They had an atrocious habit especially.
from which they obtained the namt
that posterity has preserved for them.
They first garroted their victims, and
dragged them In front OF n great fire,
where they burned the soes OF their
feet Then they demanded OF them
where their money and Jewels were
concealed. Such interrogatorles could
scarcely be resisted. It Is from this
that Is derived the apellation OF "chau-

Whether politically socially, relig-
