On the 9th OF December. the son of a far
mer called Valentine. was tried at Dijon, in
France, for the murder of young female,
whom he had seduced, of the name of Anne
Eyrard. His family, in order to screen him,
circulated a report that The crime had been
committed by superanuated woman in
state of idiocy; known, however, to be mild
and harmless. This poor creature having
heard the report, and. on the next Sunday,
at the termination of the church service,
observing Valentine in the church yard
near the spot where the unfortunate girl
was buried, suddenly threw herself upon the
grave and cried ort--"Anne Eyrard. come
forth from thy tomb, and say which killed
you--Valentin or T." The strong emotion
which the murderer exhibited when he heard
this extraordinary invocation, was one Of the
circumstances which induced the jury to
convict him.
