A Father Sacrifices his Son.


About nine hundred years ago a Count
| yclept Liderik, was the ruler of Flanders 1t
happened once upon IA time that his sons
were amusing themselves by all sorts of
games and diversions before the gate Of the
castle. Now there was great dearth and
famine in the country. a poor woman, e.
maciated from care and distress, came along
with basket full of fruit which she offered
to the young gentlemen to enable her to buy
bread for her children And the eldest son
OF the Count bought of her all the fruit she
had and as he had no money with him, bid
her wait and he would return immediately
and pay her He hastened to the castle and
distributed the fruit among the young ladies
of the court, and had so much to say and
cut up SO many jokes that he forgot all a.
bout the poor peasant woman at the castle
gate But she stood outside with her eyes
fiXedly directed toward the castle to see
whether he would 1T soon return The
thought of her little children not having
anything to eat for so long a time, her
fear and anxiety increased every moment
At one time she thought of hurl ying home
to look after her children, but again conclu-
ded to wait little longer, until night came
and compelled her to go. Fatigued with
long standing up, faint with hunger, she
tOttered home, aud when with heavy heart
she entered the cottage, she missed the vol
ces of her children. Were they gone? A
las, the two little boys lay dead upon the
hoor-starved to death The mother broke
into transports of grief, now she would shed
bitter tears and utter loud lamentations,
now her heart would boil over with rage
and revenge. Thus she passed the night
with the two little corpses. At the break
Of day the distracted woman took her two
dead children up in her arms and wandered
to the castle and demanded admission to the
Count. When this was refused, she insis-
ted with such impetuosity thar it had to be
granted. The Count asked very compass
sionately what she wanted. But she laid
the dead bodies of her children upon the
floor sank down on her knees, and exclaim-
ed, If you are a true prince, o Lord of
Flanders, you will now hold impartial jnde-
ment without regard to person. Do you
know who has murdered these children He
eats at your table, he springs from your
blood. Your son is the murderer. " Count
Liderik was amazed and had the whole oc-
currence related to him, examined his son,
and secretly proceeded to the city, Teurnai.
There he submitted the case to the criminal
Judges, without mentioning the name of the
youth And the judges pronounced judg-
ment and said ''the youth had forfeited his
life The Count went home and had his
son executed by the sword.
