Witch-Burning
By MARY ELIZABETH COUNSELMAN
They burned a witch in Bingham Square Last Friday afternoon. The faggot-smoke was blacker than The shadows on the moon; The licking flames were strangely green Like fox-fire on the fen... And she who cursed the godly folk Will never curse again.
They burned a witch in Bingham Square; Before the village gate. A huswife raised a skinny hand To damn her, tense with hate. A huckster threw a jagged stone— Her pallid cheek ran red... But there was something scornful in The way she held her head.
They burned a witch in Bingham Square; Her eyes were terror-wild. She was a slight, a comely maid, No taller than a child. They bound her fast against the stake And laughed to see her fear... Her red lips muttered secret words That no one dared to hear.
They burned a witch in Bingham Square— But ere she swooned with pain And ere her bones were sodden ash Beneath the sudden rain, She set her mark upon that throng... For time can not erase The echo of her anguished cries, The memory of her face.

| Temples of Xantoos ||
By HOWELL CALHOUN
Celestial fantasies of deathless night. Enraptured colonnades adorned with pearls, Resplendent guardians of crimson light. Expanse of darkness silently unfurls Among colossal ruins on this shore, That once was purled by Xantoos' rolling seas; Nothing remains upon this barren core Of Mars, but your palatial memories.
Your altars and magnificent black gods Still flash beneath the sapphire torches' flames, The fragrant ring of sacred flowers nods Beneath the monstrous idols' gilded frames. Your jeweled gates swing open on their bands Of gold; within, a lurid shadow stands.

# Weird Tales/Volume 29/Issue 2/Dead Singer

Dead Singer
By Edgar Daniel Kramer
He is gone Like the ghost of the dew on the mountain, Like the dawn That gleamed a red flame on the fountain.
He has heard The song of the mystical river And the bird That has sung in Saharin for ever.
He was here— Lo, he was the white-fire bringer! You drew near But to mock and revile the sweet singer.
Oh, he came And he laid his white soul on the altar, A pale flame That blazed and knew not how to falter!
Now you mourn— Far too late is your wailing and weeping; For your scorn You have his dead day in your keeping.
# Weird Tales/Volume 29/Issue 1/City in the Sea

City in the Sea
By Edgar Daniel Kramer
Under the feet of each dancing wave There is a city the waters lave, A silent city of greenish gloom, Where pallid sailors, like wraiths of doom, Go rolling down each coral street With sea-washed eyes, with dragging feet, That make no sound, as they wander on, Where there is neither dusk nor dawn, Where there is only the ghastly glow Of starless night that the fishes know.
Their veins now deaf to the call of sin, They make their way to the Mermaid Inn, Where pale mermaidens with seaweed hair Serve them their grog and return each stare With eyes unseeing, with lips as cold As winds that wail down the snowy wold; Though sailors evermore shout and sing, When they are having their giddy fling, No song is sung and no word is said By these wan sailors who all are dead.
Like shadows lost in a river fog, They sit for hours and sip their grog, The tomb-like stillness unmarred, unbroken By shuffling feet or a word outspoken, Until the doors on the inn swing wide To let strange sailormen crowd inside, And on the instant their tongues find life To cut the silence as with a knife, "One more ship garnered to Davy Jones! And these are her crew! God rest their bones!”
# Weird Tales/Volume 29/Issue 2/Song of the Necromancer

Song of the Necromancer
By Clark Ashton Smith
I will repeat a subtle rune— And thronging suns of Otherwhere Shall blaze upon the blinded air, And specters terrible and fair Shall walk the riven world at noon.
The star that was mine empery Is dust upon unwinnowed skies: But primal dreams have made me wise, And soon the shattered years shall rise To my remembered sorcery.
To mantic mutterings, brief and low, My palaces shall lift amain, My bowers bloom; I will regain The lips whereon my lips have lain In rose-red twilights long ago.
Before my murmured exorcism, The world, a wispy wraith, shall flee: A stranger earth, a weirder sea, Peopled with shapes of Faëry, Shall swell upon the waste abysm.
The pantheons of darkened stars Shall file athwart the crocus dawn; Goddess and Gorgon, Lar and faun Shall tread the amaranthine lawn, And giants fight their thunderous wars.
Like graven mountains of basalt, Dark idols of my demons there Shall tower through bright zones of air, Fronting the sun with level stare; And hell shall pave my deepest vault.
Phantom and fiend and sorcerer Shall serve me. . . till my term shall pass, And I become no more, alas! Than a frail shadow on the glass Before some latter conjurer.
# Winchester Partridge Manufacturing Company v. Funge/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
109 U.S. 651
Winchester Partridge Manufacturing Company v. Funge
The appellee filed a demurrer, and alleged therein as a ground of demurrer to the complaint, and to each count separately, that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action. The district court sustained the demurrer, and, the appellant electing to stand by its complaint, judgment was entered in favor of the appellee. The supreme court affirmed the judgment, and the case is here for review. We are of opinion that, on the terms of the receipt, which expressed the contract between the parties, the appellant, or its agents, were required to determine, on receiving the wagons, whether they were in good condition and merchantable order, and were at liberty to reject them if not meeting those conditions; that the receiving the 21 and proceeding to sell them was an acceptance of the 21 in payment pro tanto of the claim; that the contract for the payment in wagons was unfulfilled as to the 4 wagons not delivered; and that the price for which the 19 wagons were sold, and the selling value of the 2 not sold, have no bearing on the case under the first count, unless there be a surplus of the proceeds of sale, to be refunded to the appellee, under the contract.
As to the second count, it sets forth a good cause of action. That count does not involve, on its face, any question as to the contract evidenced by the receipt embodied in the first count.
The judgment of the supreme court is reversed, with direction to it to reverse the judgment of the district court, and to take or direct such further proceedings in the suit as may be according to law and in conformity with this opinion.

United States Supreme Court
109 U.S. 651
Winchester Partridge Manufacturing Company v. Funge
This is an appeal from the supreme court of Utah territory, in a suit brought in the First judicial district court of that territory, in March, 1882, by the appellant, a Wisconsin corporation, against the appellee, to recover the sum of $1,444.90, and interest from the filing of the complaint. The complaint contains two counts. The first sets forth that the appellee owed the appellant $2,832.40, for a balance of an account; that, for the purpose of settling such indebtedness, the appellee gave to the appellant's agents, on the twenty-eighth of October, 1880, six orders, on six different parties in Utah territory, for the delivery to such agents of wagons, 25 in number, the orders being severally for 1, 3, 2, 5, 9, and 5 wagons; that, at the same time, said agents executed and delivered to the appellee a receipt, which he accepted, as follows:
'Received from W. W. Funge orders on the respective parties named in the annexed list, for wagons therein mentioned, which wagons are to be received in payment of the claim of Winchester & Partridge Manufacturing Company against said Funge for twenty-eight hundred and thirty-two dollars and forty cents, provided the said wagons are delivered to said Winchester & Partridge Manufacturing Company, or their agents, W. W. Burton & Co., in good condition and merchantable order, at the respective places named in said orders, on presentation thereof; and it is understood and agreed that if said wagons are so delivered in good condition an promptly, as aforesaid, they are to be sold to the best advantage and for the highest prices that can be obtained for them, and any surplus of the proceeds thereof that may remain after paying said debt of $2,832.40, and the actual and necessary cost of selling the same, is to be refunded to said Funge, unless prior to that time he shall have been paid two hundred dollars, ($200), which he agrees, at their option, to take in lieu of said surplus, and in full settlement of his account with said company.'
-that 4 of the wagons covered by the order for 9 wagons were not delivered; that 21 of the wagons were delivered, but were none of them in good condition and merchantable order; and that the appellant had sold 19 of them for $1,807.43 net, and had made ineffectual efforts to sell the other 2. The second count sets forth an indebtedness of the appellee to the appellant of $2,832.40, for a balance of an account, in August, 1880, and a credit thereon of the net proceeds of certain wagons, leaving due $1,444.90, with interest from the filing of the complaint.
