A Claim to Human Gratitude.

Charlotte COrday, the sad-faced. tender. hearted peasant girl of Normany, made great history by one desperate act!
 Sickened by the saturnalia of the French revoltltion, and moved to desperation as Robespierre and Marat were leading the flower f France to the guillotine, she de termned that she would put an end to Marat's bloody reign.
