 Weston took the hand of Captain Sedley, and in fit terms expressed his gratitude. "And we have to thank him for a thousand other favors since your poor father's death. I don't know what would have become of us without him." George renewed his thanks, and called down the blessing of Heaven on the benefactor of his mother. "Come, boys, we had better go," said Captain Sedley. The boat club withdrew, with the exception of Tony. "Mrs. Weston, I shall be happy to see you and all your family at my house at tea this evening," continued Captain Sedley. "Thank you, sir; we shall certainly come," replied the widow.
