Buy et Lady Hetty,
"Lady Uetty," the famous bang woman,
of UoBCemmon, loes tlian a buudreil yearn
age, a few hours rlde from Londen, was
of peasant origin, early left n widow, with
ene eliild, a boy, in tlie latter half of tlie
olghteonth century. Iler disposition wan
nllcnt and breeding what tbe Irish call
" dark," Having no friends, all her dull
ulToetlous concentrated lu her Hen. 8he
wan Miporler te ber cl.ifii iu many ways ;
hhe could read nnd write, unused accem
pilHhtneuts in thoaedays, and in thc.re arts
fibe iustrtieted the lad. Hlie was crushed
by bitter, hepeless poverty, lived with
dlflleulty by the labor of tier haudn, and
privation scorned te net like frost en her
soul, chilling and freezing the fount of
kinduesfl that springs in every woman's
heart. Iu truth, an unlovable oreaturo,
even when allewanccB are made for olr elr
cumstance. The boy was llvely and
warm hearted, full of merry, nlleotleuato
ways, winding himsell round his mother's
heart, and returning her leve with inter
est, the ene bright spot In her obscure,
monotonous life. Then, ns new, the tlde
of emigration (lowed westward, but
America seomed vastly furthnr oft' llo lle llo
fero the boy's imagination it Hut tercd a
hlmmeriii phantom, un HI Derade,
whero fortunes wcre te be had for tin tal:
ing ; n land of aunahlne, of marvels
Gradually he wen Hetty te his way of
thinking. Though it wrung her heart te
let him go, she agreed thore was no opoti epoti opeti
ing for him at home, nor hepe of fortune,
and se it oame te pass he steed ene morn
ing at the cress reads, pokets empty,
ceurage high, with n group of intendiug
emlgrnnts. while his mothor,cheking with
tearless grief, huug reutid his ncek, as if
she could net let him go, strained him iu
n last passioiiAte embrace, thou turning
without ence looking back, ran blindly te
her Ionely cabin, looked the deer, and
thing herself down lu agony of Berrow,
Whether he evor reached his destination,
or fell a victim te thoelimato,or whethorhe
wrote her lotters, which never reached her,
she did net knew. She never heard from
him after he sailed. Years passed, her
datk hair turned grayish, the lines hard
cned round her mouth.
Iluppier far if she ha Idled thou, peer
aud alone, than lived te earii the pile 3 el
bleed. One winter oveumg she sat by the
(be of diy sticks, and crouehed ever the
foehle b!a.i). Outside the dark rack sailed
aoieas Jho sky, the trees swayed thelr
heavy branclies with a dismal cieak, gusty
showers had falleti all day, Roddeuiug the
reads and grass; new tu wind was rising,
portending ominously a storm, nnd driving
the tinoke back into the blackencd
Ititoheu, which, with "the room," ns Irish
peasants call it, oemposcd her dcsolate
dwelling.
The storm grew leuder, the rain came
swishing nualiibt thowiudew with every
gust and its heavy monotonous patter was
heard in the lull of the blast. It feuud its
way through weak places in the thatch
and dripped slowly en the earthen fleer,
tilling the unoven places with llttle peels
of water. A. half starved blaek cat rub
bed ngaiust its mistress' knees. It was
0:30 when a loud, impatient knock was
heard at the deer. The wemau started
violently and listened ; it was repcattd
Lighting the euu oatidle the house allerd
ed, she advanced und asked who was
thoie.
" A, traveler soekiug shelter," replicd a
strange voice, nnd Detty opening the deer
saw n tall mau with a long black beard,
holding the bridle of a powerful horte. 11 e
strede into the cottage the wet gleaming
e:i his clothes aud the oeat of the animal.
" A tortible night," he said, Iu hearty,
genial tones. "They told me I'd reach
Hoscemmon before night, but my horae
cast a shue, und it took se Ieug te get it
repaired that this confounded storm ever
took me I am wet te the sklu, nnd if you
can me a bed nud setnu supper I shall stay
here if you have no objection, of ceurse.
" 'Tis net n night for a deg te be out,
'et aloue n Christian, sir ; but this is n
peer plaee for the likes of ytr houer,"
said llstty, who had been eyeiug the line
cloth el the geutlcman's clothes, his
splendid fur cloak, nnd ether signs of
wealth.
" Oh 1 I'm contented," he said, his
Emile disclosing the whitest nnd me.U
regubr teeth. " I've put up with werse
iu my time," and he proejeded te fasten
up tlui herse, while Hetty barred the deer
ngainai the iutrusive blast. She hastoned
te threw mero sticks en tee lire, drew n
scat the bhize, took the gentleman's damp,
heavy overcoat from him and made him
sit down. He placed the rush light iu its
queer nrm nnd socket oandlestiek, just
what the Angle-Saxons used, te ene tdde,
saying it pained his eyes, and stretchiug
out his (cot te the lire asked could she gtve
him nnything te eat.
"Net Thore is nothing lu the house,
nnd no money, neither," slie added with n
kind of defiance
The stranger looked sadly nud earnestly
nt her ; perhaps the idea of anyene want,
ing meney seemed otrange te a rieh man
His lips moved as if he wns about te
speak, but, chauging his mind, he drew
out n heavy purse and laid a geld pioce
en the table. " Uuy something with this
then," liu said, " I shall piy you well te
morrow rer your trouble."
She took it iu silence, trapped her dark
cloak about her, nnd passed out into the
wild night. Iu less than half an hour she
rapped for admittance aud entered Iaden
with bread, meat, eggs and spirits, net
forgetting n bundle of hay en her should
ers for the horse. The stranger rubbed
down and foddercd the animal, while she
prepared his frugal meal which she in
sisted ou her sharing.
Wheu he was refreshed nnd warmed,
she gave him up her bed saying she would
sleep by the lire, and he unwillingly con
sented te deprive her of her coueh.
He rctiicd nnd his i egul.tr breathing
seen nuneuueed he slept. Blie resumcu
her place by the hearth.
I knew net if it was tlien or nt the first
hlghtef the geld that tompUtlen te the
blackest treachery entered her mind
troaeliery that she new broedlugly
matured, It is painful te dissect umiml
Uke hers cold, oalletiH, covetous, Routed
by a hard llfe nud disappointment, long
ing for the easu Irem daily tell tunc meney
alone could bring, without moral scme cr
lc;u--Mive of death, se let me pass us
iiulil.ly ns may l this most shocking patt
of n tiue story j tUa resolved te de nwny
with the unknown t .ivebi.
An far ns oho could Ju Ige he wns net nn
Irshinan, certainly net a natlve of Iies
common ; none had bccu him enter her
cabin : she could unfasten the horee nnd
diive it fertli before morning. The meney
sne ncu spout lu feed ceum de easily
asueuntcd for by n pretended letter from
Ameiica: she had tceu tlie purse (11 led
te burttlug with geld, in short she argued
with herself thtxe was overy thing te gain
nnd llttle or nt tUk "The woman who
deliberates is lest," says Rousseau, nud se
It proved lu this instance. She murdered
the unhappy man nn he slept, possessed
borfeK of his papers nud valuables, net the
heuse frce, and sat by the dim rushlight
te oxnmlne tlie treasure,
It wen new nearly sunrise Was It the
oeld wind that blows bofero dawn that
ehlllcd her te the bone, aud made her
shiver as If in ague fit ? or, what did
theso papers contain ? Unhappy, wretched
mether 1 she had slain her son.
He had oemo back, successful, rieh be
yond his oxpectatlous, te take her by sur sur sur
prloe, te make her sharer in his geed
fortune She did net recognize in the
dark bearded man the slonder youth of
yours goue by. The temptatien was Irro Irre Irro
sistlbie te his laughter loving disposition.
He would pass himself off as a grand
gentleman until morning, then hew they
would laugh together wheu she kuew all ;
roveal hiuiBeH. Alas t the morning nover
dnwued for him.
The wemau's mind was unhlnged by
the appalling discovery. She shrieked
nud laughed nleud Uke a maniac. Then
rushing wildly out Inte the cold, gray
light, by her awful cries drew terrified
neighbors round her, te whom she yelled
she was a murderous, had killed her only
child. They thought she was mad, or
posscssed of n devil ; but ene bolder thau
the rest having vontured te onter her cot
tnge, rushed back horror stricken te con
firm her breken utterances. She was sc
oured, tried, feuud guilty and condemned.
Hoscemmon was fixed for the executien.
Theso wero the gee 1 old days, wheu it was
death te steal n shoep or forge a bigun bigun
ture, te rob a coach or take a herse, se the
eart that drew Hetty te the gallows con cen con
tained a goodly number of wrotehes, nil
iter inferiors in guilt. Eveiy avallable
feet of ground was threnged by a yelling,
hooting crowd ; overy window looking en
the jail was filled with sightscers, joking,
laughing, ohatterlng, but wheu the tum
bril stepped nt the gallows' feet hIIcuce
foil like a pall, aud the multitude held
the'r breath. Thore was u long pause ;
officials hurried te nnd fro. Thore wero
whiBpored consultations what had hap
pencd. The uews seen spread. The execu
tiouer was absent, was taken suddenly ill,
nnd had ssut an oxeuso ; at the last me
ment all was ojufusieu. It w.u the shor sher
ill's duty te carry out tlie suntcuoe, but
that gontlemau lUtly refused, saying he
would forfeit all he possessed llrst. What
was te be doeo 'I Even the criminals raised
their heada, a kind of dull hepe dawning
within thorn, nnd get mere or lees nnimn
ted. Suddenly from their eart broke a
woman's voieo, shrill and harsh. " Spare
me life, yer honor, spare me life, au I'll
hang them all." Tbe Hhoilirgrasped at
the unexpected offer. Bjtty was uubeund
by a waider, descended from the tumbril
amidst n murmur of horror and with
awful callousness proceeded te her task .
Never was nu oxecutieu better performed,
Iu a few minutes she steed the only living
beiug ou the scallbld, while around her
huug the ghastly bodies of her late com
pinions. I'he hangman died. Shu was
nominated his successor at n yearly ralary
