CAPTAIN CAMPBELL.
Captain Campbell, of the Guards, was a natural son of the Duke
of ----. He lost a thousand guineas to a Shark, which he could
not pay. Being questioned by the duke one day at dinner as to
the cause of his dejection, he reluctantly confessed the fact.
`Sir,' said his Grace, `you do not owe a farthing to the
blackguard. My steward settled with him this morning for _TEN_
guineas, and he was glad to take them, only saying--"I was
damned far North, and it was well it was no worse." '
