He half repented of the deed, yet deemed it now too late to obviate it; and he threw himself on his bed in terrible emotion. His head grew dizzy, and a sudden faintness overcame him; he hesitated, and at length arose to ring for assistance, but found himself unable to stand.,"I got this at Kumassie," explained Jen, when he had fully exhibited the gruesome mechanism of the devil-stick.
