A Story of Italy,
Traveling through Italy, a party of us
stopped one misty summer day at the
little town of Pisioja. Nest morning a
storm kept us in doors. As I stood at
the window, watching the torrents of
rain, 1 saw a stream of people hurrying
in one direction, despite the bad.
weather.
"Where are all those people going?"
I asked the landlord.

Giovanni's brother testified further:
"Two nights before Giovanni was found
murdered in bed I went home with him
from the pasture. I had been up en
the mountain for more than a week
with my herd. Among other news of
the village, Giovanni told me of two
Englishmen who were passing some
mays here. He intended, so be told me,
to transact some business with one of
them, but what sort of business he kept
secret. When we reached the village
Giulia came to meet us, and greeted us:
gayly and cordially, She tack a, bundle

cruel. Tell us, Giulia, tell us, why did
you do it?"
During the mother's entreaties Giulia
softened, her bosom heaved, her eyelids
rose and sank again, and her lips trem-
bled. She drew her 'mother close to
