of Nuremberg.
In the five-cornered tower the reader
will naturally take a lively interest. Men
and women, doctors, lawyers, merchants,
lived in the olden time were either made
familiar with the tower itself or its de-
crees. This tower is the Oldest structure
in Nuremberg. In it w find all the in
struments of torture known to history.
The rack, thnmbscrews, and guillotine are
found in every European museum, and
the red gown worn by the executioner is
also quite common. There are instru-
ments of torture o.her than these to be
seen here that are rare. but I cannot say
that they were known only to the great
dynasty of which this town was the cen
ter. Some of these instruments suggest
novel modes of punishment, and there are
