ABSTRACT
It is our duty now to gratify, as soon as possible, the curiosity of our readers respecting the transactions at Cranberry Hall. The fever of our heroine gradually abated, but left her constitution so much impaired, that the physicians dreaded a rapid decline. Her anxiety for the fate of Tickle, whose misfortunes she imputed to herself, and whose ruin she / was led to consider inevitable, preyed upon her spirits, and made her recovery hopeless. It was at last the opinion of the most celebrated medical gentlemen, who attended her, that a voyage to a more southern latitude would be most conducive to her health. She accordingly agreed to pass the winter at the island of Madeira; 525 and preparations were accordingly made for her journey to Philadelphia, where it was proposed she should embark. She made it a condition of her compliance, that Sancho should be immediately discharged from the confinement he had undergone; that Bab should bear her company, and Dr. Homily be permitted to visit her before their departure.
