the Thames; he massacred the people
of Worcester and ravaged the shire;
and he did these brave deeds and many
others all In two short years. Then he
went to his own place. His departure
was both fitting and dramatic. For

yearning and madness he had been

of his standard-bearer, Tostig the

Thane Osgod Clapa, whose name sur

A Danish wedding was always an occa-
sion for hard drinking. while the min
strels played and sang and the mum
mers tumbled. When men were well
drunken the pleasing sport of bone
throwing began; they threw the bones
at each other. The fun Of the game
consisted in the accident of man not
being able to dodge the bone which
struck him, and probably killed him.
Archbishop Alphege was thus killed.
The soldiers had no special desire 10
kill the old man; why couldn't he en-
ter into the spirit of the game and
dodge the bones? As he did not, OF
course, he was hit, and ms the bone was
a big and heavy bone, hurled by pow
erful hand, of course IT split open his
skull. One may be permitted to think
that perhaps King Hardacnut, who is
said to have fallen down suddenly when
he stood up to drink" did actually in

him down. and as he remained comatose
