Mtatt that bis testimony should be lm-

E this result, the lawyer took advat-
Lof Mr. Orest’s imperfect control of
the Envltsh language and a natural baah-
fetaas that rendered him easily aoniussd.

was vilosleBa; and mortified and cha-

Of course, tbe case was won by the plain
tiff; and the disappointment and mortifi

afterwards resented tbe conduct of the
lawysr by refusing to recognize him as an
acqnaicuuce.
Tbe foregoing happened some time be

I relate occurred. I whs then a bey of six

on a visit to tbe family ot a brother of our

Tile Confession of an Innatural Wife
and Mother—She is Married Three
'time., and Each Time Poison, her
Husband—Eight Murder, in Twelve
Years—First Tempted by a New
\ork Police Sergeant—Imprisoned
ior Lcife.
New Haven, January 11.
Lydia Sherman has been sentenced to
imprisonment for life, for the murder of
her husband, Horatio N. Sherman, by
p< ison. Contrary to general opinion, she
w.,s only convicted of murder in the sec
ond degreo, but exception was taken to
the evidence by her counsel, and sentence
was not given at the time. Since the trial
Mrs. Sherman has been confined in the
county jail, wher. she drew up a eonfes-
sion of the murders she committed by
poisoning with arsenic, hence tbe sentence
• -day by Judge Sanford. Tbe scene in
court was unaccompanied by any affecting
incidents, and after the delivery of the
charge the prisoner was immediately
pi iced in a sleigh and driven back to the
county jail, wheuce she will soon be tak n
to Wethersfield, to be there imprisoned
for the period of her natural life.
The following is the confession, devoid
of those parts not relating to her crimes :
THE CONFESSION.
I was bora near the town of Burling
ton, N. J., December 24, 1824. My mother
died when 1 was nine years old, and I was
sent to live with my uncle, Mr. John
Claygay. I never attended school much,
being able to go only about three months
in the year. At 1G years of age I went to
New Brunswick with my two brothers,
and afterward to live with the Kev. Mr!
Van Am burg in Jacksonville, 25 miles
from New Brunswick. 1 lived there for
th ree years, then returned to New Bruns-
w ck and learned to be a tailoress. I
w aked three months withontpay and was
then employed by a Mr. Owen. He was
a lass leader in the MethodiBt Church, o(
which I became a member. It was there
that I met Mr. Edward Struck, who was a
devoted Christian up to a tew months be
fore his death. I was his wife eighteen
years; he has been dead about eight years.
Our first child we called Lydia, and alter
her birth we went to New York and resid
ed near Elizibeth and Houston streets.
In New York we had two boys. After
ward we moved to Carmansviile where we
had four children born. At the end of
that time Mr. Struck obtained an appoint
ment on the Metropolitan Police force.
Six months later we lost a daughter, aged
twenty-two months, by tbe measles.
About this time my husband was trans
ferred to Manhattanville, and we moved
to 125th street. Then occurred our first
triiubie, which came about in this way;
THE FIKST TIIOUUI.ES.
A man came np to Stratton’s Hotel, on
the Bloomir gdale road, and made a dis
turbance in toe bar-room. Ha attacked
tbe bartender with a knife, and immedi
ately the cry of murder was sounded.
Just at this time the Manhattanville stage
came along, and on it was a detective,
wlio heard the cry. He rushed into the
hotel, but finding he was powerless to ac
complish anything he asked for the as
sistance of a policeman. There was noDe
mar, and ho endeavored to quiet the man
by talking to him, hot he could not suc-
ct i d. The mau appeared deranged. The
d otective struck him with a cane, bat
the man would not desist. He struck
the officer with a knife, when the latter
d ■ «w a pistol and shot the man dead.
The stage drove on and soon met Mr.
Struck, end as he was a policeman, the
driver told rum the circumstances about
the killing of i he man at the hotel. Mr.
St ruck started immediately for the hotel,
and when he reached there he found that
the fifth mtjbdek.
r\°,^ d 7i he ®' 8 unwell, and he ate
clams and drank cider with saieratns in
it. then ue became worse. Ou one oc
casion he made me drink cider and
a tragus, after which I became very nick
Fo n M y ’nr" nd 1 to k lo vomiting.
Finally Mr. Hnr.bnrt became worse, and
about five o’clock one morning the old
man died. Now I wish to say that I
never gave Mr. Hurlbnrt anything that
would cause sickness, thongb there may
have been arsenic mixed with the saieratns
which he put into the cider.
About two months alter Hnrlbnrt died,
1 beard that Horatio N. Sherman, of Bir
mingham, wanted me to take a little baby
h> board. I met Mr. Sherman one Sun
day morning. He introduced himself to
nie, and said that he had another object
m cal.ing besides getting me to take care
ot his baby. He wanted me as bis house
keeper, because his mother-in-law and his
daughter could not get along well to
gether. I said I would think abont it.
lwo weeks later he came again, and ot
tered to marry me. I told him we ought
to bo better acquainted. He said that he
was compelled to get some one, us be
c nld not have the old woman in the house,
as she was creating a constant disturbance!
H • then went away, and I n.d not see him
for three or four weeks; but at the end of
that time he toned me a tenant tor my
farm, which ended in my lending him
three hundred dollars.

THE MAN WAS DEAD.
Word was sent to the Manhattanville
Police Station, and the doctors gave it as
th-ir opinion that the man was deranged.
My husband reported at headquarters,
and soon after a ram r pievailed that he
would net arrest the man because he had
a pistol. This was incorrect, but the em
ployees of the hotel testified that Mr.
Struck was at the place and was afraid to
go in. The result was th^t he was dis
charged from the police force.
Then my Lusb«nd became down-heart
ed and discouraged. Capt. Hart tried to
get him back on the .force, but failed, and
then Struck, who bad always been a good
workman, did nothing but fret all the
time. Sometimes he would lie in bed for
seven or eight weeks without allowing me
to send for a doctor. One day he said he
wanted to see his daughter Gertrude, who
was married to a Mr. William Thompson,
sc I went to New York and took her up
to see him, tut he said very little to her.
G rtrude sent a doctor to see her father,
but tbe latter said be was not sick. Once
he put a pistol in his month and threat
ened to blow his head off. On another
day he tried to get a razor to cut his throat,
but I took it away from him. Then I sent
lor Capt. Hart, but when he came my
husband would neither look, speak, nor
kiive anything to do with him. Tbe Cap
tain said he was out of his mind, and ad
vised me to have him sent to an asylum.
MEETING THE TEMPTER.
One night after this he was acting very
badly, aud 1 called in Police Sergeant
Me , who lived in the lower part of
ourhouke. The Sergeant advised me to
put him out ot the way, as he would never
be any nood to me or himself again. I
asked him what he meant, and be told
mo to get a certain quantity of arsenic
aud give him some of it. I paid ten cents
for it, put it in some oat meal gruel, and
gave him some of it during the afternoon.
That night he was very ill, and at eight
o’clock the next morniDg he died.
THE MURDER OF HER FOUR CHILDREN.
The following July I made dp my mind
th.vt my two little children, Mary Ann,
six years old, and Edward, two years
younger, would be better off if they were
out of the way, so after thinking the mat
ter over for "several days I made them
some of the same kind of gruel their
father had ealtu. They only survived a
short time. * .
The doctors said that the children died
of gastric fever. They had not the least
suspicion of the troth.
MARRIED AGAIN.
[ continued to keep house, and had fonr
children with me at the time. My son,
George Whitfield, who was then fourteen
years of ago, wi.s living with me. In the
l.i;ttr part of August he was taken sick,
and I sent for Dr. Oaatt. Ho said the
b' v had painters’ coho, and as he did not
improve *1 became discouraged, and mix
ed some arsenic in his t«-a. He died the
next d)!}*, and he doctor said it was paint
ers’ colic.
Then my little danghter, Ann Eliza,
took the chills and fever aud was con
tinually sick. This made me downheart
ed and discour ged again. I had some
arsenic in the house which I purchased
in Harlem, and pat it in the medicine 1
bought for her to core tbe chills I gave
it to her twice, then she was taken sick as
tho others were, and died about noon fonr
days afterward, bhe was the happiest
child I ever saw.
1 then kept house until the following
M-ty, going out as usual to do nursing.
About that time L>dia. my joungest
daughter, went to New York with work,
was taken sick, r.nd after an illness of
twenty-one dajHshe died a Datura! death.
THE THIRD HUSBAND.
Iu July, 1870, I lent him three hundred
dollars more, aud on the 2d of September,
1870, we went to Mr. Sherman’s sister’s
house, in Bridgewater, Massachusetts,
and were married.
After we had been married about two
m inths, Mr. Sherman said one day that
b- winhed bis babe (Frank) would die, as
then the old woman should not stay
another day in the hon 0 e. I was full of
trouble, and not knowing what to do, I
Whs tempted to give him (Frank) some-
tl mg to get him oufc of tbe way, lor I
thought he would be better off. They had
arsenic in the house. The old lady had
used it before to poison rats. I put some
of it in some milk, and only gave it to
him once. Being quite feeble, he began
to be sick and to vomit. I sent for a doc
tor, but he said the child was not out of
d.iuger, though he was better. This was
in the forenoon. That night tho child
d ed at 11 o’clock. This was November
15. 1870.
MORE TROUBLE.
Instead of making matters better, every
thing grew worse. Mr. Sherman and his
m -ther-m-law kept constantly quarreling
about a piano, tor which she claimed Mr.
Sherman owed her $70. I sold my farm
for $1,100, of which I received $300 cash;
so I gave Mr. Sherman $100, told him to
pay her, which he did, and then the old
woman left os
Mr. Sherman then took to drink, ahd I
supported the family for about t»ix months.
D iring this time I found that he had dis
sipated the money I gave him, instead of
paying his bil's with it, so I h.<d to pay
o .t about $300 more for him. Tnen
came Christmas, and Ada devoted a good
dtttil of time in decorating the church. I
furnished her with all her clothes and
p.ud her dressmaking bills. Oa Chrisf-
ni.is eve Ad t was taken sick aud Dr.
B ardsley was again sent for. He pre
scribed a orandy-sling for her, but Mr.
S erman drank all the liquor I bought.
I could not keep a drop for Ada. The
n xt morning she was no better, and we
st nt for Dr. Dutton ol Milford. When
the doctor came Mr. Sherman was so
drunk that be could not walk straight.
Mr. Sherman asked me for $10 to pay tho
d iotor. I refused to give it to him, say
ing that I would pay tbe doctor myself.
T en he got mad aud went out.
STILL ANOTHER MURDER.
That made me feel so bad that 1 was
tempted to d » as I had done before. I
had some arsenic in the house, which I
mixed in her tea and gave to her twice.
Sue died the next morning.
Then Mr. Sherman began drinking
more than ever. He did very little for
the family, leaving me to pay for every
thing. He went ou in that way until quite
late in the winter. His brother Andrew
and wife, and his brother George came to
vi-it os, but that only made matters wor3e.
I tried to get Mr. Sherman to join the
temperance society, bat he kept on drink
ing. At last I joined a temperance so
ciety, and then George Sherman and my
husband joined it together. My husband
only kept it a few weeks, and then went
to drinking harder than ever. He next
sold my piano for $325, aud put $300 in
the bank in my name. Two weeks after
be drew it out and went to New Haven,
where he spent every cent of it. I sent
mv step-son. Nelson Sherman, to find his
father, aud one evening abont eight
o’clock he arrived. I met him at the
door and said, “I'm glad yon are alive.”
The next day being Saturday he remained
at home all day. Sunday he went out and
returned very drunk. Monday he went
ont again and returned in the evening.
He drank a cap of ehocolate, and then
went out io get some greens for dinner.
THE LAST MURDER.
While he was gone he was taken sick,
and he came home immediately. I had
about a pint of brand}’ in the nonse, and
I put some arsenic in it. That night he
drank it and the next morning be was
vtry sick. I did not mean to kiil him, I
only wanted to make him sick of liquor.
The next day he drank more of the bran
dy and was worse. 1 sent for Dr. Beards
ley aDd told him that Mr. Sherman had
one of his old spells. He continued to
gr iw worse, other doctors were called in,
but he died at eight o’clock the following
morning.—N. Y. bun.
Spiritualism in Memphis.
Judging from the Memphis papers the
good people of that city, of all classes,
have about gone crazy on the subject of
spiritualism. A professor by the name of
Foster is giving daily and nightly seaDces
there which attract immense crowds, and
is said to make the most astonishing de
velopments. As a specimen of his
spiritoal performances we give the follow
ing from the Avalanche:
HOVfr “SPIRITS” IDENTIFY THEMSELVES TO
THEIR FRIENDS AND HOW CLERGYMEN FOL
LOW saul’s footsteps.
The throng of persons seeking admission
to Mr. Foster’s seances increase each day.
Saturday morning a circle of seven meu
were with the medium, which was suc
ceeded by a circle of five, one of whom
was a lady.
The medium’s powers were in admira
ble play. All the kinds of tests mention
ed in Saturday’s Avalanche were given
with astonishing rapidity and clearness,
and in every in stance, save one, the tests
were declared by the sitters to be perfect
and satisfactory.
One sitter asked of his spirit friend
“Did you suffer much before you died?’’
to which the answer came: “Ye j , suffered
like hell. I am now happy and in a con
dition of development and progress, and
s d—d sight happier than I was here.
The spirit explained that he did not swear
in spirit life, but was permitted to em-
p’oy these expressions, habitual to him in
his earth life, as a test of his identity, to
the correctness of which his friend, the
sitter, gave bis assent.
At the close of this seance one of the
gentlemen present, after expressing his
periect gratification at the tests he had
witnessed, remarked that ho had been lor
in iny years a zealous member of the Meth
odic Church, and a belibver in its gen
eral doctrines; bnt that some years ago
he was thought to have died, and that
during the lew hours which he lay in the
death-trance the curtain was removed,
and he saw euough of what we call the
future life to know this eternal hell of
fire and brimstone, aboat whieh there is
so much talk, was all fol-de-rol.
Iu the next seance & gentleman asked a
female spirit what was tho lavorite air she
used to hum. The answer was:
“Polly, put the kettle on,
Let’s ill take tea,”
whieh the gentleman promptly declared
to be correct. Dariog this sitting all sorts
of names and precise dates were tarnished
with singular promptness, and a consider
able number of predictions were given.
Some of the questions aud answers were
remarkably piquant and significant, and
this was probably the most satisfactory
seance given by Mr. Foster since his arri
val in Memphis.
Spirit writing was a noticeable feature.
A name was called for, and the spirit hav
ing signified a wish to write it, the me
dium took a piece of blank paper and pen
cil in one hand, aud held tPern under the
table. Within ten seconds they were with
drawn, when the name appeared written
in reverse style, so that it was to be rtad
only ihrough the paper or by holding it
before a mirror.
During the day several clergymen in
terviewed the spirit world, apparently un
mindful of the Scripture injunction some
of ihem have been fond of quoting: “Seek
not udto them th .t have familiar spirits,”
etc., which only acids another to the evi
dences that thu world moves. After all,
they are perhaps only making “the com
munion of saints” a practical verity, in
stead of a mere “form of sound words.”

A Mexican Communist Distbict.—.An
other Ttjry critical case is that of the Dis
trict of Tepic, which, since the time of
the Empire, hud been subject to General
L zuda, and enjoyed a kind of independ
ence, which buffled all the exertions of
the Governor ot Jalisco to make it de-
peodeut on said State, to which it actual
ly belongs. Lozada was always described
as a Cacignt, who had the most unlimited
power over tho Indians of that Depart
ment, whom he had educated in the prin
ciples cf Communism till they had got the
b tter of him. They claim now all the
private lands iu the State as their proper-
tv, because their forefathers owned them
aud the Spaniards took them away by
fraud. The pretentions of the Indians
are so extravagent that they have assault
ed several haciendas, and even claim
the whole city of Tepic as built on
their ground. The natural const quence
was, that Lozada had to oppose the
ridiculous pretentions, and so they have
taken arms against their old liege lord.
Every peaceable citizen has thus been
compelled to side against the aborigines
and a war of races has become inevitable.
The question only remains whether Loza
da will relinquish the principles which he
has hitherto defended, or whether he will
place himself again at the head of his
race. —City of Mexico Cor. Alla Californian.

not a profitable venture, so I returned to
New York and went to live wish my step
daughter, Mrs. Thompson. Then I took
a situation with Mr. Cochran, who kept a
sewing machine establishment in Canal
street. There I became acquainted with
Mr. James Cartiss. He asked n e to go
to ritratlord, Conn., to take care of his
aged mother and k*-ep house for them.
I consented to go for eight dollars per
month, f lived there eight months. One
day Mr. John Fairchild, at whose store I
bought our groceries, asked me i» I would
like to keep house fora man who had just
lost his wife. Iu this way I became ac
quainted with Mr. Hnrlbnrt, who lived in
Coram, Huntington. After I had been a
few days with him he asked me to marry
him, which I did November 22,18G8 Th®
ceremony was performed by the ltev. Mr.
Morton in his own house. We lived hap
pily for tourteen months. About three
months alter we were married Mr. Hnrl-
burt made his will. He was subject to fits

President Tyler has become a resident of
Georgetown for the winter. Mr6. Tyler
is a convert to Bomanism, aud she has
placed her danghter at school in the con

party which went on board tbe Princeton
to witness tbe experiments with the big
gnn Mrs. Tyler (then Miss Gardner, of
New York) and her father were of the
party. She, with other ladies, after wit
nessing the firing, lelt that part of the
vessel but her father and other gentle
men lingered One more shot was fired
and the gnn borsted, Mr. Gardner being
one of those killed. That night six dead
bodies were laid out in the East Boom of
the White House. Not long afterwards
Miss Gardner became the wife of the
President. It is remembered how regal
she looked daring her husband s admin
istration, iD black velvet, with a coronet
of jet tipped with diamonds. To gratify
her children Mrs. Tyler is about dispos

[Cor. World.
The Danbury News says that a boy who
was told that he should always try to
cheer tbe aged, tried ’’three times three
and a tiger” on bis grandmother Christ
mas morning, and me old ^dy was sio
startled that she applied a box full oi
snuff on him. He looks upon the beauties
of nature with his left eye now.
I am most thoroughly convinced that
the Cotton Slates have not the population,
nor the capital, nor the industry to oc
cupy the soil, utilize the waterpower, de-
ve.op the mineral, or in any way concen
trate and fix the wealth which is yearly
dr-twn from their crops. What is made
simply goes to pay for the materials and
the use of capital by which it is made. A
very, very small part of the money made
stays with us. In fact the surplus is
small. From ux3-handles and boe-hand-
les, up to locomotives and railroad iroD,
and all tbe ten thousaud other articles in
use, whether made of wood or iron the
8011th seuds outside for them. There is
no help lor it, because we have not the
labor, either rnde or skilled, to make
these things among ns.
We can faintly conceive what Georgia
might be with her vast forests of liue
woods, suitable for all sorts of manufac
tures, and her great beds cf coal and iron,
if hhe had a population adapted to and
forced by circumstances to utilize all this;
and compelled to reconvert every surplus
thousand into manufacturing or mechani
cal enterprise, so as to keep money and
bread among ns.
Georgia must rouse up to some her
culean effort to change her destiDy, oi
she will go on iu tho miserable, one-idea
way of making a little corn, a good deal
of cotton and making little else—wearing
out her lands and acquiring new features
of dilapidation yearly. Private enterprise
alone can do nothing to change the pro
gramme. There is no capital or organiza
tion among our people to accomplish it.
There are no sufficient inducements as
yet held out by our Stale government,
evt n if we had among ns one or two hun
dred millionaires on the alert to reek new
investments. We cannot by merely indi
vidual action compete with the mammoth
corporations of the North and West, the
great railroad companies, wuth scores of
millions of capital stock and millions of
land, which they are willing to sell on ten
years’credit and to build towns and vil
lages on, and transport whole villages
from Europe to occupy, with their
preachers, teachers, doctors, shoemak
ers, tailors and all sheir machinery com
plete. This kiud of immigration is con
stantly going on. I have been told of
cases where individual citizens, holding
great tracts of country, have laid them
out in small farms and villages, built
houses, laid out streets, erected mills and
factories, and started the whole machmery
of society afresh, just as it was a few
months previous io Europe. The little
driblet of immigration to our State, for
merly talked about in the papers and in
conversation, u not worth noticing in
comparison with these comprehensive
systems. If Georgia expects to do any
thing as a State, and as a great State
should do it, she must stretch out tbe
arm of a giant. She must have her bu
reau of emigration in Europe—well pro
vided with every facility to disseminate
intelligence there. She should have a
burean of immigration here and provide
money to aid the immigrants. I hope
the whole subject will be presented, with
power, to tbe Legislature next month,
and that some grand action wiil be taken.

Without Food—He is Aroused anil
Saved by a Dog.
Dividend No. 13.
Central R. K. A Banking Co. of Georgia, i
Savana&u. i ecuozher 17, 1872. |
On the 15th day of last December, a
man named Andrew Peters left his heme
in Canada and came West in search cf
work. Upon arriving in Omaha be pro
ceeded to Plum Creek, on the line of the
Union Pacific Railroad, and, upon reach
ing that place he wished to go to the farm
of a man living eight miles trem the vil
lage. Not being acquainted with tbe
country he inquired tue way, and was di
rected to go across the creek and follow
a certain line. On the 24th day of De
cember he started on his short journey,
having but iittle idea that iu so snort a
distance he would stare death in the face.
After proceeding about four miles be made
the alarming discovery that he had sud
denly lost his way iu the blinding, drift
ing snow, which had swt-pt away all
traces of the road, and all the land
marks upon which he depended, the
wind having arisen after be had set out
from Plum Creek. What to do he did
not knew. There he was in the midst of
a dreary waste, with no house or place of
shelter in view, and yet be knew that he
was not more than four miles from his
starting place. Then his wandering be
gan, he hoping all the time that he might
accidentally observe some friendly habi
tation where he could gain shelter and in
formation. But alas! as each hour passed,
his hope failed, and hunger, against
which be had not thought it necessary to
provide, increased, and at the same time
he suffered terribly from the cold. E tch
minute seemed to hi-;; an hoar, and each
hoar a day, as he continued his fruitless
walk, which he was obliged to keep up
in order to prevent, him from lrpezing to
death. Three days and three nighh, he
thus wandered about, without food, with
out rest, and with but poor protection
against the biting cold and the piercing
winds. At last hope, which is said never
to leave the human breast while life re
mains, entirely deserted him, and he lay
down upon ihe soow and prayed to God
Almighty that help might come, as he
was completely exnansted. H.-j so n sank
into insensibility, and remained in that
slate he don’t know how long; bnt it
couldn’t have been any great length of
time, for he was aroused from his insensi
bility by something that seemed to warm
him np, aud, upon opening his eyes, he
di.^oovcred a large Newfoundland dog
licking his face aud his hands. In an
instant hope returned to him, and, gath
ering all his energies, he made an effort
to get upon his hands and knees, and
succeeded. The dog then commenced
jumping around him m a playful manner,
and set up a joyful barking, aud then
m>ide a short run as it to indicate to
Peter that, if he would follow L:m, he
would lead him to a place of safety. Peter
began following the dog, sometimes upon
his hands and knees, and at other times
Ht a hobbling gait. After proceeding a
half mile, he discovered sure enough a
farm-house in the distance, which he
finally reached. He was taken in by tbe
farmt-rfand his sou, and briefly telling his
story, he received their kindest attentions.
They palled off his boots, and as they did
so, portions of the flesh of his feet, which
were frozen, came off with them. Hi«
first and third tiugers, thumb, and tho
palm of his rignt hand, and his left ear
were also terribly frozen. The farmer and
his son gave him all the assistance iu
their power ; but there was no doctor at
baud, and consequently they could not
do much.
The farmer’s Sun bought Peter’s boots,
as he had no farther use for them, and
then broughtjhim to Plum Creek, he hav-
determined to return heme. He had
bnt little money, but with tho amount
realized from the sale of his boots, and
other little sums collected for him, and
with a supply of provisions given him by
the inhabitants of Plum Creek and the
passengers, he managed to reach this city
yesterday on the Union Pacific train from
the West; after having suffered untold
agonies.
On his arrival here his case was men
tioned to Capt. Payne, and he at once
furnished him quarters at the Emigrant
House, where he now is, but from which
he will probably be take to Mercy Hos
pital, as it is not likely that he can sur
vive. His homo is iu Canada, not far
from Detroit, and be has a wife and two
children, and also a brother at Grand
Junction, near Detroit. He is entirely
penniless, and wishes to go to his home
an-i die there, if die he must.
The story of his wanderings, bis suffer
ings from hunger and cold, his dropping
into insensibility, and bis rescue by the
dog—:as thrillingly told by himself--was
a most interesting narrative, and one that
at times would make the very bloovl of the
listener rnn cold.
At a Meeting of the Board of Direc
tor e* this day, it was determined that the Divi
dend of $5 per share, declared ou tbe 3d inst.,
