waiting maid slit for some petty theft. This she told roe in the presence of the girl, who was standing in the room* She often had the helpless victims of her cruelty severely whipped, not scrupling herself to wield the instrument of torture, and with her own hands inflict severe chastise- ment. Her husband was less inhuman than his wife, but he was often goaded on by her to acts of great seve- rity. In his last illness I was sent for, and watched beside his death couch. The girl on whom he had... so often inflicted punishment, haunted his dying hours ; and when at length the king of terrors approached, he shrieked in utter agony of spirit, " Oh, the blackness of darkness, the black imps, I can see them all around me — take them away !" and amid such exclamations he expired.
