act, and the fact that she had at last taken
deadly revenge upon him seemed to be the only
thing which gave her satisfaction.
All this time she was trembling like q person
afflicted with the palsy, and her hands shook 10
that abe could not hold the glass containing the
medicine which the doctor had left for her, and
the attendants had to give it to her each time.
THEY THINK HER INSANE.
There was a wild look in her eyes like that Of
a raving maniac" said Matron Mclaughlin to
the day matron. Mrs. McOliffe, when she went
away this morning, =" and her story. which was
told in broken EXPLANATIONS all through the
night, was pitiful to listen to.
III ever there was an insane person, she
appeared to be one during those hours"
HE DESERVED IT."
Her continued cry was. HE deserved 1t. he
deserved it. He made me suffer until l could
bear it no longer"
After midnight this morning she began to
grow a little calmer. The terrible strain of the
past twelve hours began to tell upon her frail
constitution, aud the unnatural excitement
which she had undergone gave way to complete
exhaustion.
She lay on her cot and said nothing for a long
time, but rolled about restlessly, moaning and
signing continually.
HEART-RENDINa CRIES.
Sometimes the watchers thought she was
asleep, and then she would suddenly open her
eyes and roll them about in . wild way, and
utter a heart-rending groan or cry.
After 3 o'clock this morning she got a little
sleep. The matron says she does not know how
long it was, but it was certainly only for q short
time.
AT Z o'clock this morning, when Matron Nc
Olife came to take charge, she found Mrs.
S~outhwurth up and dressed. The drugs had
their affect. and the Drisonar WAS aDnarentlv
calm and in her right mind.
The first thing she said when the Matron
greeted her in her cell was
MY bed was very comfortable last night and
l enjoyed a little rest. 1t was better than 1
thought 1 would find in this place"
How long did you sleep last night p asked
the Matron.
II don't think it could have been more than
10 minutes" replied Mrs. Southworth, but l
cannot tell"
Then she asked suddenly.
WANTS TO SEE FRIENDS.
why is it that none Of my friends or my
family have been here to sec me? Have they
too deserted me? Oh, / hope some one will
come to see me to-day. l am al alone, and have
no one to help me-"
20 FOOD YET.
She had refused to take any food the night
before, and this morning when she was asked
If she would like some breakfast she said:

At 8 O'Clock she was permitted to leave her cell
and go out into the corridor with the other
prisoners.
