followed by war-whoop, wild enough
to wake the dead, from circle drawn
completely around the city. And then
the British a.ssassins and their demon a.
lies OF the woods rushed forward to the
horrible assault, murderous enough to
characterize the era forever as ~ aimee
du Coup." The feeble garrison, only half
aroused, were Immediately overpowered;
and then ensued scene of massacre, ra-
pine, and plumber, which battles all de-
scriptiou. 1t was such as none but Brit
ish and brutal savages could perpetrate.
Peaceful inhabitants, who had never
harmed them, who had taken no part in
the previous war, and offered no resist.
ance to the present outrage, were shot
down On their hear,hstones, and their
wives aud daughters subjectedto atrocious
violation before their expiring eyes.
A band Of yelling savages led by the
representations as to the wealth Of St.
Louis had organized the expedition, at.
tackled the fine mansion of Jacques L.
Roux, the father of Annette. 1t occupied
but moment to batter down the doors.
In the parlor they found the family hasti-
ly collected, alarmed by the dcafening
uproar in the streets. The brave Old
Frenchman stood in the entrance, brand
ishing his naked sword, and resolved to
defend his wife and lovely daughter to
the utmost extremity. Several huge In
dams fell before his blade, with small
prospect of ever again rising.
"Down to hi, after your son, and III
take care Of the pretty Annette!" shouted
the hoarse voice of Mal!et, as he sent a
whizzing pistol bullet through the old
hero's bosom, who fell, pouring out his
hearts blood on his own costly carpet.
The daughter fell shrieking beside him,
throwing her arms in a convulsive clasp
around the bleeding form of her father
She was torn away by the tiendish traitor,
and carried, apparently lifeless, towards
her own bedroom. The fate of the NOR
rows bride seemed about to be sealed for
an agony worse than death, when sudden.
