CHAPTER xxi

The morning sun, bright and fierce
looked down upon curious sight. In a
stone yard was little group of persons
-Iroke, Burgess, Macklewain, Kirk
land and Rufus Dawes.
Three wooden slaves, seven feet high
were fastened together in the form of
triangle. The structure looked NOT nm.
like that made by gypsies to boil their
kettles. 10 this structure kirkland was
bound. His feet were fastened with
thongs to the base of the triangle; his
wrists, bound above his head, at the
apex. His body was then extended to
its fullest length, and his white back
shone in the sunlight. During his tying
up he had said nothing.
Nov, prisoner" said Troke to Dawes.
do your duty"
Rufus Dawes looked from the three
stern faces to Kirkland's white back.
and his face grew purple. In all his
experience he had never been asked to
fog before. He had been fogged often
enough. He picked up the heavy cat.
and drew its knotted lashes between his
fingers.
go on, Dawes" whispered Kirkland,
WAIuOuI luEuluB MS QeaQ. are no
more than another man."
Rufus Dawes lifted the cat, swung It
round his head, and brought it's knotted
cords down. The white back was in
stantly striped with six crimson bars
kirkland stihed a cry. 1t seemed to
him that he had been cut in half.
"Now, then, you scoundrel," roared
Burgess; separate your cats! What
do you mean by hogging a man that
fashion"
Rufus Dawes drew his crooked fin
gers through the entangled cords and
struck again. This time the blow was
more effective, and the blood beaded on
the skin. The boy did not cry: but
Macklewain saw his hands clutch the
slaves tightly, and the muscles of his
naked arms culver.
The third blow sounded as though it
had been struck upon a piece of raw
beef, and the crimson turned purple. The
hogging proceeded in silence for ten
strokes, and then Kirkland gave
screech like wounded horse.
"Oh!-Captain Burgess!-Dawes!-
Mr.. Troke!-Oh! oh!-Mercy!-Oh doc
tor!-Mr North!-Ohl oh! ohr'
The lads back, swollen into a hump,
now presented the appearance of a ripe
peach which a willful child has scored
with a pin. Dawes turning away from
his bloody handiwork, drew the cats
through his fingers twice. They were
beginning to get clogged a little.
Go on" said Burgess, with a nod.

This, of course, was mere bravado on
the part of the commandant. North
knew well that he would never dare TO
attempt any such violence, but the in.
suit stung him like the cut Of a whip.
he made a stride toward the command
ant, as though to seize him by the
throat, but checking himself In time,
stood still, with clinched hands, flashing
eyes and beard that bristled.
NORTH returned home in great agita-
ton. Twice he paused on his way to
the sitting room, and twice was he driv-
en- on by power stronger than his will.
he reached 1t at length, and opening
the cupboard, pulled out what he sought
"a bottle of brandy.
With this in his hand, all moderation
vanished. He raised it to his lips and
eagerly drank. Then, ashamed of what
he had done, he thrust the bottle back,
and made for his room. He wept, he
prayed, he fought with his desire as
with a madnes. He told himself that
another's life depended on his exertions;
that to give way to his fatal passion
was unworthy of an educated man and
reasoning being. In vain. In the
midst of his arguments he found him
self at the cupboard, with the bottle
at his lips, in an attitude that was at
once ludcrous and horrible.
His disease was terrible one. The
Rev. James North g4utleman, scholar
and Christian priest-was what the
world calls "a confirmed drunkard."

In another column may be found
communication signed by Charles Pc
sers, the republican candidate for reg
is.er Of deeds. In modest, frank and
straightforward statement he gives
some facts relating to his personal
Asstory which effectually dispose of
aonae of the misinformation which, in
ssationally or Internationally, has
neen circulated throughout the county.
IN an especially convincing manner
does he dispose of the rumor that
willie living in New York he worked
and voted for any but the republican
7soket.
The date of his return to his native
lawn, the circumstances attending it,
ana the purpose of it are also SO clear
H set forth that whatever force the
si1arge of his being non resident
syer had is effectually disposed of.
SO far as we have been able to dis
aoyer. 1t has never been regarded
srfme for one to return to the place of
zis birth. the home of his childhood,
whare family, social and business in
sarests would naturally lead him
especially when he does all this
months before there arose the re-
hottest chance Of there being a va
,auey in the Office which he now
sceks.

enpeag to the fair minded voters of
