The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1907-09-13

Having satisfied our curiosity, and bound
every one in the house to secrecy, 1t be-
came Question what was to be done with
our Enigma. 1t was impossible that we
should keep such horror in the house, it
was equally impossible that such an awful
being should be let loose upon the world.
l confess that would have gladly voted
for the creatures destruction. But who
would shoulder the responsibility? Who
would undertake the execution of this hor-
rible semblance of human being?
The most singular part of the affair was
that we were entirely ignorant of what the
creature habitually fed on. Everything
in the way of nutriment that we could think
of was placed before it, but was never
touched. 1t was awful to stand by, day
after day, and see the clothes toss, and
hear the hard breathing and know that it
was dying.
Ten, twelve days, fortnight passed,
and it still lived The pulsations OF the
heart, however, were daily growing fain-
ter, and had now nearly ceased. 1t was
evident that the creature was dying for
want of sustenance. While this terrible
life struggle was going on felt miserable.
l could not sleep. Horrible as the Great
ure was, it was pitiable to think of the
pangs it was suffering.
At last it died Hammond and found
it cold and stiff one morning in the bed.
The heart had ceased to beat, the lungs
to inspire. We fastened to bury it in the
garden. 1t was a strange funeral, the
dropping of the viewless corpse into the
damp hole. The cast Of its form Ham
mond has still. As am on the eve of
long journey. from which may not re-
turn, l have drawn up this narrative of an
event the most singular that has ever come
to my knowledge.
