Swine In Old London.

We hear much today Of the dangers
of the London streets, but the inhab-
itants are spared some of the perils Of
an earlier age. The calendar Of coro-
ners' rolls for the city tells how the
many swine wandering about the
streets were once London's greatest
nuisances. In 1922 an inquest was held
on a child who was attacked in her
cradle by pig which had wandered
in through the open door Of her par
ents' shop. And a little earlier letters
patent were issued to an infant who
lost an ear from the same cause. The
letters certified the cause Of the acct
dent, lest later on the uncharitable
should say that the ear had been cut
or in the pillory by the knife Of the
law.-London Spectator.
