up till the last moment. When the
husband learned that his wife had
only few hours to live he complete
ly lost his mind, and prepared to COM
nit suicide. When his wife had ex'
pired, which was late in the evening.
he went into the garden and cut all
the flowers, which he carried into the
house in armfuls and laid them on the
bed At midnight he wrote five long
letters to his own and to his wife's
relatives, and then shut himself up in
a room with the little girl, whom he
put to sleep. Afterwards he lit a
charcoal fire and lay down himself to
await death. In the morning the char
woman found a note at the door tell
ing her to look for the keys under the
door mat. She suspected that some
thing terrible had happened and at
once called the police. When they en-
tered the house they found the little
girl already dead and the father at
the last extremity. He was taken to
a hospital, but it is doubtful whether
he will recover. He said in his let
tiers that he was too fond Of his wife
to be able to survive her, and he
thought it best that their little daugh-
ter should also follow them in death.

his family, that of the Shehabs, was
of immemorial nobility when the

The Shehabs were once possessed of
wealth that would make even mod

only in the last few generations that
the family has been reduced to its

the thick wall his cries could not be
heard. He was forced to stay in the
vault all night and until the next
afternoon, when it SO happened there
was a funeral to the vault.
When the mourners opened the vault
they were terrified to see Lawson
