STRANGE ATTITUDES IN DEATH.
Men Who Have Been Instantly Killed
Preserving the Last Attitudes OF
Their Lives.

Dr. C. E. BrOpn-Septdrd IN Ia Nature
One Of tho most striking examples OF
the strange fact that am about to study
bourg, upon tho battlefield Of Beaumont
near Sedan, in 1870. lie found the corpse
of soldier. half sitting, half reclining,
upon the ground, and delicatoly holding
tin cup between his thumb and fore.
finger, and directing it toward mouth
that was wanting. The poor man had,
while in this position, been killed by
cannon ball that took off his head and all
of his face except tho lower jaw. The
body and arms ut the instant of death
had suddenly taken on q rigidity that
caused them afterward TO remain in tho
position in which they were whom tho
head was removed, Twenty-four hours
had elapsed since the battle when DIR.
Rossbach found tho body in this state.
A dota chmont of United States soldiers,
| foraging around Goldsboro', N. c.. camo
suddenly upon small band of southern
troopers who had dismounted. These
latter Immediately jumped into thoir
saddles, and all scamperod away, except
one, after being exposed to ono round of
fire. The soldier who did not escape was
sitting upright, ono foot In his stirrup.
In his loft hand he held the bride and
the horses name, while his right hand
grasped tho barrel of his rifle near tho
muzzle, the stock of tho gun resting on
the ground. The horseman's head was
turned toward his right shoulder, ap-
parently watching the approach of the
assailing party, Some Of tho soldiers Of
the lattor were preparing to fire again,
whom their officer ordered them to desist,

prisoner. The latter, upon baing ordered
to surrender, made no answer. When he
was approached and examined, il was
found that he WAS dead and rigid in tho
singular attitude that wO have just
described. 1t took considerable Of an
effort to force his left hand TO release
tho horses name, and to remove the rifle
from his right hand. When the body was
laid upon the ground the limbs preserved
the same position and the Same inilexi.
bility. This man had been struck by
two balls fired from Springfield rifles
One Of these had entered to the right o.
tho vCrtebral column, and had made IL:
exit from the body near the region o.
tho heart. II had loft its track upon the
sido Of the saddle, and had then dropped
to the ground, The horse had romained
quiet, us hO was fastened by halter.
The following is another incident; Az
; the battle Of Williamsburg DIR, Il. Il, Reed
examined the body of United State'
Zounve who had received ball in the
forehead just rs he was climbing over {
low fence. He. likewise, had preserved
tho last attitude of his life. ono of hi
legs was half over the fonce, while hi
body still remained behind. one hand
which was partially closed, was raiset
level with his forehead, with the pain
forward, as II to preserve himself fror
some imminent danger.
