Apose Inc dying on The Changes,
Lar vessels under the arnpits, no at
lenllon vas paid to these.
The women yet continued their additions,
being careful, however, to keep close to the
shore or the bamboo hurdles. One day in the
month of April last, one of their number, with
a loud wild shrek, suddenly disappeared but,
as she was young and robust, she succeeded by
struggling vigorously, in disengaging herself
from the grasp of her enemy. Her companions,
among whom she suddenly reappeared from
the boiling and turmoil of the water, suspected
the presence Of a monstrous crocodile, and had
fled in alright.
But hardly did she recover from her emotion
when she related to their great astonishment,
not that she had been attacked by a crocodile,
but by a mana real man. In fact, this man,
assisted by his skill as a diver, had glided daily
into the baths, covering his head with a vase,
through which he had drilled a couple of holes.
From amid the river foliage he watched the
bathers to discover which among them was
most richly ornamented, for the Indian women
always battle with their jewelry upon them.
These he then seized, and drowned aud robbed.
Justice finally succeeded in arresting the villain.
He was lately hung on the quay Of Benares, to
the very great satisfaction of the women of that
