And winters sunlight dies afar,
When green and purple dusk crceps down
And hides the harbor and the town,
Each night far out to sea beam
Of pale, wan light sends forth its gleam
Across the peaceful, dark ming tides
And marks the lightship where she rides.
When, tempest tossed, the ships slip by
The foam hid hcadland, and the sky
Is torn with wrack Of scuddng cloud,
And winds Of winter cry aloud,

Above the tcmpcst's moan and rave,
A voice comes o'cr the troubled tides
And marks where yet the lightship ridesl

grain and orthouses. He then entered
the house by means of barrel placed
near a window.
The mother and one daughter were
sleeping downstairs, and the other
daughter, a grandchild and three SONS
were upstairs. It is supposed that
those downstairs fell first under the
assassin's knife and that the others
were killed as they came down the
stairs, being awakened by the fire and
the cries of those below.

was struck by the knife three times,
