who were formed around three sides
Of the square. One thousand five hun
dred troops were drawn up under
the command Of Colonel GuiZOt. At
s O'Clock the prisoners, who had
been confined in coal cellars at the
back Of the pOrter's lodge Of the Hotel
de Vile, were brought out, their
hands tied behind their backs, and
then marched out by the main gate
way, through a double file of soldiers,
and having reached the center of a
wide area in front of the Hotel de
Vile, were ranged in a row and made
to kneel down close together. There
was nothing in the whole place but
three empty scavenger carts, which
stood IN line in rear Of the prisoners.
When the company was formed in
line and ready to fire, Colonel GuizOt
stepped forward and told the prison
ers IN few words that they were to
suffer death for having been caught in
the act Of setting fire to the buildings
and dwellings Of Paris.
At this moment the women uttered
piercing screams, and began to sway
themselves back and forth. An officer
stepped forward and made them keep
still with the fat OF his sword. In a
few moments a vOlley was fired, and
when the smoke cleared away q most
horrible sight was presented. Three
OF the women, who were in the mid
die row, between the men, were still
living and writhing in awful agony,
A second vOlley was fired, and a third
and not until the sixth did all the
prisoners cease to live. The dead
bodies were then flung into the scav-
enger carts, and carried away to be
buried.
