A PETRIFIED WOMAN.-Captain G..
w. Kinney writes to the Yarmouth
Herald -
In the month Of January, 1874, peo-
pie residing at Woods Harbor observed
square rugged vessel at the Big Mud
Island, then uninhabited, and suppos-
ing her to be on shore there, party of
men went to the island in boat for the
purpose of rendering assistance.
On arriving at the island they found
the vessel to be at anchor in the South
Cove, and there being every appearance
of a gale from the southeast, they made
signs to the crew to leave her and come
on shore. In attempting to hoist out
the boat she was stove and lost, and the
wind and sea rising line was got from
the vessel to tree on the shore, upon
which the captain and two men made
their escape from the wreck, which was
now stranded and fast breaking up.
The remainder of the crew, consisting
of four sailors, steward. stewardess, and
one female passenger "a girl of sixteen,
and the now "petrified woman" were
drowned. Their bodies were found and
buried next day on the rugged headland
where they met their doom. There
they rested for more than thirty years,
when some modern Vandal was prompt
ed by morbid curiosity to dig into the
graves and disturb the last resting place
of poor humanity in order to feast his
eyes on the sight of few mouldering
bones.
While engaged in his ghoul like occu-
patton he or they lighted on the grave
OF the girl aud were no doubt surprised to
find the corpse was hard and entire
The story spread and the corpse was dug
up from time to time by various persons.
Even boys would pass leisure hour
when they landed from a fishing
schooner by digging up the ''stone wo-
man" and examining her. During this
time became proprietor of the island
and resided on it and hearing from time
to time of the digging operations I re-
solved to move the body to place where
it could rest in peace. 1 accordingly
dug it up and found it in a perfect state
of preservation, except the head, which
has decayed.
Every part of the body and limbs were
as hard as stone and about the color of
gray marble. I attribute its preserva-
walton to the presence of some mineral
contained in the water in which the
corpse was submerged, excepting the
head. buried it decently within easy
gunshot Of my house, and am confident
that I have put an end to the numerous
resurrections OF the petrified woman
The name of the vessel have been un-
able to learn. She belonged to Wind
sor, N. S., and her captains name was
Card. She had come from Liverpool,
Great Britain, to Shelburne, where she
had loaded with dressed granite for New
York.

the secret at that ball The other night,

his lips pressed her forehead in fatherly
affection now that his long solicitude
was at an end and his hard task well

That verA night Madge, scarcely able
to realize her joy, was betrothed to
Herbert Fitzallen, who when once the
secret was dissolved, would not wait
another hour.
"IIave not waited years." he said.
can my time abroad was waiting. and
then came back and found my Madge
more than ever had desired to hope"
But Madge in her freedom did not
forget poor Jack. Indeed she was al
most in trouble about her unkindness to
him when she heard that he had only
been play ing part, bearing all her teas
ing, and being purposely ungi acious
whenever she grew kind. But Ter.
trude consoled her eflectually OH that
score, by telling another secret after hei
kiss of congratulation.
Jack was indeed doing his best to
carry out the PLAN, she said; 'and he
was often grieved about you; but, dear
Madge, you must congratulate us now
not me, but us. Jack and made il
up between lis months ago, and we had
many quiet laugh about YOU
So Madge herself accepted the ring,
and wore her golden fctters by her own
free will after all; nor was there ever a
happier or more willing captive. AS
for Fitzallan, if he was not another Ar
thur, as the girls fancy had prompted
her to call him, he was 'bameless' as
the prince of the 'Idlys,' and far more
blest; and if he reigned over no realm.
he was at least king over one braye and
tender heart-a kingdom wide enough
to satisfy his desires, and prize which
time proved to be well worth his years
of waiting.-[Cassell's Magazine.
