A Fearful Death.

CATER many years." says the Indian
Standard, "there was an execution at
Lucknow on Tuesday, the Doth ult. A
Moulvie of some little repute paid the
last penalty of the law. He was convict
ed of most brutal act of murder, albeit
not committed by his own hands, but
through means the most revolving TO hui
mainly, and was sentenced to death. He
kept small school, and one of the boys,
who had been absent for two or three
days, on coming to school was locked up
by him in small room. In this room a
snake had been some days previously,
but was not killed. A little while after
the boys incarceration he called out,
A snake I and implored the Moulvie to
open the door. 'Ohl he said, 'open
the door, and see for yourself I; for Ma
homed Russools sake, open the door.
The Moulvie would do nothing of the
kind. At last the poor boy was bitten
in severel places in the ankle, and he
called out, ooh now that / have been
bitten, open the door, The Moulvie
was inexorab le-he would not open the
door. About midday the father of the
boy came to the school and inquired for
his son, and inquired why he had not
come home for his usual meal. The
Moulvie said: Il have confined him
for his ABSENCE WELL said the
father, release him now Tho door
was then opened, and the corpse of q
lad IL years old, the only child of his
parents, was the sad and shocking sight
which presented itself, with the snake
coiled near his neck"
