An Italian Superstition.

There is an Italian superstition that
whenever a king belonging to the
house of Savoy dies a huge eagle is to
be seen crossing the Alps over the val
ley Of Aosta in the direction Of Savoy,
and the conviction prevails among the
inhabitants of Aosta that this eagle
guides the soul of the dead sovereign
to join those of his ancestors in Savoy,
When King Charles Albert died al
Lisbon, King Victor Emmanuel died
at Rome and King Humbert was as
sasinated at Monza in 1900 the eagle
was seen winging its way across the
Alps. All other eagles crossing the
Alps don't seem to count for much.
