TAR AND FEATHERS.
4 Coat Of These Means Excruciatins
Torture to the Victim.

Torture to the Victim.
People who read of tarring and
feathering know that the punishment
is very unpleasant one, but few i'm
agine how terribly painful and dan
gerous it is. Hardened tar is very
hard to remove from the skin, and
when feathers are added it forms a
kind Of cement that sticks closer than
q brother. AS soon as the tar sets the
victims suffering begins. It contracts
as it cools, and every one Of the little
veins on the body is pulled, causing the
most exquisite agony. The perspira-
ton is entirely stopped, and unless the
tar is removed death is certain to en-
sue.
But the removal is no easy task and
requires several days. The tar cannot
be softened by the application of heat
and must be peeled off bit by bit.
sweet oil being used to make the proc
ess less painful. The irritation to the
skin is very great, as the hairs cannot
be disengaged, but must be pulled out
or cut off. No man can be cleaned Of
tar in a single day, as the pain Of the
operation would be too excruc1ating
for endurance, and until this is done he
has to suffer from a pain like that Of
10000 pin pricks. Numbers of men
have died under the torture, and none
who have gone through it regard tar
and feathering as anything but most
fearful infliction.
