More than once on her way home she caught herself reasoning that the poor boy had not been to blame at all that he could not help it that she had deserved nothing less. Her conscience speedily told her that in consenting to such a thought, she herself would be a murderess.
He seated himself on the lowest stair, and began to think. The woman had intended to murder him! She had lured him there with the premeditated intention of destroying him! And this was the mother of his bride, the woman whom he intended to call his mother-in-law! He was not dead, nor did he believe that he was like to die; but had she killed him, what must have been the fate of the murderess!
We learn that the murderess, who is a woman of dazzling and transcendent beauty and about twenty six or seven, is a niece of Senator Dilworthy at whose house she has been spending the winter. She belongs to a high Southern family, and has the reputation of being an heiress.
I lifted it up. There I beheld all that remained of the highly endowed Edward Newman, for by no other name did I know him. He had been poisoned through fiery jealousy. A cup, in pretended friendship, had been laughingly offered him. Unsuspiciously he had drunk of it. The Government seized the murderess, who paid the penalty of her crime with her life.
Arsinoe's execrations of her mother and sister came back to her memory, and the thought that the rosy lips of the twins and her darling Alexander could ever open to curse her, the idea that the children would ever raise their beloved hands to point at her, the wicked murderess of their father, with horror and scorn No, no, and again no!
I have invariably combated both these absurd assertions by quoting examples of fat people who were as mean, vicious, and cruel as the leanest and the worst of their neighbours. I have asked whether Henry the Eighth was an amiable character? Whether Pope Alexander the Sixth was a good man? Whether Mr. Murderer and Mrs. Murderess Manning were not both unusually stout people?
Was it fair that Lance Fleming should lavish the whole love of his life on a murderess? "What are you thinking so intently about, Mr. Ford?" she asked me. "Shall I tell you?" I asked. "Yes, by all means," she replied. "I am sure the subject is very grave, you look so unhappy." Now the time was come! That beautiful face would never look into mine again.
This in parenthesis, I hope not inappropriately. Where the selected victim, or victims, is, or are, feeble-bodied you will frequently find the murderess using physical means to her end. Sarah Malcolm, whose case will form one of the chief features of this volume, is an instance in point.
No; she didn't faint she just had a moment of dizziness, and called out." Regina came out, too evidently convinced that she had to deal with a murderess, and coldly asked that Mrs. Sheridan would please step back for a minute. Mrs. Sheridan immediately complied, but it was hardly more than a minute when she joined the girls again.
Don't look at me as if I were a murderess! I'm your best friend a friend in need. And don't choke down your food. Eat slowly. Fletcherize chew your food, you know. I know you're nearly famished, but you must gradually accustom yourself to a proper diet." He obeyed meekly. Patsy's face was calm, but her heart beat fast, with a thrill of fear she could not repress.
