THE CHILDREN IN THY WCOD. w
—=ai ANY years ago, there resided,
Ki in the county of Norfolk, a
gentleman and his lady, who
to htemet! had two children; the eldest,
a. oie about three years old; and the
youngest, a girl, just two.
These little ones were good. tempered
and very kind to each other. Indeed, _
they often walked in the garden, or ~
played at a game together, and then they _
seemed quite happy.
The father and mother were thankful
to see their two little ones so fond of eagh
other, and hoped to live to see them old |
enough to take care of themselves.
4 THE CHILDREN
Some business which the father of
’ these good children had to attend to,
obliged him to leave home for a short
time; while away, he caught a very se-
vere cold, and when he recovered, he
did not remain in good health very
long, for a severe fever followed: shortly
afterwards, he grew much worse, and his
lady was so grieved at his sufferings, and
was so fatigued by constantly attending
upon him, that she became sick also. So
ill were they both, that their lives were
despaired of.
The gentleman’s brother, as soon as he
heard the news, hastened to the dying
UN

parents, whom he found very near to
their last moments.
“Brother,†said the dying man,—and —
here he pointed to: his little children,—
“in a few hours they will be orphans,
with none but God and you to protect
them. Here is my will; I have provided .
for them, and not forgotten you. Bea
father to them both.†_
Then turning towards his dear infants,
he gave them a last. kiss. The lady did
the same; and anont lan after, they both
died.
‘When the funeral was over, the two
little innocents were removed to their

" va eC a
uncle’s house, where they were treated
very kindly for some time.
When the uncle had kept them about
a year, he forgot the solemn promise he
had made to be good to them both; the
only thought that now dwelt upon his
mind was, that if he could get rid of
them, he might take possession of all
their property.
The wicked uncle soon put his cruel
intention into effect. Two bad men un-
dertook, for a sum of money, to take the
two children into a wood, and there kill
and bury them both.
A coach was hired for the purpose,
IN THE WOOD. 7
into which the unsuspecting innocents
were put; one of the villains acted as
coachman, the other sat in the coach,
between little William and Jane.
The pretty prattle of the two little
infants made such an impression on the
man who rode with them, that he re-
pented of the part he had taken, and
thought he would save their lives.
When they reached the wood, the
children were taken out of the coach, to.
play about, as they were told.
~ And now the men began to dispute
about saving their lives. They could
not agree, so fell to fighting, and in the

struggle, a blow from the.one who wished
to save the children,, killed. the other on
the spot. |
The man then led the terrified chil-
dven, whom now he knew not what to do
with, a little further on, and then told
them to wait till he came.back with some
cakes: but he never came to them again.
The poor little orphans waited, till at
last they felt. very hungry, and, as night
came on, they shivered with cold. They
wandered about, crying bitterly, and. now
and then picking blackberries that. grew
within their reach; till at last’ tired,
hungry, and cold, they laid. down. under
IN THE WOOD. 9
a wide-spreading tree, and throwing their
little arms round each other’s necks, sob-
bed themselves to sleep. They never
woke again: for, exposed to the pitiless
cold, they died—deserted and unknown.
The cruel uncle, thinking the children
had been killed, as he desired, reported
that both children had died in London,
and then took possession of their fortune.
But the ill-gotten riches did him no
_ service, for, soon after, his wife fell ill
_and died, and his two sons were ship-
wrecked at sea. His losses affected his
mind, he neglected his business, and
every day grew poorer and poorer.
10 THE CHILDREN
The man who would not, for pity, kill
the little children, was about this’. time,
tried, and condemned to death, for rob-
bery; then he confessed the sad story of
the two little mnocent orphans. This
soon reached the uncle’s ears, who being
already broken-hearted, sunk under the
shock, and being carried to his bed in
slay anguish of mind, died the same
ay.
Search was immediately made in the
wood, and, im a few days, the bodies of
the two little babes were found, covered
with leaves. | |
On a bush, near to their cold grave,
IN THE WOOD. Bi
seme Robin Redbreasts had built their
nests: and it seemed almost as if these
pretty birds kept watch, and sung over
their graves. Indeed, many think that
these pretty birds did bring the leaves
which made the grave of the Children
in the Wood. |
