In the presence of this great assemblage, and of the chosen representatives of the people of these two great cities, of the Governor of the State of New York and of the President of the United States, the pleasing duty devolves upon me, as the official agent of the Board of Trustees of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge, to announce formally to the chief magistrates of these two municipalities that this Bridge is now ready to be opened for public use, and is subject in its control and management only to such restrictions as the people, to whom it belongs, may choose to impose upon themselves.

O free grace! Lord, who desired Thee to promise? who compelled Thee to swear? I will warrant you, God will never break His oath; therefore we may well have good ground to hope from such a good foundation as this, that God will never leave us indeed. Amen. Third.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen." Notwithstanding these words, the first episcopal act of the Bishop of Silchester drove many poor souls away from God. The effect upon Mark, had his religion been merely a pastime of adolescence, would have been disastrous.

"O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home." Amen was echoed by all. Their hearts were cheered, their fears calmed, as, amid that dark and raging ocean, those sounds of prayer and praise ascended to Heaven.

"And now having disposed of your father and your mother so much to your satisfaction, I'll just tell you that Ella's mother died in the convent at Dieppe, but whether she kept her secret or not I do not know; but this I do know, that if she didn't relieve her soul by confession, she's damned to all eternity. Thanks be to God for all his mercies. Amen!
