brains were boiling in his Inexorable to all his plaints, they continued the fire, whilst, shocking to behold, his eyes gushed out of their sockets; and such agonizing torments did the unhappy creature suffer for near two hours till he was quite dead! T h e y then cut off his head and buried it with the other bodies—my task being to dig the graves, which, feeble and terrified as I was, the dread of suffering the same fate, enabled me to do. I shall not here take up the reader's time, in vainly attempting to describe what I felt on such an occasion, but continue my narrative, as more equal to my abilities. A great snow now falling, the barbarians were a little fearful lest the white people should, by their traces, find which obliged out their, skulking retreats, them to make the best of their �22 way to their winter quarters, about two hundred miles farther from any plantation or inhabitants, where, after a long and tedious journey, being almost starved, I arrived with this infernal crew. The place where we were to rest, in their tongue is called Alamingo. There were found a number of wigwams full of their women and children. Dancing, shooting, and shouting, were their general amusements; and in all their festivals and lances they relate what successes they have had, and what damages they have sustained in their expeditions, theme. in which I became part of their T h e severity of the cold increasing, they stript me of my clothes, for their own use, and gave me such as they usually wore themselves, being a piece of blanket, a pair of mogganes, or shoe's, with a yard of coarse cloth to put round me instead of breeches. T o describe their dress and manner of living may not be altogether unacceptable to some of my readers; but, as the size of this book will not permit me to be so particular observe, as I might otherwise be, I shall just that they, in general, wear a white blanket, which in war-time they paint with various figures, but particularly the leaves of trees, in order to deceive their enemies, when in the woods Their mogganes are made of deer-skins, and the best sort have them bound round the edges with little beads and ribbands. On their legs they �23 wear pieces of blue cloth for stockings, some like our soldiers' splatter-dashes. T h e y reach higher than their knees, but not lower than their ancles. T h e y esteem them easy to run in. Breeches they never wear, but instead thereof two pieces of linen, one before and another behind. The better sort have shirts of the finest linen they can get, and to these some wear ruffles; but these they never put on till they have painted them of various Colours, which they get from the pecone root and bark of trees, and never pull them on to wash, but wear them till they fall to pieces. T h e y are very proud, and take great delight in wearing trinkets, such as silver plates, round their wrists and necks, with several strings of wampum, which is made of cotton, interwoven with pebbles, cockleshells, &c. down to their breasts, and from their ears and noses they have rings or beads which hand dangling an inch or two. T h e men have no beards, to prevent which they use certain instruments and tricks as soon it begins to grow. T h e hair of their heads is managed differently ; some pluck out and destroy all, except a lock hanging from the crown of the head, which they interweave with wampum and feathers of various colours. T h e women wear it very long, twisted down their backs with beads, feathers, and wampum, and on their heads most of them wear little coronets of brass or c o p p a r ; round �24 their middle they wear a blanket instead o f a petticoat. constant T h e females are very chaste and to their husbands; and if any y o u n g maiden should happen to have a child before marriage, she is never esteemed afterwards. A s for their food, they g e t it chiefly b y hunting and shooting, and boil or roast all the meat they eat. Their standing dish consists o f Indian corn soaked, then bruised and boiled. T h e i r bread is likewise made of wild oats, or sun-flower seeds. Their gun, tomahawk, scalping-knife, powder and shot, they carry with them in time o f war. T h e y in war decline open e n g a g e m e n t s ; bush fighting or skulking is their discipline; they are brave when engaged, having great fortitude in enduring tortures and are the most implacably vindictive people upon the e a r t h ; for they revenge the death of any relation, or any affront, whenever occasion presents, let the distance of time be never so remote. After l o n g enduring the greates of hardships with these Indians. I at last escaped out of their hand and went to Q u e b e c ; where, I was put on board a French Packet, bound for England, and after a passage of six weeks.

Told in first person, this autobiographic tale describes the life and miseries of Peter Williamson, who was kidnapped by slavers from the docks of Aberdeen when he was a child. Taken by the slavers to America, he was sold into bondage to a gentleman from North Britain who had experienced similar circumstances in his childhood and therefore treated Peter quite well, allowing him to pursue an education and rewarding him with freedom, a horse, and money upon his death. Peter worked his way up in the world, marrying well, gaining and working a tract of land of his own until the French-Indian War, at which point he was captured, enslaved, and tortured by Native Americans. The majority of the rest of the chapbook is dedicated to describing in gruesome detail the many acts of violence, murder, and torture that he witnesses and experiences while in the hands of his captors. The final few pages describe the fashion, food, warfare, and character of the Native Americans Peter observed during his time with this tribe before he escaped, fled to Quebec, and from there to England.

A When a boy, Harry Bluff left his friends and his home, And his dear native land, on the ocean to roam ; Like a sapling he sprung, he was fair to the view, And was true British oak, boys, when older he grew, Though his body was weak, and his hands they were soft, When the signal was heard, he the first went aloft; And the veterans all cried, he'll one day lead the van, For though rated a boy, he'd the soul of a man, And the heart of a true British sailor. When in manhood promoted, and burning for fame, Still in peace and in war Harry Bluff was the same ; So true to his love, and in battle so brave, The myrtle and laurel entwine o'er his grave. For his country he fell, when by victory crown'd, The flag shot away, fell in tatters around ; The foe thought he'd struck-—but he sung, avast! And the colours of England he nail'd to the mast, Then he died like a true British saiktf. �3 LOGIE 0 ' BUCHAN. 0 Logie o' Buchan, 0 L-ogie the laird, Thej hae taen awa Jamie that delv'd in the yard, Wha play'd on the pipe wi' the viol sae sma', They hae taen awa Jamie, the flower o' them a'. • CHORUS.

He said, think na lang, &c. My daddie looks sulky, my minnie looks spur, They frown upon Jamie because he is poor ; But daddie and minnie, although that they be, There's nane o' them like my Jamie to me 1 sit on my creepie, and spin at my wheel, And think on the laddie that loed me sae weel; He had but ae sixpence, he brake it in twa, And he gied me the hauf o't when he gaed awa. Then haste ye baqk, Jamie, and bide na awa, Then haste ye back, Jamie, and bide na awa ; The simmer is coming, cauld winter's awa, And ye'11 come and see me, in spite o' them a'. �4 TELL ME W H Y MEN W I L L DECEIVE US. Come tell me, says Julia, and tell me sincerely, Why men are so prone to deceive us ; 0, cruel to make us believe they love dearly, And then can perfidiously leave us. <m Fair censor, I answered, though such there may be, Yet judge not all so unkindly ; The heart that beats loyal, as mine does to thee, Can never turn rebel so blindly. I grant so, she answered, and yield to it fairly, Some few may be free from the treason, But then to our sorrow, we find it so rarely, To doubt and mistrust ye, we've reason. Not quite so, I told her, the love that is sincere Can but with existence be parted, Like the fond turtle-dove, 'twill be true to its dear, And never, no, never false-hearted. She smil'd, and yet blush'd like a rose in full bearing, And seem'd from her doubts to awaken ; Then own'd, freely own'd, like an angel declaring, She might, to be sure, be mistaken. 0 yes, and so sweetly her eyes made it known, Not a glance but a god might set store by, And fate from that moment enchain'd me ere now, And her lip was the altar I swore by. �5 'TWAS WITHIN A MILE OF EDINBURGH TOWN. 'Twas within a mile of Edinburgh town. In the rosy time of the year, Sweet flowers bloom'd, and the grass was down, And each shepherd woo'd his dear. Bonnie Jockie, blithe and gay, Kiss'd sweet Jenny making hay ; The lassie blush'd, and frowning cried, Na, na, it winna do ; I canna, canna, winna, winna, maunna buckle to Jcfckie was a wag who never would wed, Though lang he had followed the lass; Contented she earn'd and ate her brown bread, And merrily turn'd up the grass. Bonnie Jockie, blithe and free, Won her heart right merrily ; Yet still she blush'd, and frowning cried, Na, na, it winna do, I canna, canna, winna, winna, maunna buckle to. But when he vow'd he would make her his bride, Though his flocks and his herds were not few, She gied him her hand, and a kiss beside, And yow'd she'd for ever be true. Bonnie Jockie, blithe and free, Won her heart right merrily ; At kirk she nae mair frowning cried, Na, na, it winna do; I canna, canna, winna, winna, maunna buckle to. �OH NO, WE NEVER MENTION .HER. Oh no, we never mention her, Her name is never heard, My lips are now forbid to speak That once familiar word. From sport to sport they liurry me, To banish my regret; And when they win a smile from me, They think that I forget. They bid me seek in change of scene, The charms that others see, But were I in a foreign land, They'd find no change in me. 'Tis true that I behold no more The valley where we met, I do not see the hawthorn tree, But how can I forget ? For oh! there are so many things Recal the past to me ; The breeze upon the sunny hills, The billows of the sea ; The rosy tint that decks the sky, Before the sun is set; Aye, every leaf I look upon Forbids me to forget. They tell me she is happy now, The gayest of the gay ; They hint that she forgets me now, But heed not what they saj. �7 Like me, perhaps, she struggles With each feeling of regret; But if she loves as I have loved, She never can forget. OH, SAY NOT WOMAN'S LOVE IS BOUGHT -Oh say not woman's love is bought With vain and empty treasure ; Oh say not woman's heart is caught By every idle pleasure.
