military law and you owe me obedi-

III you give me that order, every
thing will be over between us for
life, and anyhow. will not obey the
order" retorted Nine Herail, with
remarkable feminine logic
II give You two minutes to re-
fleet" said the unfortunate captain,
whose emotions were getting terribly
wrought up.
He went bach 20 the. other room,
where Major Boucher was waiting
for him. took up his service revolver
and then returned to his wifes
room.
Have you reflected? Is It no?"
he asked, evidently anticipating his
wifes immovable obstiEacy.
II will never leave you alive. /
love you too much, Jean" said Ma
dame Herail.
Then you will leave dead" said
Captain Herail.
Captain Herall then aimed point
blank at his wife with his revolver
and fired three shots at her. She
fell to the ground dead. all three of
the bullets having passed through
her head. Major Bouchez rushed in,
saw the body, and, as he testified at
the trial, found Captain Herail in
tears and out of his mind with re.
morse.
Witnesses said that the sorrow of
Captain Herail was intense He was
continually weeping, calling on the
dead woman, and asking for his
three children. 1t was proved that
during the eleven years they were
married he had shown the deepest
affection for his wife. and 1t was
only the military disgrace she had
brought upon him that could have
caused him to commit the act.
He was married to his wife in 1904
when he was a lieutenant in the
First Regiment Of Cuirassiers She
was then Mile Henriette Courel
They both belonged TO wealthy fam
lilies and their marriage was an
event in fashionable society. They
began life under the happiest aus
pices. They were apparently we'll
matched couple. He was very good
tempered and easy going. while she
was a devoted wife and model
housekeeper, but very jealous and
She required that her husband
should have no interest in life apart
from her. At the annual military
manoeuvres she insisted on follow.
ing him around, and he, from fear OF
being made ridiculous. asked her to
stay away. but she would not do so.
His comrades called her his colonel.
During the testimony relating to
these facts Captain Herairs eyes
were wet with tears, and finally.
when 1t came to the description of
the scene OF the killing, he could
not restrain himself at all ana broke
into heart-rending sobs
Then the presiding officer ordered
him to stand up and relate what he
had to say In defence OF his act.
His tears continued to flow and at
first he was unable to utter an in
telligible sentence. He could be
heard sobbing:
"My poor wife! My poor wife!"
After a time he was able to make
a statement concerning his Difficult
ties with his wife, of which these
were the most striking passages:
IF she had only let me fulfill my
military duties we should have been
the happiest family possible. She
was very good and very clever, but
she never would permit me to be
away from her"

faced death from bullets, day after
day for months, without a tremor,

where the war had Just broken out.
Suddenly my wife. though still in
delicate health. announced that she
would go with me. that she would
make the campaign"
The captain continued the history
OF his curiously troubled married
life up to the time of the outbreak
of the present war. When he came
TO the recital OF the tragedy at Com.
piegne he lost all control OF himself
He said that the only thing with
which he could reproach himself was
having concealed from his military
snperiors the truth concerning his
difficulties with his wife.
Colonel Jacquillart, the president
Of the court martial, asked Captain
Herail sharply:
why did you not use some other
method than shooting your wife to
end the distressing situation?"
III tried every other means first"
replied the captain, land must have
been mad with fear of disgrace to
kill the wife loved so much"
Many military officers testified and
gave Captain Herail n splendid char.
acter. Colonel Meneville. who had
recommended that the captain should
not receive the Legion OF Honor on
account OF his disobeying the order
to send wives away. said that in
every other respect Herail was an

The verdict was received with
