"The Old English Baron: a Gothic Story"


Sir Philip desired Lord Lovel to entertain this messenger in his
service. That good knight lived to extreme old age in honour and
happiness, and died in the arms of his beloved Edmund, who also
performed the last duties to his faithful Joseph.
Father Oswald lived many years in the family as chaplain; he retired
from thence at length, and died in his own monastery.
Edmund Lord Lovel lived to old age, in peace, honour and happiness; and
died in the arms of his children.
Sir Philip Harclay caused the papers relating to his son's history to
be collected together; the first part of it was written under his own
eye in Yorkshire, the subsequent parts by Father Oswald at the Castle
of Lovel. All these, when together, furnish a striking lesson to
posterity, of the over-ruling hand of Providence, and the certainty of
RETRIBUTION.
