Mosr HoRRIBLE.-We find the following
narrative in the Cincinnati Sun of Tues
day last. Can it be true We can scarcely
regard it in any other light than as horri-
Bile fiction
Some three years since, family Of the
first standing in our city, was called to
mourn the loss of father who had tolled
to amass fortune for his wife and children.
Scarcely had he been laid in the grave,
when plan was fixed upon by the children,
two sons and daughter, too horrible to
think OF, yet TO true TO slumber, TO abduct
the mother who stood between them and
the property of the dead father. Accord
ingly, the mother was prevailed upon to GO
to me country where some relations resided.
The Journey was commenced, but on the
same evening, the old lady was returned to
this city, secretly taken to the garnet OF
their family mansion, and confined in n
room where no eve could reach but that oil
the daughter, the usurper of her mothers
rights. Here in solitude, this old woman
lay, with just food sufficient to keep her
alive. beyond the reach Of friends, a nuzzle
on her mouth to keep her from crying aloud
for help.
A story was raised some few weeks after,
that the old lady had died in the country
mourning was put on by the sister and the
two brothers, as we'll as other relations, who
actually supposed that the old lady and
owner of the property was dead and in her
grave

being absent, rushed to the spot with light,

miserable form of the poor old woman in
last agony of death What sight No
pen can describe the scene. Language
fails to give an adequate view of such a
spectacle.
On the return of the daughter her hus-
band and friends, by bribery and threats
succeeded in quclling the noise just bursting
forth, and had the body secretly buried, and
these devils incarnate now stand up in the
