ne see the murdered warrior mis- brother
slew him being prepared for cremation. The
body - stretched GA the ground, and close by
stands the sorrowlug widow. Kneeiing at
the feet and holding them as II stretching
iae limbs, i another woman. The corpse
las been opened under tho ribs, near by
stands weeping youth holding the extracted
leart, whilc another holds between his hands
what appears 10 be The brain.
Having mi.de our way into the mausoleum.
we found, besides tho statue. which weighed
5000 pounds, two large marble Erns the
brain having been deposited ia cae, the heart
IN the other. Just 50, rhe Egyptians IN
mummitying their dead, used to preserve IN
urns the internal parts Of the body.
Our Indian workmen had peculiar notions.
/ They called statues enchanted people, and in
F sistei that he who first laid hands on them
after they were exposed 10 the light Of day
would die within year.
/ We kept some of the matter found in the
urn, desiring to have it Gnalyzed; the rest We
burned. The men stood by, one flaming tAe
! ire with bis straw hat. Suddenly he darted
! Dff. All the others then took TO their heels
and scampered after him, not stopping till
several blocks away. When asked why they
lad run they said: "Ah. there was a strong
sneil Of sulphur, snd amid the smoke that
arose from his charred remains we saw the
/ form OF the enchanted prince."
