A TERRIBLE REWARD.
cromwelPs Payment For the Capture
Of Pembroke Castle.

cromwelps Payment For the Capture
Of Pembroke Castle.
During the struggle between King
Charles and the parliament Pembroke
castle was so well fortified that Crom-
well, with all his cannon, could not
take it.
After many failures he gave up his
intention and began to march on for
Tenby. But before he had proceeded
far a country shoemaker came up to
Cromwell and asked him whether no
would reward him II he would tell him
how to get the castle into his posses
sion.
Cromwell, very glad of this offer,
consented. Then this old shoemaker,
glad to get some money. as no doubt
he was rather poor, told him that there
was a pipe through which they got
their water and that If he were to cut
the pipe the castle would surrender
Cromwell said, Il thank you for the
information you have given me, but as
you have turned traitor TO your coun-
trymen the only reward viii give you
Is that you shall be hanged on the very
next tree that / come to-"
Cromwell had the shoemaker hanged
and cut the pipe he had told him OF,
leading to the castle, which then sur
rendered.-London Telegraph.
