There is only one guillotine in
France, all the others having long
since been destroyed. The one of
Paris alone remains, but it travels
all over the country. In the course
of it's peregrinations the instrument
is governed by local customs, and
according to their nature are exc
cutions painful or painless.
In some departments the con-
demned is slowly taken to the place
of execution through the streets,
and toilet details depend on local
precedent.
Not long ago a prisoner was
taken to early mass, and mean
while the instrument of death
awaited him by the church door.
In Paris only fifteen minutes
intervene from the waking of the
prisoner to the fall of his head in
the basket, but in the country the
hungry knife is sometimes allowed
to wait for It's victim for hours. The
condemned is entirely in the keep
ing of the jailer, who is responsible
for the mans life-that is to say,
it is his duty to deliver to the gull
lotine living being.
But, as things are, the prisoner is
often needlessly tormented by the
timidity of the keeper, who, know
ing to what penalties he would be
subject, is often over anxious to
guard against suicide.-Parson's
Weekly.
