man In the district Among his friends
was the late Mr.. Carter, correspondent
In Paris OF the Graphic. who had a
country house In the neIshborhood of
Piscot. IT was Mr.. Carter who told me
the story Of the discovery to which
refer and which was made In his pres
ercc. The inn was badly supplied with
water, and the landlord employed some
mea 10 dig well I'm the orchard at the
back of the inn. When the diggers
had got down few feet they came
upon n skeleton. and. having removed
this. further exploration of the soil
revealed 20 them that they were dig
ging into a very graveyard. The au-
thoritles were communicated with. and
amid great excitement In the village
the orchard was thoroughly dug up.
Altogether the remains OF eighteen
bodies were found. Then the old peo-
pie Of Piscot began to tall OF the evil
stories which when they were children
they had heard In connection with the
house. The bones were removed and
solemnly Inferred in the neichboring
churchyard. and there the action Of
the authorities had pcrforce TO end. for
was evident that the authors of these
crimes had long since gone TO their last
sccount.
''ouite as grewsome was the hnd
made a few months ago by workmen
pulling down an old house In town in

but for more than a generation IL had
been the dwelling place OF worthy
family OF Breton artisans, good. pious
folk who were appalled, to learn that
for years they had lived and moved on
such unhallowcd ground.
The instances cited are OF crimes
committed long ago. but there is evil
dencc that this Kind OF robbery still
iourishes on the continent. Only quite
recently we heard the story OF an timer
ant druggist who was assalled In an
inn near Clcrmont Ferrand with all

of outrage. An unuoticed t-ioor in

forced the traveller TO hand over 500,
which was his entire fortune. The
man escaped and was able at once to
lay the culprits by the heels. for the
servant at the inn had witnessed the

lice. so that the story lacks the grew
