Suicides and Crossrond..

> 1t has been suggested that suicides
were buried at crossroads because Il
was usual to erect a cross at such
places. Those who were excluded from
holy rites were buried there as the
place next III sanctity to consecrated
ground. 1t was an old superstition
that the devil danced at crossroads
and that the erection Of cross thereat
would prevent such unseemly prac-
tees From this or some other super
stition, such as the fear that his ghost
might walk the earth, arose the GUS
tom Of driving stake through the sui
cide's body.
These plausible theories have gained
many advocates, but it Is more likely
that burial at crossroads was intended
as a mark Of indignity. The temples,
or rather affairs, Of the heather Teu-
tons were mostly at the junction Of
crossroads. The place of execution
was there, and criminals were sacri-
