The men thus dressed, came for the children, re- ceived the reward, and set off on their journey. The little ones prattled innocent- ly on the road talked of heir play things, and what pleasure they should have tvkh their cousins in London They went on till they reached a great wood, when one of the ruffians was touch- ed with their innocence, and was desirous not to kill them, but to leave them in the wood, and get off with the money. The other would not consent to the proposal, but insisted t...hat they should be killed. Af- ter a great many words they drew their sharp swords, and iiegan fighting. The villain who wished to murder these innocent babes, was run through the body, and killed on the spot. The other bu- ried him in a pit, and went away, leaving the children behind ; telling them he was 10 only going to get them some food. They sat down on the grass to wait for his re- turn, where they ' passed away some hours in telling little stories and tales to one another. As night approach- ed, they began to grow pen- sive and melancholy, and to cry bitterly both with cold and hunger.
