A Greater than Knud Iverson

q .fr ..
"a, a case OF moral heroism exceeding that im-
pnted to Knud Iverson, occurred in Marquette
county, In this State, little over year ago,
the facts ofwhich were established BY judicial
investigation, and were related to Us BY Judge
Larrrabee, who presided at the trial.
A beautiful fair-haired, blue-eyed boy,
about nine years Of age, was taken from the
Orphan Asylum in Milwaukee, and adopted by
a respectable farmer Of Marquette, professor
OF religion and a member Of the Baptist per
suasioa. girl little older than the boy.
was also adopted IN the same family. Soon
after these children were installed in their new
home, the boy discovered criminal conduct on
the part of his new mother which he mentioned
to the little girl, and it thereby came to the
ears of the woman she Indignantly denied
the story to the satisfaction yot her husband,
and insisted that the boy should be whipped
until he confessed the falsehood.
The man-poor, weak bigot, impelled by a.
sense of religious duty, proceeded to the task
assigned him, by procuring bundle of rods,
stripping the child naked, and suspending him
by cord to- the rafters Of the house, and
whipping him at intervals for over two hours,
till the blood ran through the floor making a
pool upon the floor below; stopping only to
rest, and interrogate the boy, and getting no
other reply than, Pa, told the truth can
not tell lie : the woman all the time urging
hrn to 5'do his-duty.' The poor little hero,
at length released from his torture, threw his
arms around the neck Of his tormenter, kissed
him, and said, q Pa, / am so coId,' and died J.
1t appeared in evidence, upon the trial of this
man and woman for murder, that the child told
the truth, and suffered death by slow torture
rather than tell lie. The age of heroism
and martyrdom will not have passed till moth
ers cease to instil holy precepts into the minds
of their infant offspring. The man and wo-
man who murdered that angel child, are now
in the penitentiary at Waupon, to which they
were sentenced for ten years.-Ildiana Dailv
Argus. 1-a al Nix @-- aAA
