she knew hers husVand 1,11a5 dead, as
she had been warned of his death in
a dream. The circumstance is curi-

ever the explanation, this case of a
dream coming true is only one of
many well authenificated instances.

the landlord of the inn in the village
close to Curraghmore, a man rush
up and said there had been a mur-
der an the hills. Then it must be the
little one, said the landlord; at
which Lord Waterford becatne very,
suspicious, not unnaturally. The,
landlord proceeded to explain that in
the night he dreamt that two men
had come to the inn, and that the
taller of the two had murdered the
shorter with a very curious knife.
He told his dream to his wile, who'
laughed at him. But, to his horror,
the men he had seen while asleep,

curious knife to cut up his food.'
They left, and soon afterwards news;

Dreams have been more than once'
the means of preventing a murder,.
as in the case of the wife of one of
the Rutherfords of Edgerston, itt
Roxburghshire. Dreaming that an
aunt, who had brought her up and'
who lived in Fileshire, was going to
be murdered, she, very much against
her husband's wish, went off to see
her relative. 'When she arrived the
door wasopened by the 10811 who,,
according to her dream, wavoing to,
Commit the murder. Mrs. Ruther-
ford slept in her aunt's room, and
arranged for her two cousins to be in
the adjoining room. And the 'pre-
caution was justified, for in the night,
the butler tided to enter, but Mrs.
Rutherford threw open the door, and
called her nousins. The man had a
coal -scuttle, in which was a large
knife, with which he confessed he
had intended to murder his mistress
to obtain the rents that she had: just
received.
