'Dorothy/ said Ichabod, pale and trembling to his wife,' Dorothy, I have a secret, and if I thought you would keep it inviolable 1 would not hesitate to reveal it to you; but oh, Dorothy, women —' 'May 1 rely on your fidelity?' •Ichabod, you know you may.' 'Well, then —we are both ruined— undone —I have committed murder.' •Murder!' 'Yes, murder!—and have buried him at the foot of a tree in the or chard.' •Oh! awful! Ichabod. Committed murder! Then indeed we are ruined What will be done with us!' Ichabod left the room, and Dorothy hurried off to a neighbor's. Mrs. Drat tie observed a great change in Doro thy's countenance, and in her general appearance, so great as to induce her to inquire into the cause of it. 'Oh! Mrs. Prattle,' said Dorotli3*, 'I am the most miserable woman! I am ruined forever.' 'Mercy, Dorothy, how gloomy and distressed you look ! What has turned i p to make you appear so dejected ? Why, how you sigh, woman. Tell me the cause.' •I wish I might, Airs. Prattle, but t!>.e occasion of my unhuppinoss is a secret which I am not permitted to divulge.' •Oli, you may tell me, Dorothy—l shall never speak of it again.' •Will 3*oll promise never to reveal it to any person living?' •You know, Dorothy, I never tell secrets.' 'Well, Mrs. Prattle —I scarcely dare say it —103" husband has committed murder, and buried him at the foot ol a tree in the orchard—he told me of it himself. For heaven's sake don't name it to any one.' 'Murder!' Your husband commit ted murder! Indeed, indeed, Dorothy 3'ou have reason to believe 3'ourselt ruined. Poor thing, I pity 3-ou from 1113' heart.' Dorothy went home weeping and wringing her hands, and Mrs. Prattle, leaving her dough half kneaded, ami ht r infant ctying in the cradle, hasten cd to hold a tete-a tete with Mrs. Teli jtll. .Soon after this last confab was end ed, the report of Ichabod's having committed murder became general, and the disclosure of the fact war traced to his wife Dorothy. Process was immediately issued against b in b3* a magistrate, before whom, and in the presence of a multitude of anxious t pcetators, he gave the following ex planation,and plead guiily to the charge of murder. 'My object,' said Ichabod, in tin course 1 have pursued, was to test ni\ wife's capability of keeping a secret I have committed murder in as much as I killed a toad and buried hiui at the foot of a tree in 1113- own orchard How far 013' wife is capable of keeping a secret has been sufficiently proved, and with respect to the murder, thc-si who feel an interest in it are utlibertt to inspect the body.' in EsSay.
