prevent untimely resurrection At tlie er.d

which served a> a coffin, the white liucn

wis found to be mildewed. A hen the
bag was opened, the temporarily dead
man's arm. and legs weie found to be
shriveled allit stiff, and his head rsclintd,
corpse-like, on his shoulder, lo ail ap

life being discoverable. He was tben

various kinds, whereupon the arms and
legs gradually returned to their normal
state He then removed the wsx and cot
