How IA Whole Family Became
Blind.

FROM the Cambridge Mass. Heraldl
There lives family in Dorchester
county, every dark eyed male member
of which for the past fifty years has
gone blind at the age of twenty TO
twenty i've years. Those with blue
ewes escaped the terrible affiictiOn.
There is a tradition about this singular
circumstance which we lay before our
readers rs we heard il; Some sixty
wears since, so goes the stony, beau
iiful black eyed girl of twenty, from
some cause or other, lost her eye'slght.
Her misfortune brought penury and
want with it. Being reduced TO beg.
gary. she was wont to go abroad ask
ing aims. During one ofher journeys
she visited the neighborhood in which
resided the ancestors of those who are
sight>less. Instead Of her helpless con
dition exciting, as il should have done,
feeling Of sympathy, she was treated
with ridicule by some of the younger
members of the house her evil star had
led her into. Two of the boys, as q
matter of mere deviltry, took her out,
promising to conduct her to & place
where plenty awaited. Instead ofgiv>
ing hera safe conduct. they carried her
into swamp and left her. Ii is said
that she cried out beseeching them TO
put her on the public road, but they
needed not her lamentations. FiHd-
ing herself about 10 bo deserted among
the tangled brushwood, she turned her
PRAYER to curse. asking her Maker.
in her revengeful anguish, to punish
her betrayers by making their offspring
for seven generations as helpless as she
was. Ii is said that she was found
dead in the swamp having perished
from hunger and cold. This may ap-
pear somewhat romantic, but whether
the traditionary past Of it be false or
true, it is assuredly n fact that the
male offspring of the family referred
to, lose their sight as indicated. Huns
dreds of persons in Dorchester county
will verify il.
