Corbeddu's Career in Sardinia Like
That of Dick Turpln.
From tho London I'ost
Not long ago I described the death
of tho fiunous Sardinran brigand, Cor
beddu, who was killed In a light with
the carabineers. A compleV" history
of bis career Is now obtainable. It Is
Interesting for Its Dick Turpln-llke
episodes. Curbeddu was no ordlnnry
brigand. He did not go about shoot
ing fishermen or muleteers for the sake
of the few llres they might have In
their pockets, but he carried on his
profession in a manner so distinguished
as to innko him the king of tho Sar
dinian outlaws. He was born in 1S14
at Ollena, In Sardinia, of a well-to-do
faijilly, and until called to do military
Bervlee ho lived an agricultural life,

heard that a certain priest was weal
thy, he with an accomplice, made a
rtnlse key and enjtered tho print's
house. To the great surprise of the
robbers, the priest was at supper. They
seized, bound nnd gagged him nnd
stole 1,300 lire from his bureau. The
authors of the crime were never dis
covered until Corbeddu in nfter years
boosted of his achievement.
After returning to Sard'ni.l from his
military service Corbeddua was re
peatedly tried for cattle stealing, until
one day be failed to answer to a sum
mons and took to the hills. At this
point began his celebrated exploits.
First, with an armed band, he stole a
sum of money from a house at Lul.a
In ISSl. The same year be and other
outlaws killed and robbed a man at
Sanvero Mills. In 1SS1 ho fought and
nearly killed a carabineer at Fonnl. In
1885, lie, with some companions, killed
a carabineer and nearly killed an in
spector and another carabineer at
Oranl and stole a sum of 14,000 lire.
Next year he robbed the post and de
prived Count Spada, who was In the
diligence, of his watch .rings, gun and
big bootti. The big boots Corbeddu
afterward wore In honor of his exploit.
In 1891 be killed nnd robbed a wealthy
man at Borore. Many other crimes
were put down to him or were com
mitted by minor brigands under his or
ders. Itewards amounting In all to
22.000 lire were offered for his capture,
but In vain.
Ills most famous exploit was not the
capture, but the liberation of two
Frenchmen. MM. l'rnlle and I'aty, who
had been seized nnd held to blackmail
by other brigands. Their capture gave
rise to a violent campaign In the whole
French and Italian press against the
condition of the Sardinian police, and
Slgnor Ciispl, who was then premier,
ordered the authorities In the Island to
liberate the two Frenchmen at all costs.
All the carabineers were mobilized, nnd
the telegraph olllcers worked night and
day, though without discovering the
prisoners. At lust a subprofect named
Marongln appealed to Corbeddu by
means of one of his friends. Tho sub
prefect und the brlgund had an Inter
view, In which the official promised
Corbeddu anything he might wish on
condition that ho would get the Italian
administration out of a bad scrape.
Corbeddu at once uccepted the task of
liberating the Frenchmen, nnd within
twenty-four hours they wero delivered
safely Into the hands of tho author
ities. Corbeddu's professional prldo
was so great that he would accept
neither the 10,000 lire reward offered
him nor a free pardon, nor any other
compensation, considering himself suf
ficiently paid by having done In twenty-four
hours what ministers, prefects
and an army. of carabineers had been
unable to accomplish,
From that time ho gave up his mur
derous expeditions and enjoyed In peace
the fruits of his robberies. Ho kept
herds of cows and pigs and llocks of
sheep and Boats. Ho lived In n euve
on au ulmnst Inaccosslblo mountain
peak, to which the path was known
only to himself nnd his brother. Tins
