people. Mr.. Bruce was drawn by his
hair out Of the room and into the yard
where, with clubs, stones, knives,
swords and torture he was soon killed.
Mr.. Lewis and his teacher went out at
the back door into the yard and started
to climb upon an old shed, when a
stroke from spear brought the former
to the ground. With the same instru-

yond recognition. After this the mob
destroyed all foreign books and other
articles they could not use. The trunks
and boxes were broken open, but not
