Where Vendetta Still Prevails Code of Honor as It Is Enforced in Sardinia. Corsica and Elsewhere DIFFICULT TO STAMP OUT Most Persistent Disciples Are Among the Most Mild-Mannered and Most Hospitable People in the World —Ceremony of Reconcili ation. New York.—Vendetta still flourishes a many parts of the old world, but ji no place Is It more flrmly estab lished than In the Island of Surdluiu. Why It flourishes there is a mys tery still unsolved, for the gnidlni ans themselves are probably among the mildest mannered men In the world. Travel all over their Island and you will be received with the greatest hospitality. There are few Inns, except In the two or three chief towns, but Inns are not needed, for every door is open to the stranger, the best of fare Is of fered—nay, lavished with open hands —the fatted calf Is Instantly slain, the cellars are ransacked for the oldest wine. Indeed, you might almost start a vendetta by refusing liospltnllty or wanting to hurry away too soon! So long as you do not smile at the women folk you are an honored guest for a much longer time than you wish to remain. Rut the etiquette about women Is us strict as In any harem land In the East, and no intercourse Is allowed with strangers. Next to Sardinia In the vendetta business comes Corsica, where the peo ple, after all, are not very different. There Is plenty of bloodshed In Sicily, but It is organized by a secret so ciety nnd bus nothing to do with ven detta. Albunla runs the blood-feud on very similar lines nnd Albania's hereditary enemy, Montenegro, oddly enough, cherishes almost the same trudltlons, whereas the Serbians, the cousins of the Montenegrins, are bloodthirsty In quite a different way. It Is probably not un accident that feuds nnd feudal ism have the same derivation, and clannish traditions must have some thing to do with the custom, writes Herbert Vivian. Part of Their Code of Honor. The great difficulty that govern ments find In suppressing vendetta is thut Its disciples regard It as part of their code of honor. Men who go to church regularly nnd observe all the religious feasts—black-coated gentle men of Infinite respectability, who could be trusted anywhere with un told gold nnd frivolous females—nev ertheless consider it their sacred duty to slay the second cousin twice re moved of some one who has killed a member of tlielr family In legitimate self-defense. Indeed, there Is a stigma on their whole clan If blood has not been wiped out with blood. If many molars have not repaid a single tooth. It censes to l»e—it never is, in fact — a personui affair. It Is just primitive, savage justice. In Sardinia church nnd state have been frantically at work for genera tions trying to suppress the vendetta, but it is very slow work. From time to time, however, rec onciliations do tuke place. Sixty-five years ago there was a solemn cere mony of forgiveness between two fam ilies that had been at war for two cen turies, killing one another nnd de stroying one another’s cattle and farmsteads. It made an euormous sensation, and marked an epoch in the history of the island. Only the other day there was a similar event, for which the parish priest nnd the mayor of Tempio, amid the savage rockland of Angina, are jointly responsible. Almost endless negotiations preced ed the formal kiss of peace. No one wished to forego his vengeance; the honor of five hostile families was at stake. Again and again, for a whole generation, men and boys have been stabbed, and though everybody knew the culprits and all the reasons for the crimes, no one was ever punished by the law. Agreed to Attend Mm Together. Then some one having authority suddenly listened to reason. All the hostile families—the Leporis, the Pes, the Seuzzus, the Spezzigas and the Vusas—fur more hostile than the Mon tagues and Copulets, agreed to attend a service of reconciliation together. Their famous feud has been respon sible for no fewer than 75 homicides during the last 15 years. It all began with the murder of Prof. Pier Felice Stangoni, a widower who lectured at the technical institute of Sussarl. What he lind done is not quite clear. Some say he had flirted with a Miss Pes and then refused to marry her. Another story is that he was unin tentionally killed by a mischievous hoy from an unfriendly village. Any how, the professor was taking a coun try walk with his three boys, Albert, Mario and Arnold, when some one lurking in the thickets suddenly hit him on the forehead with a bullet from a catapult and killed him In stantly. There was a sensational trinl and the suspects were acquitted. A few months Inter, however, one of them, Martin Pes, was killed. Thereupon the authorities arrested Professor Stangonl’s futher-ln-law, Paul Lepori, a vigorous old man, and he was ac quitted for lack of evidence. Assas sinations followed with furious rapid ity. Nicholas Vasa was seriously wounded one day and killed the next. Members of the various families were found dead in lonely places or disappeared and were never seen ngaln. An Immense amount of prop erty was destroyed. Great numbers of innocent people went in daily fear of their lives. Ceremony of Reconciliation. Two hundred members came from far and near to attend the ceremony of reconciliation. The hoys of Tempio seminary wulked first in the procession. Then came Monsigor Sanna, bishop of Tem pio and Castelsardo, followed by the purish priest, the mayor with an Itul inn flug and an enormous crowd from the whole countryside. Penitential hymns were sung and mnss was cele brated in the open nir amid deep emo tion. Then Father Dellglos, a famous Franciscan preacher, spoke of the beauty of Sardinia, the hospitality of her people, ulways generous except when curried away by traditional ha treds. Me alluded to the 75 victims and invoked the blessing and pardon of heaven on the survivors. Then the members of the hostile families were divided into two long flies und went up side by side to re ceive tlie episcopal benediction. There was Paul Lepori, “Uncle Paul,” as he is known to the whole countryside, the luther-ln-lnw and alleged avenger of the first victim, now ninety years of age, and very hoary, but still erect ami vigorous. Beside him was Sulvadore Pes, the Old Steamship’s Back Is Broken A recent terrific wind nnd a torrential rain conspired to drive thla Mis sissippi steamer on the inud flats. The old vessel, one of the last of the stern driven variety for which the Mississippi was once famous, has been abandoned by her owners. Her back is broken and her sides are all wrenched. son of Martin Pes, whom old Leporl was accused of killing. Salvatore Is now some forty years of age. Then there were Mario and Arnold Stangoni, sons of the first victim, well nble to remember the horror of their father’s murder, Arnold In the uniform of an ardlto (storm troopers), with two sil ver medals earned by prowess In the wnr. After the benediction, old Paul Le porl and Salvatore Pes solemnly em braced nnd wept on each other’s shoulders, amid the Intense emotion and loud applause of the crowd. The kissing became general und there were solemn vows of mutual love and re spect. The Last Combat. This Is the story of the latest rec onciliation. Two families carried on a feud until they were both nearly de stroyed. They fought like wild beasts, concentrating every nerve, every emo tion, in the business of killing the tra ditional foe. Year after year, in am bush und open fight, members of both families fell victims of the Implacable rancor. Oddly enough, however, the two heads of the respective cluns, sturdy old men, remained unmolested. Youths and even children were laid low, but the chiefs remained, like stal wart ouks, undisturbed by the raging tempest of crime. At last they remained almost alone. A few more murders and they would have been the solitary representatives ot their slaughtered lines. They took no special precautions to guard against attack. In fact, one afternoon, one of them was riding quietly back to Sassarl, accompanied by a servant. A few miles from home a shot re sounded from behind a hill and he bit the dust. He shook himself and rose to his elbows, but he knew that his hour had struck. He called quietly to his servant. “Tuke off the saddle," he suid. When this was doue he took cover very stealthily behind It, pointed his gun In the direction from which death hud been let loose upon him. Then he bnde his sen-ant run to ward the town, shouting as he ran: "My master Is dead!" Deceived by Ruse. The roan who had fired the shot was completely taken In by this de vice. First, he peered out cautious ly ; then his whole body appeared above the hill. It wus the chieftain of the other family. The wounded inun took a long, de liberate aim. fired and saw with sat isfaction that he had hit his mark. The sen-ant came running back, re called by the shot, and to him the old man said grimly: "Tell them to bring two biers, for we are two deud men." And so it proved. They found the chieftain with his head resting on tHej hard pillow af forded by his sndQl&, ind. In death he still clung to his gun. After this last tragedy the few survivors of the two families consented to make peace, for It seemed to them that they had car ried out the law of vendetta to its bitter end. But vendetta Is In their blood—the very children play at vendetta, just as little Spaniards play at bull fights A trifling accident or a petty quarrel may easily lead to another feud last ing for centuries and spreading a reign of terror over whole provinces.
