There once prevailed q custom In
England of hanging persons convicted
OF piracy and other crimes on the
high seas, on the shore OF the ocean
at a point where the tides would wash
over their bodies. Harrison states in
his Description OF England" that
"Pirates and robbers by sea are con-
demned in the Court Of Admirable.
and hanged on the shores at low
water mark, where they are left till
three tides have overwashed them. T"
In Murray's Handbook OF Kent,
Execution-Dock, Wrapping. l., is
named as the place where pirates and
others committing capital crimes at
sea were hung at low water mark,
"there to remain till three tides had
overflowed them" The old chroni-
chler, Stow, also refers to the custom
In nearly the same language,-re-
marking Of certain locality, that i.
was "the usual place OF execution for
hanging OF pirates and sea rovers at
the low water mark, there to remain
till three tides had overfiowed them.
In this ancient practice the writer
finds an explanation OF Antonio's re-
mark to the Bodtsiodiil, In "The
Tempest, Act. l., Sc. /:
-Wouldt thcu might lie drowning
The washing of ten tides.

information about you. This same

@Not yet, for the porter fortunately,

Il will at once deliver myself up
for examination, and thus release you
all who have become entangled in my

~Iwould not answer for you life,
my young friend" answered Rasinski
gravely; for you have, as I have
been informed, assisted in the es-
