Othello a REALITY.
Shakespeare's Moor and Desdemona
Not Mere Creatures of Fiction.

Here Is now a piece of news which will
interest ell readers OF Shakespeare. 1t

whose misfortunes have touched the
hearts CT twenty generations No one,
however, had ever believed in their
real existence. But II seems, says a let

has been discovered In the papers OF the
Calergi family, of Milan, that Othello
was once a living human being But
he vas not a moor, and his name was
Nicolo Guerini. He married his cousin.
Desdemona Guerini. and the TWO fowl

place IN the Church OF ST. Francis, at
Retigennon, on the northern coast Of
Crete. whittier Desdemona had fed The
church still exists. but has been trans
formed into a mosque
From the Calergi papers II appears
that he had an author friend. who wrote
many stories. among which was the one
which inspired Shakespeare TO write
Othello. All this authors works were
republished In Turin In 1853. They were
translated into French in 1884. but there
was no English translation of them in
Shakespeare's time. Thus there is no
precise knowledge whence Shakespeare
took his rlot. In the original version
Desdemona (Which means THE maid of
the house OF devIls'D Is killed in a
strange manner. Othello leaves his
vengeance in the hands OF the ensign
Of his ship. This man lies in ambush
near the room where Desdemona Is
sleeping. She hears noise and awakes
othello then bids her rise and see what
the noise is. She rises and opens the
door. when she receives a bag of sand
on her head. She falls at the shock and
is then smothered by more bags of sand
