In spite OF the decteeGalready PRO
nounced against her, the murderess
was again put upon trial. / 7Sdt Fthe

was that she should proceed ito the

to which she shall be carried upon q
cart, barefovted, with a rope round
her neck and carrying lighted. torch
two pounds in weight, and there upon
her knees she shall say and declare
that she has wickedly poisoned her
father and her two brothers for
vengeance and through the desire to
possess their, property" After the
fulHlment Of this task she was' to be
taken to The Place ds' Ia Grsve. Where
hor head was to be cut Of aht" Her
body burnt, the ashes being afterward
scattered to the winds. Before the
execution of the extreme penalty, how
ever, she was to be put to the tor
ture, ordinary and extraordinary, in
order to compel her to reveal the
names CT her accomplices. The ques-
tior was to be applied by water.
AT the sight OF the apparatus of tor
ture the Marchioness declared that
she would make srll7confession. Shs
did so, and acknowledged that she he'd
given poison to her father twenty
eight or thirty times with her own
hands, and that she had used the yalss
