There, is, too, a Claimant story
with some dramatic points: Among
the criminal cases reported from the
French courts in 1780 is that of a
merchant of Toulouse, who in 1766,
being heavily in debt, bought the
corpse of a man resembling himself,
dressed it in his own clothes, locked
it up in his vacant chateau and
thlen decamlped to India. A month
later the body was found and hanti.
ly huried, and after a doe amount
ot mourning, the widow married
again. Fifteen years afterward the
debtor retorned with enough rubees
to pay off Iis creditors and to sp
port his old estate with splendor,
but the wile refused to recognise
him, anld the second hInusband cans
ed his arrest as an impostor.

While the meohanio may use

probable that the fareof theo frmer,

than that of the average, onsisting
more of the hbeavier and grsemr
kinds, as pork, cabbage, ussgs,
