Before "The Orient Express" there was...The Rome Express. The very words conjure up a romantic time when travel, at least for those who could afford a compartment in a first class car, was elegant and refined. One could board the night train in Rome, dine along the way, sleep in comfortable accommodations and wake up at the station in Paris refreshed and ready to go. This is the picture that Major Arthur Griffiths paints in "The Rome Express." Of course, not everything can be expected to run smoothly, especially when a body is discovered in one of the compartments. Who was he? Who was his murderer? The Countess? The English General? His brother the clergy man? The maid who has disappeared? Is the French justice system up to solving the crime? This classic book was edited and published by Resurrected Press.

In the Paris of the first half of this century there was no darker, dingier, or more forbidding quarter than that which lay north of the Rue de Rivoli, round about the great central market, commonly called the Halles. The worst part of it, perhaps, was the Rue Assiette d'Etain, or Tinplate Street. All day evil-looking loafers lounged about its doorways, nodding lazily to the passing workmen, who, blue-bloused, with silk cap on head, each with his loa under his arm, came to take their meals at the wine-shop at the corner; or gossiping with the porters, male and female, while the one followed closely his usual trade as a cobbler, and the other attended to her soup. By day there was little traffic. Occasionally a long dray, on a gigantic pair of wheels, drawn by a long string of white Normandy horses in single file, with blue harness and jangling bells, filled up the roadway. Costermongers trundled their barrows along with strange, unmusical cries. Now and again an empty cab returning to its stable, with weary horse and semi-somnolent coachman, crawled through the street.

Excerpt: ...give you my life; I would lay it down freely for you." He could find no words to thank her for such un-selfish devotion, but he pressed her to his heart again and again. He still held Mariquita's hand, and was soothing her with many endearing expressions, when La Zandunga, accompanied by Tio Pedro, returned. The lovers flew apart, abashed at being surprised. McKay expected nothing less than coarse abuse, but no honey could be sweeter than the old people's accents and words. "Do not mind us," said La Zandunga, coaxingly. "A pair of turtle-doves," said Tio Pedro: "bashful and timid as birds." "Sit down, good sir," went on the old woman: "you can see Mariquita again. Let us talk first of this business." 249 "You want horses, I believe?" said Tio Pedro. "I can get you any number. What price will you pay?" "What they are worth." "And a little more, which we will divide between ourselves," added the old man, with a knowing wink. "That's not the way with British officers," said McKay, sternly. "It's the way with ours in Spain." "That may be. However, I will take five hundred from you, at twenty pounds apiece, if they are delivered within three days." Tio Pedro got up and walked towards the door. "I go to fetch them. I am the key of Southern Spain. When I will, every stable-door shall be unlocked. You shall have the horses, and more, if you choose, in the stated time." "One moment, Se

The Rome Express, the direttissimo, or most direct, was approaching Paris one morning in March, when it became known to the occupants of the sleeping-car that there was something amiss, very much amiss, in the car. The train was travelling the last stage, between Laroche and Paris, a run of a hundred miles without a stop. It had halted at Laroche for early breakfast, and many, if not all the passengers, had turned out. Of those in the sleeping-car, seven in number, six had been seen in the restaurant, or about the platform; the seventh, a lady, had not stirred. All had re

Excerpt from Non-Criminal Prisons: English Debtor's Prisons and Prisons of War, French War Prisons, American War Prisons; With References to Those of Other Lands Imprisonment for debt had its origin in the wish to foster and protect trade. The creditor was per mitted when he had proved his debt to recoup him self by laying his debtor by the heels. Yet in Eng land the practice was held by jurists to be an un doubted invasion of the Bill of Rights It was distinctly laid down that no court of justice, whether at common law or statute law, possessed the power to deprive an individual of his personal liberty for anything less than serious and atrocious crime. Still the right was usurped and exercised by specious means. Sellon says in his Practice, They obtained jurisdiction by a mere fiction over actions of debt, detinue and causes of a like nature. The judgment pronounced in English courts against a debtor was merely to the effect that he should pay the debt and costs, and it was incidental thereto that if he does not pay an execution will issue against his property. But no mention of im prisonment was included in the judgment, for which there was, in fact, no authority.

Excerpt from Spanish Prisons: The Inquisition at Home and Abroad Prisons Past and Present A considerable portion of this volume is de voted to the Spanish Inquisition, which was, for three centuries, the most important force in Spain. Thousands were condemned by its tribunals, and its prisons and punishments make up a large part of the penal history of that country. Much exaggeration has crept into the popular accounts, but the simple truth must cause a shudder, when read to-day. The institution was created to deal with heresy, that is, with a departure from the accepted canons. The idea that there can be unity in diversity was not understood. The spiritual and the temporal powers were closely related, and bishop and king, pope and emperor, all believed that uniformity was necessary. Hence, heresy was everywhere treated as high treason not only to the Church but to the State as well. The Spanish Inquisition was a state affair as well as an ecclesiastical court.
