About twenty of these priests were
imprisoned ON Friday, the 10Th. at
Fort Bicetre. On Thursday, when this
had to be abandoned; they were hur-
ried away to the Gobelins, on the
promise of being set at liberty. In.
stead of this they were driven to work
ON the barricades, tten dragged to a
prison in the Avenue dItalie. At4,
in the afternoon they were visited by
certain Nj. .Cerisier, with company
of the One Hundred and First Battal.

erately loaded in their presence.
The outside door of the prison was
then thrown open, and they were Or
dered to leave it one by one. As they
marched out singly they were shot by
order of Cerisier with the exception Of
the narrator of the occurrence, and one
or two Others, who were missed or
slightly wounded and escaped. Twelve
bodies Of these unhappy men have al.
ready been recovered. There is also
no doubt that NJ. Gustave Chaudey,
one of the principal editors of the Sic
Gle, and literary man of some emf
hence and high character; who had in
Cured the displeasure of the Commu-
nists, had been SHOT by tllen:.-fco
