terrible choking and strangling paroxysm

An Incident at Lucknow
TT is curious how some terrible catastrophe
Yields a crop OF dream warnings. The ter
Tible Indian mutiny recorded many; especially
such episodes in it as the siege of Lucknow,
and the awful massacre of Cawnpore. About
"a wear before the flame of discomfort spread
among the Hindus, the wife OF General Tor
rens dreamed that she saw her daughter, Mrs.
HAYES and the latter's husband, Captain
in the army, attacked by the savage SeP"ys
or native troopers. A fearful struggle cnsued,
in which Captain Hayes was killed with all
those attendant circumstances of horror
that make the mutiny history one long night
mare.
Mrs Torrens was deeply impressed by the
vivilness of that dream, and the next morning
wrote to Bombay, imploring her daughter and
children to come home at once. And she
wrote again and again showing the profound
impression made, and was altogether SO earnest,
emphatic, and lnSlStent thdt MrS. Hayes leIt
obliged at least to send home her children,
while she herself remained little longer with
her husband. 1t IS well known at the British
India Office in London that Captain Hayes
fell into the hands of d party Of Mohammedan
Sepoys, who first put his eyes out, and then
killed him by inches with most lendish cruelty.
His wife, however, although suffering all the
horrors of the siege of Lucknow, escaped with
her life and was taken home after the relief
of the city by Sir Colin Campbell.
