Old Roman. u<«
) « pillory and tho Bocks a *
very ancient uaoieles of punishment,
ana all old books, and some which
are not so very old, allude to them
as commonly as we do to the prison.
The pillory consisted of an up
right post with s crosspiece, in
which were confined the neck snd
of the culprit, who was thus
made to stand exposed to the joers
of like populace, snd sometimes in
real dancer from missiles of si)
although usually only bad
eggs were thrown.
The pillory wss generally inflict
ed for some disgraceful crime,
which tended to make the specta
tors the less m erciful
’T h e stocks were so arranged ss to
confine the ankles, while the suffer
er was in a sitting posture, and were
generally inflicted for petty theft
or upon hardened tramps.
T h e ancient Romans used the pil
lory as well as the Persians, and it
is still in use in China, where cul
prits are made to walk aljout with
the head and wrists confined in a
broad plank, and the .offense for
which they are suffering affixed
to it.
There was sn old naval punish
ment, now disused, in which the cul
prit had his head through one end
of i barrel, his arms through holes
out in the sides, and was thus made
to wear his “ oaken jacket” amid the
gibes o f hia shipmates.
There is a story on record of
Ifithridates, a Persian soldier, who
boasted that he had killed Cyrus
the younger at the battle of Cunaxa.
For thia he waa condemned to be ex
posed to the sun in the pillory with-
dut food or water. In this condition
he is said to have lived eighteen
days.
■ & £ -
Many years ago the writer, when
in Afnoy, China, saw a man in the
pillory on a barren hillside exposed
to the full heat of the sun without
food or water, where he was to be
left until he died. H e had commit-1
tad a particularly atrocious murder.
Strange as it may seem, there was
no crowd gathered about the place,
and the few passersbv seemed only
to glance at him without stopping.
