The Dutch who settled in Elizabeth

execution that was the result Of an old
Dutch legend, which relates that in
olden times a reigning queen had hab-
it of bathing daily in human blood
No method was then known of ex-
tracing all the blood from the body,
SO that hundreds of lives were daily
sacrificed to satisfy her majesty's &C.
centric desire. As there was great
danger of depopulating the whole coun-
try, the court fool conceived the idea
of '.zffrow,"a wooden shell shaped
like woman and lined inside with
hundreds Of dageers.
The victim was placed inside and by
touching spring trap the machine
would close violently, and the unfortu-
nate wretch would be pierced through
and through with q hundred holes.
through which the life's blood would
quickly pass out. The blood would
pass down through pipe to the queens
bath tub, and when sufficient was in
she would battle. The machine sacri-
feed thousands of young maids and
boys, whose blood the queen preferred
to the blood of adults. Following the
regime of carnage, the machine was
used for the execution Of criminals up
to the eighteenth century. when it was
discarded in this and the mother conn-

heroine in the Song of the Shirt, "
worked till the stars shone on the roof.
Her eyesight failed, and the story goes
on: '.She saw at tho same time four
hands. four needles, and four seams.
She at first treated them as an illusion,
but at the end Of some days, in conse-
quence Of weakness and prolonged
mental anxiety. she imagined that she
was really sewing four seams at once,
and that God, touched by her misfor-
tune. had worked miracle in her
favor.
