She then desired the child to run
to ;tie village, to apprize his father,
anil (lasire him to hring assistance.
The child did not lone an instant ;
hut hy an inconceivable fatality, met
on the road the pedlar, who had left

Having asked tb^thild where lie
was going, the latter answered ^K;

They 'returned to the farm where

not recognizing the voice of her hus

After having committed this use

time pressed, they might each mo- ;
metit return from mass, and he rouM
not succeed in getting admission but
by mounting on the roof and descend

tliis time he exhausted his rage in
menaces and ? imprecation^ against
the farmer's wife, who, almost faint
ing, saw nothing to deliver hef from
certain death. T)fis wretch had al
ready got into tlie chimuey, and was
about to enter into the chamber, when
tlie farmer's wife, collecting all her
force, drew, by sudden inspiration,
the palliasse of her bed to the edge
of tlie hearth, and there sat it on fire.
Tlie smoke in a few minutes envelo
ped tlie assassin, who not being able
to re-ascend, very soon fell into (he
fire half suffocated^, The courageous
farmer's wife, lost not her presence
of mind, but struck him several
HMows with a poker, which pat him
beyond the chance of recovering his
senses. Finally, exhausted with
fatigue and mental agony, she fell
dying on the carpet of her chamber,
and remained in this situation till the
moment when the farnier and his
servants returned from church lb 6e
witnesses of this horrible occurrence/
The dead body of tlie child Pinand,
at the gate of the farm house, was
the first spectacle that struck Hie eyes
of this unhappy father. Tbey for
ced open the gates, and after haying
recalled to life the farmer's' wife,
.they seized tlie two culprits who
weje delivered up W Justice. It i*

wounds, and be able to receive, the
punishment due to his crime.? The
two assassins will be immediately
brought before the oourt of assize of,
