Introducing Himself.
Scottish country people call a
corpse “the body,” solemnly length
ening the word into “bo-ody.” This
mode of expression is due to re
ligious feeling. The object lying
dead is no longer to them their
relative or friend. He or she is
elsewhere, leaving behind merely
his or her husk or shell. A some
what ludierous illustration of this
use of the word occurred some time
ago before the sheriff of a northern
county, says a Scottish journal. He,
with the procurator fiscal and the
medical officer of the county, was
engaged in a country village inves
tigating the circumstances affecting
the death of a person found drown
ed. The corpse was in the room,
and there was considerable difficul
ty in preventing the neighbors and
friends of the deceased from crowd
ing in upon them. One man in par
ticular presented himself with so
earncst and confident an air that
the sheriff thought he might have
something to tell. “Well, my man,”
he said, “why have you come here?”
“Please, your honor,” the man
gravely replied, “I'm the body’s
brither.”
